How Does The Animal Feed Mill Equipment For Sale Work?

As the above picture shows, the main sections of the animal feed pellet mill equipment for sale are the crushing and mixing section, pelletizing section, and the cooling and packing section. The main equipment of a complete animal feed mill equipment for sale includes feed grinder machine, feed mixer machine, animal feed pellet machine, pellet crumbler, counterflow pellet cooler, screening system, automatic packing machine, conveying equipment, etc.

Firstly put the raw materials of a specific proportion into the screw conveyor. Then the raw materials would be crushed into powder by the feed grinder machine. After that, the powder would be completely mixed in the feed mixer machine.

After mixing, the powder is conveyed into the conditioner by the variable frequency feeder. And in the conditioner, the powder is fused with steam. After reaching a certain temperature and moisture, the powder enters the pelletizing chamber. Then the powder is strongly squeezed by the ring die and the pressure roller to form pellets. Under the strong compression of the ring die and the pressure roller, the granules are formed and then cut into the desired length by the cutter.

Then, the conveyor puts the pellets into the cone bucket. The pellets pass through the cone bucket and are discharged into the counterflow pellet cooler. Then the pellets get through the screening system. After sieving, the pellet can be packed.

The Working Processing Of The Animal Feed Mill Equipment For Sale

A complete animal feed manufacturing plant includes pre-cleaning system, crushing system, mixing system, pelletizing system, cooling system, screening system, and packing system.

Pre-Cleaning And Crushing System Of The Animal Feed Mill Equipment For Sale

The raw materials can be corn, wheat, maize meal, sorghum, soybean meal, cassava, oat, etc. The first step of a complete cattle feed processing plant is cleaning. The function of cleaning is to remove the impurities of raw material, such as paper, rope, clods, and iron filings, so as to protect the equipment from damage. The equipment usually used in this process are powder sieve, drum-type pre-cleaner, and permanent magnet.

This process is crushing the raw materials into powder for subsequent processing. Through crushing, the pellets can be more easily absorbed by animals. After removing the impurities, the raw material gets into the feed grinder machine to be crushed. The crushed material is transferred by the bucket elevator to the next section. This section’s main machine is the feed grinder machine.

Mixing System Of The Animal Feed Mill Equipment For Sale

Material batching is designed according to the nutritional needs of different animals, with the accurate weighing of various ingredients. The mixing system is mixing the raw materials with some nutrients that animal needs. The material of a specific proportion gets into the feed mixer machine. They are fully and evenly mixed. Then the finished pellets contain balanced nutrients.

Pelletizing System Of The Animal Feed Manufacturing Plant

This is the vital section of the whole animal feed mill equipment for sale. The main equipment used in this process is the animal feed pellet machine. After mixing, the powder is conveyed into the conditioner by the variable frequency feeder. And in the conditioner, the powder is fused with steam. After reaching a certain temperature and moisture content, the powder enters the pelletizing chamber. Then the powder is strongly squeezed by the ring die and the pressure roller to form granules and then the pellets are cut into the desired lengths by the cutter.

Cooling And Screening System Of The Animal Feed Mill Equipment For Sale

After granulation, the feed pellets get through the cooling and screening system. The main equipment of this section is a counterflow pellet cooler and screening system. After pelletizing, the feed pellets get through the counterflow pellet cooler. The equipment can cool pellets from 80℃ to slightly above room temperature for 3-5℃. Then, one part enters the packing machine, and the other too large or too small is repeatedly crushed or pelletized.
