Poultry Feed Pellet Making Process

Poultry feed pelletizing process is a key link in feed processing, which directly affects the quality, nutritional value and feeding effect of feed. The core process can be divided into four major steps: raw material crushing, mixing, pelletizing, cooling and post-processing, the following is a detailed description of the specific process:

• Crushing

This is the first step to ensuring all the large grains are crushed into powder forms. The pellet mill has a grinding machine that is specifically for the crushing purposes. Maize meals, broomcorn, wheat, beans, oilseed meal, soya bean meal may be in large grains and hence must pass the process. They are taken to the crushing machine where they are crushed into fine powder. Without this process, it might be next to impossible to make pellets.

• Mixing

This is where all the ingredients are mixed. The mixing machine is known as 9HLP vertical mixing machine. It has a large barrel where all the ingredients are put in different proportions. With the help of the machines, the powder is mixed in different proportions to form one mixture which is known as feed mesh.

• Making pellets

The pelletizing system consists of a pelletizer for poultry feed which is used to extrude the feed web and make pellets. It is capable of making pellets of uniform size, including the same diameter and length. This ensures that the poultry feed pelletizer produces the required sizes for different animals to ensure that what is needed is provided and waste is avoided when feeding. Our feed pelletizer is widely used in small chicken feed production line and small cattle feed pelletizer.

• Cooling

After crushing, mixing and pelletizing the final process is cooling. The machine used here is the KLN series counter flow type cooler. The machine is small in size and convenient when transporting and installing. At the pelleting system, the pellets tend to produce heat which ranges from 70 to 85 degrees. This heat must be reduced to room temperature to meet the storage requirement. Without cooling process, the hot pellets would produce mildew resulting to damage of the pellets. With a cooling fan in place, the pellets pass through the cooling area and their temperature is reduced to harmless levels. The pellets are then packed and stored in a cool dry place.
