Feed Pellets Machine by Extrusion System

Feed Pellets Machine by Extrusion System - The success of the farm business is largely determined by three factors are just as important is the breeding, feeding and management. However, if you look at the total cost of production of industrial agriculture, the animal feed contribution is the highest at about 75% of them.

Quick farms in Indonesia led to growing food needs. These conditions give rise to new problems in the manufacturing process of feed pellets. Feed pellets have a very complex composition. Its composition is fish meal, corn meal, flour, bran, tofu and vitamins. We must mix these ingredients into one. At that time, the material mixture pellets used still shaken manually by hand and some use a blender.

Manual stirring produce granules are less homogeneous with respect to the use of a mixer. However, these two ways, the pellets produced as irregular massive clots, when that is too large already dried up, we have to reprocess or to destroy. The feed pellets machine so necessary to use the extrusion system, wherein the granules produced in the form of small granules is more homogeneous.

Construction of Feed Pellets Machine

Construction of feed pellets machine as seen in the image below:

Extrusion Concept of Feed Pellets Machine

Screw extruder with pairs of cylinder, while the pellet raw material through in the hopper and is between extruder and cylinder. When extruder turns on the stationary cylinder, it will push out the pellet raw material.

Principle of Feed Pellets Machine

The electric motor drives the main shaft through the v-belt transmission. Extruder promoting exploitation of raw materials pellets placed in the main shaft. The pellets feedstock material put in the hopper and leads to screw extruder in the cylinder. Screw extruder will stir the pellets raw material in the cylinder at the same time push it to the forming filter. Then exit through the funnel outlet in the form of granules pellets.

Operations of Feed Pellets Machine

How to run feed pellets machine are:

1. Prepare raw material, such as fish meal, corn meal, flour, bran and other materials.
2. Combine all the raw materials into a container.
3. Turn on the machine by pressing the ON button.
4. Put mixture of the raw materials in to the feeder.
5. The extrusion system will process the raw material automatically and the row material will out through the filter in the form of granules.
6. Prepare a container to the filter for receiving the granules pellets.
7. If the raw material in the feeder less immediately refilled.
8. Turn off the machine if the decision-pellets are complete.
9. Ensure that all products come in pill form when the machine is off.
10. Clean the machine from rest of the raw material to prevent oxidation.
