The correct use of feed pellet mill

Nov 17, 2022

Cattle and sheep straw feed pellet machine is a machine for making pellet feed, which is widely used in recent years in the production of feed for pigs, cattle, sheep and fish. For the use of pellet feed machine, many friends also said that it is very simple and does not require any professional skills.


  However, many times look at the simple things, is not simple. The operation of the cattle and sheep straw feed pellet machine is to feed from the loading port, and then the pellet machine operates and the pellets come out from the discharge port. It is true, but there are a few small points to note in the use of the process.

  1. Materials need to be crushed in 6mm or less


  Material crushing is a necessary operation before the feed pellet machine pellets. Only after the use of feed crusher crushed materials can be pressed with the pellet mill. This is known to everyone. But crushed into what, we are more confused. Generally speaking, the crushing size of the material is related to the diameter of the pellets to be pressed. You want to suppress the diameter of the particles, then, often crushed particle size is also this number. For example, if your material suppression is 5mm, then the material needs to be crushed in 5mm or less.


  But often in the process of use, it is not so strict. Feed pellet mill manufacturers recommend that you crush the material below 6mm, which can be applied to all feed suppression.


  2. Moisture needs to be kept at about 13%


  Many people do not know about this point before using the cattle and sheep straw feed pellet mill. Many people feel that as long as the material, crushed, and then can be pressed with the pellet mill. In fact, this is not the case. The pellet feed machine is dry in and dry out, which means that the pellet machine has strict requirements for moisture.


  Feed pellet mill manufacturers recommend that you keep the material moisture at about 13%. This moisture is very low, so it is often required that the material needs to be dried out if it is relatively wet before it is pressed.


  3. Need to even out the feeding speed


  This point, many people do not pay attention to. Whether the feed pellet mill is fed at a uniform speed is related to whether the pellet mill works normally and whether the suppression of pellets is carried out normally. If the feeding is fast, it is easy to bore the machine. If the feeding is slow, then it is easy to cause the pellet mill to run empty. So keep feeding at a uniform speed can ensure the normal operation of the machine and can improve the efficiency of the pellet mill.


  If you think the manual feeding is troublesome, you can use the screw feeder to replace the manual feeding.
