How To Increase The Density Of Feed Pellets?

1. Adding sugar thickeners
Adding sugar thickeners is a common method to increase the density of feed pellets. It can promote the binding force of feed particles and prevent feed from falling and wasting due to excessive gaps between particles. The addition of sugar thickeners needs to be selected according to the type of feed and the needs of the animals being raised. For poultry and pig feeds, the use of easily digestible sugar thickeners such as maltose or glucose is better.
2. Using high-pressure granulation technology
High-pressure granulation technology is a relatively new feed finishing technology. It can use high pressure to compress granular materials into high-density particles, thereby increasing the particle density and shape regularity of the feed. In addition, high-pressure granulation technology can also improve the digestibility and nutritional value of feed, further improving breeding benefits.

3. Use special granulation machinery
There are many types of granulation machinery on the market, some of which are special machinery that can increase the density of feed pellets. For example, a double-roll extrusion granulator can process feed particles into high-density spherical particles by tumbling and extruding, while a ring die granulator can process feed particles into high-density and high-fullness spherical particles at high temperature.
Since the density of feed particles directly affects the digestion and absorption of feed and the cost of livestock and poultry farming, the method of increasing the density of feed particles is highly practical and universal. The methods introduced above can all be used in actual production, but before using them, it is necessary to understand the type of feed and the needs of livestock and poultry farming in detail, and choose the appropriate method to increase the density of feed particles.
