Introduction During the feed pelleting process conditioned feed mash is passing through the pellet press die where animal feed pellets are formed by rheological properties of the mash and different mechanical forces applied on that mash. Different sized animals eat different sized feed, therefore cutting, thus uniformity of feed pellets is essential procedure for feed producers. In the end...

INTRODUCTION The United States is the largest producer of beef in the world, with over 11 million head of beef cattle in feedlots at any given time (as of May 2020; USDA, 2020). Corn is one of the most important ingredients in feedlot cattle diets because it is in expensive and energy dense. Mechanical processing of corn has been used in the feedlot industry for decades to increase starch digestibility, and, conse quently, improve growth performance and carcass characteristics...

Introduction Over the last two decades the U.S. fuel ethanol industry grew exponentially. Now, large quantities of ethanol coproducts, are commonly available as feedstuffs for livestock both in the USA and in international markets. As described elsewhere, ethanol coproducts are added to livestock diets (both ruminants and monogastrics) primarily as sources of protein and energy, but other nutrients also, including spent yeast cells. Energy is provided by fat, fermentable fiber, and...

I. INTRODUCTION Currently, the majority of feed used in the production of broilers is fed in pelleted or crumbled form. One of the major issues in the manufacture of pellets is the application of high conditioning temperatures. The need to reduce potential levels of feed-borne pathogens such as salmonella and campylobacter for feed safety and to achieve high pellet quality has led to the application of relatively high (between 80 and 90 ºC) conditioning temperatures during...
