Particle size manipulation has recently become a “hot topic” as a means to improve the efficiency of poultry live performance. Interest has been driven by the juxtaposition of classic theory (i.e. finer grinds lead to improved digestion) with the relatively modern idea that coarse ingredients are necessary to complement the natural design and function of the gastro-intestinal tract (GIT). As with most animal performance research, evaluating the impacts of feed particle size...

What is the difference between the flat die and the ring die? 1. Feeding mode The flat die granule machine enters the pressing chamber vertically by the weight of the material itself, and can be uniformly fed. The ring die granule machine adopts forced feeding, high-speed rotary centrifugal distribution into the granulating chamber, and distributes the material through the scraper. Uneven material 2. The pressure is in the mold of the same diameter. The diameter of the flat-die pressure...

How to granulate the flat die machine? Where are the advantages? During the granulation process, the rotary hopper located in the upper part of the flat die granule spreads the material evenly on the surface of the die, and then the material is pressed into the die hole by the rotating pressure roller and extruded from the bottom. The rod-shaped feed extruded from the hole is cut into the required length by a cutting roll and then discharged through the discharge port. advantage: 1. Simple...

Grinding. Grinding must be carried out reasonably and fully before using the new flat die machine (or replacing a new set of abrasive tools). The grinding method of the test machine is: generally, 5 kg of bran, 5 kg of engine oil, and 25 kg of fine river sand are mixed and put into the machine, and the raw materials are put into normal production after repeated extrusion for nearly 60 minutes. The finished granules prepared by grinding have smooth surface, no cracks, no granules, internal...

Working principle and introduction of flat mold  How the pellet machine works (pressing powdered raw materials into cylindrical pellets) Based on the principle of circular motion, the template and pressure roller are specially treated with high-quality alloy steel. The spindle and flat die drive the pressure roller under the action of friction force. The material is gelatinized at high temperature between the pressure roller and the template, and the protein is coagulated and...

1. Introduction Starch and its derivatives are used as ingredients and it is the main component in bakery products. It is also added in low quantities as additives to improve the sensory characteristics of a large number of manufactured foods. The products resulting from the hydrolysis of starches (glucose syrup or maltose, maltodextrins) and isomerization (iso-glucose or fructose) are used in the industries of candy, sweets, chocolates, cakes, pastries, as...

  • The role of conditioner in pellet feed processing
Conditioning is a process of hydrothermal treatment of powdery materials before pelleting of pellet feed. Domestic and foreign studies show that conditioning is one of the important factors affecting the quality of pellet feed, and it accounts for about 20% in the overall quality of pellet feed.

Pellets cost money, and good pellets cost more money. Operators are constantly challenged for maximizing production while improving product quality. Feed formulation, particle size, die selection, cooling, etc. can help them meet this challenge, but controlling the conditioning system is a pre-requisite for the production of quality pellets and optimizing production. The conditioning process is the most important component of any feed pelleting system, as far as pellet...
