Welcome to contact us directly to get the more information on making animal feed pellets from hay! Adjusting the water content of the hay : One must measure the water content of the hay first, and then add water to the processing requirements of the water content. Pellet feed mill is usually used for making pellets from hay for its effect of mixing by a feed mixer machine and squeezing out in the process of rolling grass.
The temperature of the pellets meal can extend to 80 degrees under normal conditions. Due to low water content, the pellets made from hay are worth long term storage without getting musty. All sorts of dissimilar nutrients pellets can be combined to comply with the nutritional requirements of the respective livestock, and the pellet size is changeable by the rolling machine by the prerequisites. Hay Pellets Production Process. If you are planning to make animal feed pellets from hay , there are two options for you.
Small scale feed pellet machine : The current hay pellet machine is typically compiled of stirring, pressure, transmission and the frame sections. You can buy a small feed hammer mill or feed crusher match to your feed pellet mill. When ready to make feed, you grind coarsely the corn and peas, dump in the premix, and add the small grains whole. You can mix thoroughly by hand, then feed immediately or store, for a few days only, in a covered bin. The steam temperature and the time that mash feed stays in the conditioner have major influence on the durability of the produced pellets.
The minimum time that feed should stay in the conditioning tube to produce durable pellets is 30 seconds. Long time conditioners, in which the feed can stay in the conditioner for about minutes, can be used to improve pellet stickiness.
Pellets are produced via roll pressing of the hot mash against metal die. Thicker dies long die channels have a positive impact on pellet durability due to increasing the friction time between feed particles and die wall with subsequent more starch gelatinisation. Most of starch gelatinisation occurs when feed passes through the dies. A similar result can be obtained by using small hole dies. This means that dies of 60 mm thickness are better than those of 50 or 40 mm thickness, and that dies with holes of 3 mm diameter are better than those with holes of 5 mm diameter.
However, using thicker or small holes dies have negative impact on pellet throughput. Additionally, increasing the distance between roll and die from 0.
The cooling machine can be either a horizontal or vertical type. Quick cooling leads to removal of more moisture and heat from the surface of the pellets than their core, and the resultant pellets will be brittle.
On the other hand, prolonged cooling produces very dry pellets that can be exposed to abrasion and can be of low palatability. Pellet quality can be influenced by several factors, including the ingredients, diet formulation and processing.
A good rule of thumb is the pellet quality factor PQF , that each feed ingredient has. From experience we know that starch and its gelatinisation is the most important factor for achieving the desired pellet quality. Pellet feed is a form of feed that most breeders attach importance to and uses, which has the advantages of transportation and carrying convenience, long preservation time, high nutritional value, good palsy, reducing the incidence of illness in poultry and livestock, and helping animal digest well.
As animal increase and grow, so the amount of feed required will also increase. Generally speaking, feed processing plants have a special feed pellet production line for the production of powder or pellet feed, sales will also increase labor costs, feed raw material spending, site fees and so on. For farmers, a simple feed making unit can not only help farms make feed pellets at home and sell themselves, but also add extra revenue.
As a reliable and experienced manufacturer of feed pellet making machine , Sunwit can offer both single feed pellet machine and customized complete feed production line. For more information about the equipment and detailed price, please feel free to inquire from us! Get Price Now!
