How does the feed pellet machine work

The Feed pellet machine is an efficient, adjustable, and easy to operate feed processing equipment, with a relatively complex but orderly working principle. The following is a detailed introduction to the workflow of the feed pellet machine :

Main components and functions

• The feed pellet machine is mainly composed of the following components, each of which undertakes different functions:
• Feeding mechanism: responsible for adding raw materials into the machine from above, which can be in powder, granular or mixed form.
• Pressure wheel and pressure roller: There is a pair of interacting pressure rollers on the pressure wheel, which press the raw material into particles. The pressure of the roller can be adjusted through a lubrication system to ensure that the density and hardness of the particles meet the requirements.
• Mold: It is the part that forms the shape of particles and can be replaced as needed to produce particles of different shapes and sizes.
• Discharge mechanism: responsible for discharging the compressed particles from the machine.
• Electrical control system: used to control the entire working process, including starting, stopping, and adjusting the operating speed and pressure of the feed pellet machine.

workflow

• The workflow of a feed pellet machine can be divided into the following steps:
• Raw material addition: The raw materials that need to be granulated are added to the machine through the feeding mechanism.
• Raw material pressing: The raw material enters the pressing area of the roller and is gradually formed into particles by the squeezing effect of the roller. During this process, parameters such as pressure and speed of the pressure roller can be adjusted through an electrical control system to meet the needs of different raw materials and particle sizes.
• Particle forming: The raw material extruded by the pressure roller enters the mold, and the shape of the mold determines the shape and size of the particles. Under the action of the mold, the raw materials are further compacted and formed.
• Particle discharge: The formed particles are discharged from the machine through a discharge mechanism and can undergo subsequent cooling, screening, and packaging treatments.

Detailed description of working principle

The working principle of the feed pellet machine is based on spiral extrusion force and mold forming technology. After the raw materials enter the machine, they are subjected to the squeezing effect of the pressure roller, and the intermolecular forces between the raw material molecules increase, gradually forming particles. Meanwhile, the shape and size of the mold determine the shape and size of the particles. In this process, the electrical control system can achieve precise control of particle size, shape, and density by adjusting parameters such as pressure and speed of the pressure roller, as well as changing the mold.

precautions

• When using a feed pellet machine, it is necessary to ensure that the humidity and particle size of the raw materials meet the requirements to avoid affecting the quality of the pellets and the lifespan of the machine.
• Regularly maintain and upkeep the machine, including cleaning the molds, checking the wear of the pressure rollers and rollers, etc., to ensure the normal operation of the machine and extend its service life.
• Select appropriate feed pellet machine models and configurations based on production needs to improve production efficiency and product quality.
