FEEDSTUFFS AND INGREDIENTS IN ANIMAL FEEDS

With this raw materials and feed pellet mill , you can build your own feed pellet factory.

Cereals and grains

Maize, sorghum and bajra (a type of millet) are commonly used in animal feeds. Wheat and rice are mainly retained for human consumption.

Cakes and meals

Commonly used commodities of this kind are soybean, groundnut, rapeseed, sesame and sunflower meals in poultry feed. In cattle feed, in addition to these meals, others such as cottonseed and copra are used as premium ingredients.

Feeds of animal origin

Meat-meal, fishmeal, bone-meal and dicalcium phosphate of bone origin are the common raw materials available for animal feeding. It is interesting to note that, with the exception of some bone-based dicalcium phosphate, This was not out of fear of any zoonotic problems but the result of deep-rooted beliefs that the cow is sacred and must therefore be vegetarian. Now even the use of bone-based dicalcium phosphate has been banned and mineral-based dicalcium phosphate is used instead.

  Fishmeal and meat-meal were popularly used in poultry feed, but the increased production, improved availability and better awareness of soybean meal has led to its replacing fishmeal and meat-meal in most poultry rations. It should be mentioned that farmers have faced production problems owing to the bacterial contamination of fishmeal and meat-meal. The quality of fishmeal is also very poor.

Popular by-products

Some by-products are very nutritious and palatable to cattle, and these products form the bulk of cattle feed. They include wheat bran, rice bran and oil-extracted rice bran, tapioca, guar meal, safflower meal, maize gluten and molasses. 

Minerals and vitamins

Cattle feed is necessarily enriched with vitamins A and D3, and trace minerals such as iron, zinc, manganese, copper, cobalt and iodine. Calcium and phosphorus are also included. Poultry feed is enriched with all of these and all of the B complex vitamins.

Feed additives and supplements

Feed additives and supplements have played a very important role in enhancing the performance of dairy animals and, even more so, poultry. Today they are necessary in any feed formulation and essential for the formulation of a balanced diet. The additives and supplements used are antibiotic growth promoters (their usage is not banned in India), prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, mould inhibitors, toxin binders, anti-coccidial supplements, acidifiers, amino acids, by-pass fat, by-pass protein, non-antibiotic growth promoters, milk boosters, antioxidants, feed flavours and herbal preparations of Indian origin. A number of these products are imported from developed countries.

MAJOR FACTORS AFFECTING FEED PRODUCTION RATE

When we build a feed pellet production line,we need to know the major factors affecting the feed production rate.
The important process is steam conditioning.
The level of steam conditioning possible depends on the followings:
1.Formula moisture content
2.Formula fat/oil content
3.Steam quality
4. Die resistance and condition
5.Roll surface and condition
As a rule, the higher the level of conditioning, the higher the throughput and pellet quality.
Steam has the ability to carry and transfer both heat and moisture efficiently through the process of “CONDENSATION”.

The conditioner of the ring die feed pellet mill is the main part where the steam conditioning is taking place.
HKJ250 and SZLH ring die feed pellet mill are produced by Shandong Double Crane Machinery Manufacture Co.,Ltd.

The conditioner can be customized as buyer's demand.

Benefit of cattle feed pellets

Cattle feed pellet is a pellet form feed made by feed pellet machine through great pressure. It is a kind of feed that is not only for oxen, cows, cattle but also for sheep, and goat reared for their milk and meat. 

It contains protein, minerals and other nutrients which are useful for beef and milk production and survival of the animals.

Cattle feed pellets can be prepared from oil cakes, agro-residues such as peanut seedling, grass, corn straw, wheat straw, grain, wheat bran etc., flour mill by-products, cereals, sorghum,molasses, and so on.

Usually the coarse fibre can be 20-40%, the cereals can be 60%-80% or 100%.

There are many benefits of manufacturing cattle feed pellets

1. From a feed manufacturer’s perspective, the benefits of making feed pellets include decreased segregation of mixed feedstuffs, increased bulk density, reduced dustiness and improved handling characteristics.

2. For farmers making own cattle feed, will greatly save cost compared buying feed pellets from other manufacturers.

So both feed manufacture and cattle farmers really need bulid a complete cattle feed pellet production line. In Shandong double crane machinery manufacture Co.,ltd. you can find professional people to help you solve the problem.

How to make cattle feed pellets and what machines do we need?

 Major operations

The major operations involved in the production of cattle feed pellets are:

 raw materials preparation, primary crushing, molasses mixing, fine crushing, pellet making and packaging(optional)

1. Raw and auxiliary materials are first charged into silos where they are ready for further processing. They are then processed by primary crusher. Crushed 

materials are further separated by means of a sieve, and then stored in the assorting tanks according to the kind of raw materials.
2.The raw materials are then mixed by means of a feed mixer. In this process, fatty ingredients are added to the materials in order to raise the nutritional 

value of the feed. The feed obtained from the mixer is blended with molasses.
3. Assorted animal feed that is crushed into fine particles is further formed

 into pellets by a cattle feed pellet mill.

Machines for making cattle feed pellets
Machinery required in the cattle feed pellet production line are as following.
1.Tank or raw and auxiliary materials storage
2. Feed hammer mill for grinding the raw materials to feed powder.
3. Feed mixer( feed pellet mixing machine) used to mixing powdered materials to improve the uniformity of the ingredients.
4. Feed pellet mill(feed pellet machine) is the main machine for making the

 cattle feed pellets. For cattle feed mill, we supply flat die feed pellet mill

 designed for home use and ring die feed pellet mill designed for cattle feed

 factory. 

If you plan to buy a cattle feed pellet mill, you should make sure your capacity requirement

5. Feed pellet cooler is used to cool the hot and moisture feed pellets(if your production capacity per day is not so much, you will not need this pellet cooler, just dry the pellets in the sun is OK.)
6. Feed pellets screening and grading machine is used to remove the fines and grade the pellets, which is the preparation for packaging.
7. Feed pellet weighing and packaging machine is used to weigh and pack the pellets in the uniformity(If making cattle feed pellets for your own farm, you

 can choose to store the pellets in a dry container instead of buying a packing machine, while for an automatic feed pellet plant, the weight and packing

machine is necessary.)
8. Other auxiliary machines( conveyor, lifter, etc. Usually used in an automatic cattle feed pellet line).

Ring die pellet mill or flat die pellet mill?

Feed pellet mill is one of the core machines in feed pellet production line.
But usually we need to choose which kind to buy.
Flat die mills use a flat die with slots. 
The powder is introduced to the top of the die and as the die rotates a roller presses the powder through the holes in the die. A cutter on the other side of the die cuts the exposed pellet free from the die.The capacity of flat die feed pellet mill can be 500kg-800kg/h.it is suitable for the poultry farm to produce feed  for their animals.

In the ring die pellet mill there are radial slot throughout the die. Powder is fed into the inside of the die and spreaders evenly distribute the powder. Two rollers then compress the powder through the die holes. Two cutters are used to cut the pellets free from the outside of the die.
The capacity of ring die feed pellet mill can be 1t/h-2t/h . 
It is suitable for small  ,medium and large feed factory. The single of the ring die pellet machine is more than 4410 usd.

You can choose according to your own fund and needs.
