1. Overview
Targeting the unique needs of small-to-medium scale breeding operations, our Farm-Use Ring Die Feed Pellet Mill is developed based on in-depth research into advanced overseas feed pellet equipment. Unlike industrial-grade models designed for mass production, this machine focuses on balancing performance and affordability—specializing in producing feed pellets with high hardness and density, while catering to the flexible demands of farms for feed variety and cost control. It has become the go-to equipment for small livestock/poultry farms, aquaculture bases, and micro feed processing workshops.
2. Product Introduction
The Farm-Use Ring Die Feed Pellet Mill integrates the core advantages of ring die technology (stable pelleting, high-quality output) with farm-oriented upgrades—simplified structure, lower investment, and strong adaptability to raw materials.
It processes common agricultural materials (corn, wheat bran, soybean meal, straw powder, fish meal, etc.) into uniform pellets, supporting both low-moisture powder feed and high-moisture fresh feed processing. The pellets feature controlled temperature rise during production, preserving heat-sensitive micronutrients (vitamins, probiotics) while ensuring good palatability—boosting animal feed intake and nutrient absorption.
Whether for poultry (chickens, ducks), livestock (pigs, sheep), or aquatic species (fish, shrimp), this machine delivers tailored feed solutions for different growth stages, making it a versatile asset for integrated farms.
3. Core Features
3.1 Premium Pellet Quality for Breeding Needs
- Nutrient Preservation: The pelleting process maintains a moderate temperature rise, avoiding the loss of heat-sensitive micronutrients in raw materials—ensuring feed is nutritionally balanced.
- High Hardness & Density: Pellets have a compact texture, neat shape, and smooth surface, which improves storage stability (resistant to moisture and mildew) and reduces breakage during transportation.
- Aquaculture-Friendly: Fish feed pellets produced by the machine have strong water stability, remaining intact in water for a long time—minimizing nutrient leaching and water pollution, while increasing feed utilization rate.
3.2 Flexible Adjustment for Diverse Demands
- Customizable Pellet Size: By switching ring dies, pellet diameter can be adjusted from 1.5mm to 12mm (covers needs from fry/chick feed to adult livestock feed); pellet length is adjustable between 5mm and 20mm via a built-in cutter.
- Broad Raw Material Adaptability: Handles both dry powder feed (e.g., mixed grain powder) and high-moisture fresh feed (e.g., fermented forage, fresh fish meal)—no need for additional drying equipment, saving farm costs.
3.3 Farm-Oriented Economic Practicality
- Simple Structure & Easy Operation: Streamlined design reduces complex components; even farm staff without professional training can master feeding, die replacement, and basic maintenance in a short time.
- Low Maintenance & Investment Costs: Compared to industrial models, it has fewer wear parts and lower replacement costs; the overall price is more budget-friendly, with a quick return on investment (typically 6-12 months for small farms).
4. Application Scenarios
The machine is widely used in small-to-medium scale breeding and feed processing scenarios:
- Livestock/Poultry Farms: Produces stage-specific feed for pigs (1.5mm for piglets, 4-6mm for fattening pigs), chickens (2mm for chicks, 3-5mm for layers), and sheep (5-6mm roughage pellets).
- Aquaculture Bases: Makes floating/sinking pellets for fish (3-8mm) and shrimp (1.5-4mm) with strong water stability, suitable for ponds, cages, and recirculating aquaculture systems.
- Small Feed Workshops: Processes customized formula feed for local farms, supporting small-batch, multi-variety production.
- Individual Farmers: Enables on-site feed production, reducing reliance on commercial feed and cutting breeding costs by 15%-30%.
5. Farm-Use vs. Industrial-Use Ring Die Pellet Mill: Key Differences
To help you choose the right equipment, we compare the two types in core dimensions:
| Comparison Dimension | Farm-Use Ring Die Feed Pellet Mill | Industrial-Use Ring Die Feed Pellet Mill |
|---|---|---|
| Target Capacity | Small-to-medium (0.5-3T/h) | Large-scale (≥2T/h, up to 20T/h+) |
| Applicable Users | Small farms, aquaculture bases, micro workshops | Large feed factories, industrial breeding parks |
| Structure & Maintenance | Simple structure, easy maintenance, low cost | Complex structure, professional maintenance required |
| Investment Cost | Economical (suitable for limited budgets) | High (large initial investment) |
| Pellet Size Range | Wider (1.5-12mm) | Narrower (2-10mm) |
| Raw Material Adaptability | Handles low/high moisture feed | Mainly for low-moisture powder feed |
