Feed Orders Shape the Equipment Decision
A cooperative handles several customers under one roof. Broiler growers need dependable delivery dates; pig farms need consistent feed between batches; smaller buyers need bags that carry the correct product and lot information. These requirements determine the equipment as much as the hourly rating.
The complete feed production line in Serbia uses a common receiving and mixing train, followed by pelleting, cooling and a choice of bulk loading or bagging. The customer can change the dispatch format without purchasing a second production line. That keeps daily scheduling manageable and concentrates maintenance around one principal process.
RICHI MACHINERY
A Site Prepared for Grain and Finished Feed
The installation basis uses existing agricultural premises and warehouse accommodation, with the processing area adapted for the new machinery. Structural checks cover equipment loads, service platforms and access for replacing the die and rollers.
Planning proceeds from the feed order list to the ingredient schedule, then to bin sizes, process elevations and electrical connections. This order helps the customer commit to a feed mill installation with a defined scope. Receiving pits, building alterations and utility connections are coordinated alongside the equipment supply so that each contractor understands the interfaces.

Consistent Feed Across Different Farm Customers
Uneven batches can create problems long before they reach the pellet mill. A bridging ingredient bin changes the weighing cycle; poorly distributed premix affects feed uniformity; warm bags create storage difficulties. The complete feed production line in Serbia addresses these points through controlled discharge, measured dosing and adequate cooling.
The feed pellet production line includes recipe management and batch records, giving the cooperative a traceable link between purchased ingredients and dispatched feed. Operators can check a recorded weight or alarm instead of relying on memory when a customer asks about a delivery.

Bulk Supply and Bagged Sales from One Production Train
| Product route | Annual production basis | Dispatch arrangement |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk poultry and pig feed | 30,000 tonnes | Dedicated finished bins and bulk truck loading |
| Bagged poultry and pig feed | 20,000 tonnes | Weighing, stitching, lot marking and pallet storage |
| Combined output | 50,000 tonnes | Shared processing equipment |
The complete feed production line in Serbia is sized around 4 mm commercial pellets. A crumbler provides smaller particles for suitable poultry products. Smaller die holes or more demanding recipes can reduce press throughput, so product trials define the operating rate for each feed rather than applying the largest rating to every formula.
RICHI MACHINERY
Serbian Cereals with Controlled Protein and Premix Addition
Maize and wheat fit the country’s cereal supply base. Soybean meal and qualified sunflower products provide protein options, while bran, vegetable oil, minerals and premix are selected by the customer’s nutritionist for each animal and growth stage.
| Ingredient group | Receiving condition | Processing decision |
|---|---|---|
| Whole maize and wheat | Clean, dry grain | Screen, magnet and grind |
| Soybean meal and sunflower meal | Qualified dry meal | Break lumps when needed; bypass unnecessary grinding |
| Bran and other cereal products | Assessed moisture and fibre | Dose through suitable bins |
| Oil | Qualified liquid ingredient | Meter into the mixer |
| Minerals and premix | Identified bags or containers | Separate weighing and controlled addition |
Incoming grain is checked for moisture, damage and mycotoxin risk. Finished feed specifications set the purchasing limits; a pellet mill cannot compensate for an unsuitable ingredient. This makes the complete feed production line in Serbia a useful tool for consistent feed production alongside a sound procurement programme.
RICHI MACHINERY
Output Based on Net Production Hours
The annual basis is 20 tonnes per hour multiplied by 10 net production hours per day and 250 production days: 50,000 tonnes. Two scheduled shifts provide room for cleaning, formula changes, checks and planned maintenance around those net hours.
Staffing allows six people per shift for process supervision, receiving, dispatch and material handling, plus four shared roles covering quality, maintenance and administration. The resulting team of 16 supports the complete feed production line in Serbia without treating automation as a substitute for inspection or trained operators.

One Pellet Mill with Matched Upstream Capacity
| Main duty | Equipment selection | Quantity | Design role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grain grinding | Hammer mill feed grinder, 160 kW main drive | 1 | Prepare the cereal portion at the required particle size |
| Batch mixing | Twin-shaft paddle mixer, 2-tonne batches | 1 | A 5-minute complete cycle provides 24 T/H theoretical batch capacity |
| Pellet forming | Animal feed pellet mill, SZLH678, 250 kW main drive | 1 | Serve the 20 T/H commercial pellet duty |
| Steam supply | Boiler rated at 2 tonnes of steam per hour | 1 | Conditioning and controlled steam reserve |
| Cooling and crumbling | Counterflow cooler and product crumbler | 1 set | Prepare cooled pellets or crumbles |
| Packing | Automatic 50 kg bagging and stitching line | 1 | At least 8 bags per minute when the full output is bagged |
Receiving and conveying are sized above the average production flow to absorb truck unloading and batch transfers. A 600 kW connected electrical basis covers the main motors and supporting equipment; it represents installed load, with actual demand determined by the operating sequence.

How the Complete Feed Production Line in Serbia Runs
The animal feed production line separates operations by material duty. Grain is prepared before formulation, liquids are metered during mixing and pellets are cooled before the dispatch decision.
Receiving and cleaning
Grain passes through a receiving screen and magnetic separation before storage or grinding. Bagged meals enter through a dust-extracted intake point. Lot identification stays with the material throughout the system.
Grinding to the selected feed specification
The hammer mill handles whole cereals. Qualified meals bypass it when their particle size already suits the formula, keeping the grinder available for the material that needs size reduction.
Weighing and batch mixing
Major ingredients are weighed against the selected recipe. Micro-ingredients are weighed separately and introduced through the controlled addition point. The feed mixer machine distributes the ingredients and metered oil within the complete batch cycle.
Conditioning with controlled steam
Dry steam raises mash temperature and moisture to the level established for the product. The compound feed mill uses accessible steam valves, traps and gauges so operators can correct supply conditions before feed reaches the press. Conditioning settings follow feed trials and the customer’s quality programme.
Pelleting and product finishing
The animal feed pellet press forms the conditioned mash through the selected ring die. The counterflow cooler brings pellet temperature close to ambient; the crumbler is used only for products that require it. A grading screen separates fines for controlled return to the same compatible product.
Dispatch with batch identity
Cooled feed enters bulk bins or the bagging line. Product labels, weights and loading records connect the finished order to its recipe and ingredient lots.
RICHI MACHINERY
A Compact Layout with Access for Maintenance
The complete feed production line in Serbia uses a low-rise process arrangement with service platforms around batching, mixing and conditioning. Gravity assists suitable transfers, while enclosed conveyors connect the stages that need mechanical transport.
A 6,500 m² site basis accommodates a 2,500 m² covered working allocation: 800 m² for processing, 1,050 m² for ingredient handling, 500 m² for finished goods and 150 m² for quality and service rooms. The remaining yard provides truck access, fire access and utility space. Warehouse reuse is part of this project scope.
RICHI MACHINERY
Storage That Supports the Dispatch Schedule
The storage programme combines cereal capacity at the agricultural premises with smaller protected areas for protein meals and premix. Reorder points follow daily feed demand and delivery reliability; the equipment does not assume that a small bin replaces seasonal grain storage.
Bulk loading and pallet collection use defined routes to prevent finished feed from crossing the receiving area. A compact animal feed manufacturing plant becomes easier to operate when the loader, delivery truck and maintenance team can reach their work areas without waiting for one another.
RICHI MACHINERY
Cleaner Transfers and Controlled Material Return
Receiving, grinding, batching and bagging have dust extraction at the points where material changes direction or falls into another vessel. Enclosed conveyors reduce routine spillage, and inspection doors let staff clean residues before changing products.
Only clean, identified fines from a compatible feed return to production. Sweepings, suspect ingredients and contaminated filter residues are handled separately. Equipment protection, dust containment and housekeeping are integrated into the feed mill design rather than left to operators to improvise.

Equipment Budget and Total Project Investment
| Investment item | Budget |
|---|---|
| Equipment cost | USD 470,000 |
| Total project investment | USD 715,000 |
The equipment budget covers receiving adaptations, grinding, batching, mixing, the pellet train, steam equipment, conveying, packing, dust extraction and electrical control. The project total also allows for freight, local installation, foundations, utility work, warehouse adaptation, commissioning support and contingency.
The budget basis uses the customer’s existing site and warehouse accommodation. Land purchase, replacement of the wider cooperative’s grain infrastructure and recoverable taxes sit outside this scope. This gives buyers a useful basis for comparing a complete feed production line in Serbia with projects that require extensive new buildings.
RICHI MACHINERY
Delivery Planned Around Access to the Serbian Site
Equipment packing follows the assembly sequence, with heavy items identified for lifting and smaller components grouped by process area. The installation plan confirms the unloading surface, crane access and workshop openings before dispatch.
A sea gateway with onward road transport can serve the site, subject to the booked route and cargo dimensions. Inland waterways are considered only when transshipment and local handling suit the consignment. The delivery programme uses the freight forwarder’s confirmed schedule rather than assuming an inland port is a direct ocean arrival point.
RICHI MACHINERY
Acceptance Focused on Saleable Feed
Capacity checks follow the chosen formula and pellet diameter. Mixing verification, weighing calibration, cooler performance and packaging accuracy are checked alongside sustained output. The complete feed production line in Serbia is assessed as a working system, including the stages after the press.
Operator training includes recipe selection, ingredient identification, alarm response and safe die servicing. Quality staff retain samples and test records, giving the cooperative a practical way to investigate a product query and maintain continuity between shifts.
RICHI MACHINERY
Local Grain Processing with a Clear Customer Base
Serbia’s maize and wheat production gives cereal-based feed manufacturing a relevant supply setting. The cooperative’s commercial advantage comes from combining that purchasing access with scheduled deliveries and identifiable feed products for its farm customers.
The complete feed production line in Serbia suits a buyer with dependable ingredient sourcing, established livestock demand and suitable premises. Capacity follows those commitments. A cooperative feed mill can then use bulk orders to anchor production while bagged sales serve smaller farms within the same operating system.

Questions to Settle Before Choosing a Feed Mill
Can poultry and pig feed use the same line?
Yes, when formulas, die choices and cleaning arrangements are compatible. The production plan groups suitable products into campaigns and specifies changeover checks. Medicated feeds require a separate assessment of legal requirements and carryover controls.
Is one large pellet mill enough?
For the specified 20 T/H commercial pellet duty, one suitable press is the selected arrangement. A second production train is justified by an independent duty, verified availability requirement or future expansion plan.
What information makes a quotation useful?
RICHI needs the feed types, pellet sizes, daily tonnage, representative formulations, receiving method and building drawings. Those details establish the grinding load, batching cycle and finishing capacity behind the complete feed production line in Serbia.
