1
Grinding System
The process of processing raw materials into the desired size. The finer the raw material, the more surface area is exposed to heat and moisture to achieve gelatinization in conditioning. Finely textured material can transfer its energy to the animal compared to ground material. This is a very energy intensive process in feed mill engineering.
2
batching system
Batching is the process of putting each material in proportional ratio called feed formulation, which is a very important process for every feed mill. Accurate material rationing will provide better quality and complete nutritional feed. This batch process can be computer controlled or can have a manual control room to reduce the cost of the mill.
3
Mixing System
Mixing as the name implies is a process of mixing micro ingredients together. Proper mixing can be defined by a unit called coefficient of variation. The smaller the coefficient of variation, the higher the quality of the mix. The mixing machine should have a design to mix liquids into it as it is necessary to add oil or molasses to the feed.
4
Granulation System
Granulation is the main step in almost any feed mill engineering. It is a process that converts any powder into a solid shape called pellets with ring die pellet machine. In this process, the powdered material is extruded through a well-designed die with the help of rollers, which converts it into granules.
5
Cooling System
Cooling is a process of removing heat. As we know, during conditioning, we generate heat and moisture through the extrusion process and heat through the tray process. But the feed pellets should have standard moisture and heat to reach its storage life and keep it free from bacteria.
6
Crumbling System
Crumbling is the process of breaking the cooled pellets into small particles to make them suitable for chicks or hens. When crumbling is not required, we bypass the feed directly onto the screen with the help of a bypass mechanism. A well-designed one should have the ability to break the pellets without becoming finer.
7
Screening System
Screening is required to remove fine particles and oversized particles. Screening machines are used to remove powder and oversized particles. Qualified animal pellets enter the packaging section, and the screened large feed pellets will be re-crumbled and powder will be re-granulated.
8
packaging section
The end of the process in each factory is bagging, also known as packaging. After screening, the finished product is filled into bags. It is a good choice for electronic bagging machines. We can also configure finished product warehouses for customers to realize the process of bulk truck loading finished feed.

FAQ of feed mill engineering
How to design a raw material warehouse for a feed mill engineering?
- Area determination: Determined based on comprehensive factors such as whether there are silos, bulk silos, seasonal raw material storage, storage cycle, and the difficulty of raw material procurement.
- Structural design: Light steel structure is generally used, with a span of 22~24 m, which is more economical, and a column spacing of about 7 m; the height of the raw material warehouse eaves is determined according to the size of the warehouse area. The larger the warehouse area, the larger the eaves height. It is generally designed to be 7.0~8.0 m, which is more practical.
- Roof design: Roof materials generally use galvanized colored tiles + insulation layer or sandwich colored panels. The ridge should be designed with ventilation skylights. It is recommended to avoid setting up internal gutters for roof drainage, especially in the north where snow cannot be removed and snow water will penetrate into the warehouse. If there is an internal gutter, the diameter of the drainage pipe must be enlarged. The drainage pipe should be arranged from the air, not from the ground, to ensure that rainwater does not enter the warehouse and avoid raw material loss.
- Wall design: Galvanized colored tiles are generally used as wall materials. Whether to design an insulation layer depends on the climate of the feed mill engineering area. It can also be designed as a brick wall structure. It is recommended not to design windows on the wall. A ventilation belt can be designed at the junction of the wall and the roof, and a bird-proof net can be added. Lighting tiles can be installed on the side facade of the skylight to meet the lighting requirements of the warehouse.
- Ground design: In order to facilitate the unloading of bagged raw materials into the warehouse and shorten the transportation distance of raw materials, the ground should be able to carry 80 t of vehicles. In order to ensure that the raw materials are stored and deteriorated due to moisture, the ground should be designed to be moisture-proof.
- Gate design: In order to facilitate the passage of raw material vehicles, the warehouse gate should be designed to be larger. Generally, the gate is 5.0 m high and 5.0 m wide. In order to take into account the strength and lightness of the gate at the same time, it is recommended to design the gate structure of the warehouse as a sliding door in the form of a hanging, and use lightweight materials.
How to plan a reasonable environment for feed mill engineering?
Reasonable factory planning is the first step of a good feed factory engineering project.
From the site selection of the feed mill engineering to the environmental protection and safety supervision design, the functional division of the factory area determined by the process must meet the production process requirements, architectural feng shui requirements, fire protection and environmental protection requirements, and urban planning requirements.
- For the waste gas emission problem of the feed factory, the dust odor discharged from the crushing pulse fan, the odor discharged from the cooling fan, and the odor of the drying tail gas emission must be centrally cooled, and then purified by activated carbon and UV photolysis waste gas purification to meet European and American emission standards.
- In terms of noise treatment, sound insulation and vibration isolation materials are used; silencers are installed on the inlet and outlet pipe sections of the ventilator to control the noise radiated from the inlet and outlet.
- The separation of rainwater from production and domestic sewage in the feed mill engineering, as well as the separation of production sewage and domestic sewage, should be planned and designed in advance, and separate sedimentation tanks should be set up to divert the production wastewater and the wastewater and rainwater generated by the office canteen to their respective sedimentation tanks, and then discharged separately after sedimentation.
“Details determine success or failure”, RICHI strives for perfection in engineering details, from wear-resistant measures for equipment and pipelines, noise treatment measures for feed mill engineerings, airflow, dust and odor treatment, precise measures for dust and explosion prevention, energy-saving fine buckle, quick disposal of tailings and miscellaneous materials and waste, equipment lifting, startup operation, human-machine safety, and humanized ergonomic design, so that the majority of companies using RICHI feed mill equipment and engineering can reap an environmentally friendly, clean, beautiful factory that creates wealth, and create a great future for harvest production lines!
We want to build a turnkey feed mill engineering. How do you control the progress of the project?
Rigorous engineering construction WBS node control, RICHI pays attention to the technical details of the feed mill engineering project, and strives to make every section, every equipment, and every component so fine that it can be measured, so as to maximize the avoidance of waste and improve production quality.
RICHI feed engineering control has a total of 255 nodes, which comprehensively control the progress, safety, and quality of project construction. The total construction period of on-site construction is accurately controlled.

What does the overall plan of a feed mill engineering include?
After completing a series of preliminary preparations such as investment feasibility analysis, land inspection and purchase, land red line demarcation, raw material packaging and transportation methods, product capacity positioning, investment plan, government design planning, etc., the overall plan will be carried out.
It is the basis for process design, equipment selection and architectural design. It needs to reasonably arrange and organically connect the relevant single building facilities.
A good design should reflect the production characteristics, production functions and planning goals of the feed mill engineering, and the focus of the planning is the reception and storage of raw materials and the packaging and distribution of finished products.
How to divide the production functional areas of the feed mill engineering?
- Production area: mainly raw material reception and cleaning, raw material storage, production workshop, finished product storage and distribution, boiler, power supply, machine repair, hardware, woven bags and drug room.
- Office area: mainly includes general manager, finance, raw materials, quality control and testing, production, sales, reception, meeting and door guard departments, as well as facilities such as weighing scales.
