extruded fish feed or pelletized fish feed?

RICHI offers you extrusion line and pellet mill line to produce high-quality fish feed. Depending on the types of fish feeds, sinking feeds can be made on both pelleting and extrusion systems. Pellet mills can only make fast sinking feeds.

For example, milkfish feeds are still common to be made on pelleting lines thanks to advancements in pre-conditioning and post-conditioning technology. However, extruder offers more products characteristics from fast sinking, slow sinking, and floating.

floating feed

extruded fish feed production process

The fish feed production line for processing extruded fish feed includes the following systems: Raw material intake system——Pre-grind systems——Storage bins——Formula batch dosing system——Pulverizer grinding——Second mixing system ——Extrusion cooking with pre-conditioning——Drying system——Coating system——Impurity and dust sieve——Bagging and sealing system. The process and equipment can be selected and adjusted according to actual needs.

sinking pellet

pelletized fish feed production process

For high-end fish sinking feed processing, the processing technology of extruded feed can be directly adopted. If the pelletizing process is desired, the extruder can be directly replaced with a ring die pelletizer (with multi-layer conditioner). According to customer needs, some systems can be reduced, such as the second mixing, the second crushing, etc.

500kg Small Scale Fish Feed Plant

This process flow chart comes from one of our Span 500kg/h fish feed plant project. The customer of this project has a dryland fish farm. Part of the products processed by this project are used in his own fish farm, and the other part will be sold.

This is a typical small fish feed processing process: feeding – crushing – mixing – extrusion (Single screw extruder) – drying – coating – cooling – packaging. In order to save budget, the customer did not configure the screening section.

1TPH fish feed line

This process flow chart comes from one of our Zimbabwe 1-1.2t/h fish feed & 5-7t/h poultry ruminant feed combined production line projects. The client of this project is an agricultural company, which invested in the construction of the feed factory project, and all processed products are used for sales.

The process flow design: feeding – crushing – PLC batching – small material addition – mixing – extrusion (Single screw extruder) – drying – coating – cooling – (pelleting – cooling) – screening – packaging.

3tph fish feed line

This process design comes from our Kyrgyzstan 3-ton floating fish feed processing project. This is also a composite production line, which can produce 5-6 t/h livestock and poultry feed while producing 3 t/h extruded fish feed. Although this is also a composite production line, it is completely different from the previous design.

The process flow is: feeding – first crushing – second crushing – cleaning – mixing – granulation/extrusion (twin screw extruder) – drying – coating – cooling – packaging.

5tph fish feed line

This process design comes from one of our 5-ton floating fish feed projects in Russia, and it is also the 18th fish feed line project we have undertaken in Russia. It is still a composite feed line, processing 5t/h extruded feed and 10 t/hlivestock and poultry feed.

This is a high-configuration design, the process is: feeding – first crushing – fully automatic batching – first mixing – (granulation – cooling – screening – packaging) – ultrafine crushing – batching – second mixing – extrusion – drying – screening – spraying – cooling – packaging

fish feed production line construction

The construction of fish feed production line covers the contents of site selection, layout design, equipment procurement and management.

  1. Site selection
  • Market proximity: The primary consideration for site selection is market proximity. It is necessary to ensure that the products produced can be delivered to the target market in a timely and convenient manner to reduce logistics costs and improve customer satisfaction.
  • Transportation convenience: The site selection should consider transportation convenience, including the convenience of roads and public transportation, as well as the distance to the logistics center and suppliers.
  • Land cost: Land cost is also one of the important factors in site selection. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the cost of land leasing or purchasing, and calculate it with the expected output and sales revenue. Mini or small fish feed production lines sometimes only require one plant building.
  • Plant construction and production line steel structure cost: Plant construction usually requires finding contractors in the area, while steel structure can be purchased from fish feed equipment manufacturers.
  1. Layout design
  • Process analysis: Before conducting layout design, a detailed process analysis of the fish feed production process is required, including the purchase of raw materials, various links in the production process, and the shipping process of finished products.
  • Process optimization: According to the results of process analysis, process optimization is carried out to optimize the equipment and process arrangement of each link on the production line to improve production efficiency and reduce resource waste.
  • Space planning: When designing the layout, it is necessary to fully consider the space utilization rate to ensure that each fish feed equipment can be fully utilized, and at the same time provide sufficient operating space and working channels for employees to operate and manage.
  1. Equipment procurement
  • Equipment selection: When selecting equipment, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as the scale of the production line, production process, quality requirements and cost, and compare and evaluate with multiple suppliers to select the most suitable equipment.
  • Equipment layout: The layout of the equipment should match the layout of the fish feed production line to ensure that the transportation and operation efficiency between the equipment is maximized, and it is easy to maintain and maintain.
  • Equipment debugging: After the equipment procurement and layout are completed, the equipment needs to be debugged and tested to ensure the normal operation and production efficiency of the equipment.
  1. Management
  • Personnel training: After the construction of the fish feed production line is completed, the production personnel need to be trained to familiarize them with the new operating procedures and equipment usage methods to improve work efficiency and product quality.
  • Production planning and control: formulate reasonable production plans, strengthen control and supervision of the production process, timely discover and solve problems in production, and ensure the stable operation of the production line.
  • Quality management: establish a complete quality management system, including quality control of raw materials to quality inspection of finished products, to improve product quality and customer satisfaction.
