Installation is advancing on a 13 t/h compound feed mill project in Morocco designed to serve more than one livestock sector from a single production site.
The customer plans to manufacture broiler and layer feeds together with sheep and cattle products. Corn, barley, wheat, bran, protein meals, alfalfa-derived ingredients, molasses, minerals and premixes will move through different formulas depending on the final feed.
This product diversity is making installation coordination as important as the individual machines themselves.
One Factory Will Need Several Production Routes
Poultry and ruminant feeds do not place identical demands on the process.
Broiler and layer formulas are generally more grain- and protein-meal-oriented, while sheep and cattle products can contain greater proportions of fibrous ingredients such as bran and alfalfa meal.
Molasses can also be used in selected ruminant formulations.
The future factory therefore needs to switch among different ingredient and finished-product combinations without excessive manual intervention.
Current Installation Connects the Common Production Core
The main feed mill equipment being positioned includes grinding, batching, mixing and pellet-production sections that will be shared by several feed categories.
Downstream routing will then separate products according to their required physical form.
Some feeds will leave as meal. Others will continue as pellets mainly within the 3–8 mm range.
This shared-core concept is one reason the installation sequence must follow the approved material-routing plan closely.
Formula Changeover Is Already Influencing Site Decisions
Production scheduling becomes important in a multi-species feed mill.
The customer will need to consider the order in which formulas are produced, particularly where different ingredient profiles or additives are involved.
RICHI Machinery has therefore kept cleaning access, bin allocation and material-retention points in view during installation.
These details will later affect how quickly the factory can move from one feed category to another.
Molasses Equipment Is Installed with the Ruminant Route in Mind
The liquid-addition section is being connected as a controlled subsystem.
Molasses storage, transfer and dosing cannot be handled in the same way as dry meal ingredients.
The installation team is checking pipe routes and access before surrounding electrical and structural work is finalized.
Mechanical Completion Will Open the Control-Testing Stage
After the remaining equipment and connections are fixed, the Moroccan project will enter electrical and automation work.
The commissioning program will not begin with all poultry, sheep and cattle formulas at once.
A representative product will first be used to establish the common process route. Additional formulas can then be introduced systematically.
The 13 t/h Morocco animal feed factory project is currently still a construction site, but the installation now underway is building the production flexibility that will later allow one factory to serve several different feed markets.
