Technical Features
RICHI animal feed pellet making machine for sale is designed and manufactured using industry-leading technologies and equipment. It features stable performance, high output, low energy consumption, long service life, and a wide application range.
The core components of our feed pellet machine include: wear-resistant alloy steel ring die, high-precision gear transmission system, Siemens high-efficiency motor, configurable 1-3 layer intelligent conditioner, alloy press roller assembly, and variable frequency feeding device. These components work synergistically to ensure exceptional performance in production capacity, energy consumption control, and finished product quality.


01
Siemens Motor
Powered by a premium Siemens motor with a speed of up to 1,400 rpm, it ensures robust high-output performance and stable operation. Its energy-efficient design significantly reduces power consumption, effectively saving electricity while maintaining consistent performance.

02
Roller Assembly
Both the press roller shell and the press roller core are made of high-quality alloy materials. After heat treatment, they exhibit strong wear resistance.
Their unique structural design ensures a uniform and stable extrusion effect between the press roller and the ring die, thereby producing high-quality pellet feed.

03
Larger Conditioner
The conditioner has been reinforced and elongated to enhance feed gelatinization. Configurable with 1 to 3 layers to meet different feed production requirements, it offers wider applicability.
The paddles are forged from 304 stainless steel, delivering exceptional wear resistance and hardness.

04
Stainless Steel Ring Die
Made of high-quality alloy steel, it offers exceptional wear resistance and a service life exceeding 10,000 hours. It comes equipped with interchangeable dies featuring various aperture sizes to accommodate different raw materials and achieve desired pellet hardness and dimensions.

05
Variable Frequency Feeder
The feeder is controlled by a variable-frequency speed-regulating motor. It can flexibly adjust the feeding speed according to different feed production requirements to achieve precise and uniform feeding. At the same time, it can effectively prevent raw material blockage and improve operation efficiency.

06
Safety Device
When the equipment is overloaded or an abnormal condition occurs, the safety pin will break and the machine will immediately cut off power, triggering an automatic shutdown to protect key components from severe damage and prevent potential operational hazards.

Gear Transmission
Adopts high-precision gear transmission technology, delivering 15-20% higher output compared to belt-driven models. The gears undergo aerospace-grade grinding processing, ensuring superior feed processing precision, stable transmission operation, and significantly reduced noise levels.
With exceptional wear resistance, the system offers a service life of up to 15 years.

Cutting Device
Equipped with a high-efficiency cutter system to precisely control pellet length by adjusting the distance between the cutter and ring die. Crafted from wear-resistant alloy with special surface treatment, the cutter ensures outstanding durability and easy maintenance.
Featuring a modular design for quick disassembly and assembly, it guarantees uniform pellet shape while significantly reducing maintenance time and cost.

Temperature Gauge
A temperature gauge is installed at the outlet of the conditioner to monitor whether the material conditioning meets the standard. If the produced feed fails to reach the specified value, it indicates insufficient mixing of steam and raw materials.
Adjust the steam valve to introduce more saturated steam, ensuring the feed entering the ring die for pelleting is in an ideal state.
How the Animal Feed Pellet Making Machine Works
As the core equipment for producing pellet feed, the animal feed pellet making machine plays a crucial role in the pelleting process. Through the coordinated operation of each procedure, the pretreated raw materials are converted into pellet feed with uniform specifications.
Below are the working process of feed pellet making machine.
First , the crushed and mixed raw materials—often a blend of grains, protein sources, and additives—are fed into a variable-frequency feeder. This feeder, controlled by a frequency conversion motor, allows for precise adjustment of the feeding speed, ensuring a steady and consistent flow of materials into the next stage.
Next, in the conditioner, raw materials are fully mixed with steam to increase their moisture content. This process simultaneously achieves sterilization, gelatinization, and ripening of the raw materials, ensuring the safety and hygiene of the feed, enhancing its digestibility, and thereby making it more nutritious for animals. The conditioner’s design, often featuring specialized paddle structures, ensures optimal mixing and heat distribution, with some advanced models even allowing for multi-layer conditioning to extend treatment time.
Once conditioned, the materials are transported via a chute into the pelleting chamber, where the heart of the process takes place. Here, a ring die and press rollers work in tandem to exert strong extrusion pressure on the materials. The ring die, made of high-quality alloy steel and featuring precisely drilled holes, rotates while the press rollers force the material through these holes, forming cylindrical pellets. A cutting blade positioned near the die adjusts to slice the extruded feed into the desired length, ensuring uniformity in the final product.

The temperature of the feed pellets coming out of the feed pellet making machine is approximately 80°C, which requires cooling treatment. If smaller feed pellets are needed, a crusher can be used for re-crushing, and finally, a packaging machine is used for packaging.
