How the Livestock Feed Pellet Machine Works
The working principle of a livestock feed pellet machine can be summarized as conditioning, extrusion, forming, and cutting.
First, the powdered feed materials enter the conditioner, where they are mixed with steam to soften the material and improve plasticity.
The conditioned feed is then fed into the pelletizing chamber and compressed by rollers through the die holes to form continuous feed strands.
Next, the feed strands are cut into pellets of the required length by the cutter device.
Finally, the pellets are cooled and screened, resulting in uniform, easy-to-store livestock feed pellets with improved feed utilization and reduced waste.
Through this working principle, the livestock feed pellet machine effectively improves feed utilization, reduces waste, and meets the requirements of large-scale livestock farming for feed quality and production efficiency.
