The cooling of the feed pellets is an indispensable process in the feed pellet machine pelletization. The counter flow pellet cooler can cool the pellets from the granulator at a temperature of 70 °C to 90 °C to a temperature slightly above room temperature of 3 °C to 5 °C, and then it can reduce to safe moisture (≤ 12.5%), which is convenient for pellets transportation and storage.

Our company Fusmar manufactured counter flow coolers with different models and different production capacities. It can use in feed mills of all sizes.

Counter Flow Pellet Cooler Performance Characteristics

Our company Fusmar manufactured counter flow cooler is a new type of cooler popular in the world. It uses the principle of counter current cooling to cool the high temperature and high humidity pellets. That is, the ambient cold air passes vertically through the layer, first with the cold material. In contact with each other, the hot air that gradually becomes hot is in contact with the hot material, and then the direction of the wind flow is opposite to the direction of the flow.

So that the pellets gradually cooled in the forward direction, and the coolers can prevent from directly contacted with the cold air and the high-temperature pellets. Thereby quenching the particles, the surface of the particle cracked. Since the cold air enters the cooler from the bottom in all directions, the air inlet area is large and the cold air utilization rate is high. Therefore, the cooling effect is remarkable, and the machine has low energy consumption and easy operation. So the counter flow cooler is superior to the previous upgraded products of vertical and horizontal coolers.

Main Structure

The counter flow pellet cooler mainly composed of a rotating closed air feeder, an air outlet top cover, a rhombic bulk material, a cooling box body, an upper and lower level positioner, a deceleration brake motor, an eccentric transmission spool-type discharge mechanism, a fixed frame adjustment device, the collecting hopper, the frame, the suction system, and so on.

How To Work Of The Counter Flow Pellet Cooler

The high-temperature and high-humidity pellets from the feed pellet machine uniformly stacked in the cooling box through the rotary closed-air feeder. And then the cold air discharged from the bottom of the sliding valve type discharging mechanism below the cooling box. The upper part of the collecting hopper enters the cooler in all directions, and passes through the material layer to exchange heat with the moist heat particles, and then sucks out through the suction system. So that the pellets cooled. The cooling time controlled through the position of the upper and lower levelers. When the granular material layer reaches the upper level, the motor starts to discharge. And when the granular layer is lower than the lower level, the motor stops discharging.

After the motor stops, the relative position between the movable frame and the fixed frame in the spool type discharge mechanism is controlled by the travel switch through the brake motor. Which ensures that no material leaked after stopping the discharge. The spool type discharge mechanism installed at the bottom of the box body, and the movable frame reciprocated by the deceleration brake motor through the eccentric mechanism, and then the relative position between the movable frame and the fixed frame changed. So that the pellets are discharged from the tank and finally discharged out of the machine by the collecting hopper.

Animal feed pellet ingredients are various, in the last blog post we introduced several ingredients. Next, we continue to introduce others feed pellets raw materials.

Zhengzhou Fusmar Machinery is a professional animal feed pellet machine manufacturer, this article will introduce animal feed pellets ingredients in details.

Sorghum As Raw Material

Sorghum contains about 70% carbohydrates and 3% to 4% fat, which is an energy feed according to the international feed classification principle. The effective energy value in the cereal class is second only to corn. However, sorghum, like other cereals, has a low protein content, generally, 7%-9% crude protein, and all essential amino acids cannot meet the nutritional needs of livestock. In particular, the content of lysine, sulfur-containing amino acid, and tryptophan in the limiting amino acids are less than half of that of pigs and chickens. The content of minerals and trace elements, except for iron, all minerals can not meet the nutritional needs of pigs and chickens. About half of the total phosphorus content is phytic acid phosphorus, and also contains about 0.2% to 0.5%. Tannins, both of which are anti-nutritional factors, the former hinders the absorption and utilization of minerals and trace elements, while the latter affects the utilization of protein amino acids and energy. If anything is possible, using an animal feed mill mixes other essencial elements to make animal feed pellets by yourself.

Using A Animal Feed Pellet Machine To Make Corn By-products

Corn gluten feed is a corn deep processing by-product consisting of corn wet-pretreated leachate, oiled corn germ cake or corn mash and corn seed coat after starch.

Corn germ meal.-sol is a by-product of corn germ as raw material, which pressed or immersed to extract oil. The corn soaked, broken, and separated from the germ before the corn starch produced, and then the oil taken. Most products are energy feeds except for very few varieties that are protein feed.

Rapeseed Meal As Raw Materials

The rapeseed cake contains about 35% to 36% of crude protein, and the rapeseed meal contains about 37% to 39%. Some rapeseed cakes have a crude fiber content of more than 18% in dry matter and should belong to roughage according to the international feed classification principle. However, the general rapeseed cake has a crude fiber content of 12% to 13% and is a low-energy protein feed. The content of methionine and cystine in rapeseed cake is high, the content of lysine is not high, and the content of arginine is very low. When combined with peanut meal, it can make up for the low content of ruthenium methionine and high arginine content. So it becomes the preferred biscuit in the low-priced biscuits. Rapeseed cake is rich in iron, manganese, zinc, and selenium, but lacks copper. About 60% of its total phosphorus content is phytate phosphorus, which is not conducive to the absorption and utilization of minerals and trace elements.

Using A Animal Feed Pellet Machine To Make Peanut Meal

Generally, the crude protein in peanut meal is 43%-46%, the arginine content is high, and the lysine and methionine contents are low. At the time of use, attention should be paid to the ratio of lysine to arginine. The loss of lysine and histidine in high-temperature processing is serious. Peanut cakes generally have a crude ash content of 4% to 6%. The content of 6% or more is generally not a peanut’s own minerals. Most of them derived from exotic materials such as sand, stone, mud, and have no actual nutritional value. In addition to crude fat, the content of various nutrients in peanut meal has no substantial difference from peanut cake. In addition to crude fat, peanut meal is generally higher in nutrient content than peanut cake. The content of minerals and trace elements in peanut cake restricted by raw materials and soil geological conditions. Compared with other cakes, the content of calcium and phosphorus in peanut cake is lower, and 40% of total phosphorus is phytate phosphorus, which is difficult to absorb by monogastric animals. The content of trace elements in peanut cakes is relatively low except for iron and should add. Peanut meal is prone to mildew. Its water content is 9%, which is equivalent to 14% water content of other cakes and begins to mold. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to storage. Farmers should not store peanuts for summer.

Sunflower Seeds As Ingredients

Sunflower is the most widely distributed oil crop. The oil content of high-oil sunflower is 40%-50%. After leaching oil, sunflower seed meal produced. The high-oil sunflower shell is difficult to remove, and the shell weight accounts for 21%-31% of the sunflower seed weight. Therefore, sunflower seed meal contains more crude fiber, which reduces its nutrient level. Due to the presence or absence of shells, the content of crude protein varies greatly, generally varies from 25% to 38%, and the content of crude fiber also varies greatly. The kernel ratio of sunflower kernel meal is 24:76. The nutrient level of sunflower seed meal produced after shelling will greatly improve.

Sesame Cake As Ingredients

The sesame cake is fragrant, giving the impression that it is a good feed ingredient. Generally containing 38%-43% crude protein, low lysine, only 0.82%, and also contains tannic acid and oxalic acid, phytic acid, affecting the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. The amount can also cause diarrhea, generally, for non-ruminants feeding is not good. The sesame oil residue of the fragrant oil is only 40% after the water exuded from the ground, and the crude fat is high. After drying, the beef and rabbit feed can prepare. Pregnant sows can also feed.

In the process of feed processing, dry powder materials or a mixture of several powder feeds. But sometimes, we need a wet mix, which is to add the liquid to the powder mix well. As for the feed mixer machine, not all the machines are suitable for the mixing of the wet mixture. As we commonly used vertical mixing machine, horizontal screw belt mixer is a more practical and dry mix, then want to mix wet materials what kind of feed mixing machine? Our company Fusmar is a professional feed mixing machine manufacturer, this article will introduce this machine in detail.

Talk About Feed Mixer Machine

The common feed mixer machine that can mix wet materials in the market includes a single-shaft and double-shaft paddle-type feed mixer. The single shaft double-spiral feed mixer is not incapable of mixing wet materials, but the resistance required is greater when stirring the wet materials. So if you must use a single-shaft double-spiral feed mixer to stir the wet mix. Then the wringer inside needs to thicken in case the single shaft double-spiral feed mixer fails during mixing.

Paddle Type Feed Mixer Machine

Paddle type feed mixer divided into a single shaft and double shaft. Generally speaking, biaxial use is more frequent, of course, single-shaft mixing uniformity is higher, faster mixing time, but the price will be relatively higher. Double shaft paddle type feed mixer has a special channel for adding liquid, through which the liquid can enter the feed mixer for stirring. This kind of feed mixer generally belongs to both dry and wet types. Mixing uniformity and time is relatively ideal, a batch of material mixing time is only about 0.5-2 minutes. The double shaft paddle type feed mixer has a good cost performance and a large output, and is used in a large farm or feed mill where the uniformity of the mixer is relatively high.

The U-Type Horizontal Mixer

The materials put to the machine are powder material. Mixing puff, fish Feed, poultry feed, pellets snacks, and other types of food snacks, then mixing different types of powder uniformly.

All kinds of materials according to specified proportion go into the mixer after measurement, materials mixed by the push of ribbon spiral blade. The out screw belt will push the materials from one end to the other end, the inner screw makes the materials move in the opposite direction, the layer material is pushed to one side, then turning from outer to inside. The material in the process of convection mutual infiltration, displacements and blending on both sides in the process of rolling again, repeated mix many times, finally through the material control structure will discharging the mixing materials from the discharged door.

Feed mixing machine is an important machine in the material processing system. The effect of the material mixing will directly influence the appearance of the feed pellets.
