Why extruded feed needs to be dried
Normally, the moisture content of the finished feed pellets after extrusion is relatively high. Taking floating fish feed as an example, the moisture content of the feed pellets coming out of the fish feed extruder is usually around 20%. In order to prevent the extruded aquatic feed from deteriorating during storage, its safe storage moisture content is generally controlled below 13%, so it is necessary to dry it to remove excess moisture in the extruded feed.
Therefore, it is necessary to set up a special drying process section in the feed production process and equip it with professional drying equipment to achieve the purpose of extruded feed drying.

How does the extrusion feed belt dryer work?
Belt dryer is a commonly used continuous drying mahcine, which consists of a material conveying mechanism and one or more separate drying chambers. Each drying chamber is composed of a box, a heating system, a hot air circulation system, and an exhaust system.
When the extruded feed belt dryer is working, the feed coming out of the feed extruder is transported to the adjustable speed mesh belt through the material conveying mechanism. The hot air flows through the mesh belt and the air space of the extruded feed from top to bottom. In this process, the dry gas takes away the moisture of the material, thereby achieving the purpose of drying.
Currently common dryers include single-layer, multi-layer extrusion feed belt dryers and single-stage, multi-stage extrusion feed belt dryers. Users can choose according to their actual needs.

How to process high quality poultry pellets?
RICHI belt dryer has been widely used in the drying process of feed RICHI belt dryer has a simple structure and is commonly used for drying grains, feeds, and momi cakes. It is especially widely used in the drying process of feeds and has been recognized by many feed mill. The main reasons are as follows:
1. During the drying process, the extruded feed moves together with the conveyor belt, and the relative positions of the extruded feeds are relatively fixed, so the drying time of each extruded feed is basically the same, and the drying uniformity is high;
2. The extruded feed is in a semi-suspended state on the entire screen surface of the belt dryer, which can not only ensure the drying effect of the material, but also minimize the breakage of the extruded feed pellet;
3. The moisture content and color of the feed coming out of the extruder are uniform. After being dried by the belt dryer, the moisture and color uniformity of each extruded feed pellet can still remain basically consistent;

2. What are the factors that affect the drying effect of the belt dryer?
Drying is a complex process, which is affected by many factors, such as drying time, hot air temperature, hot air volume, etc., which will affect the final drying effect. The quality of drying is mainly judged from two factors: the moisture content of the dried product and the uniformity of the moisture content of the dried product.
For the drying of extruded feed, the composition and physical properties of the material also have a great influence on the final drying effect:
- If the feed formula contains a high proportion of oil, it is not conducive to drying;
- When feed particles are dense, it is not conducive to the diffusion of water inside the particles along the capillaries to the surface of the pellet;
- Larger pellet size requires longer drying time;
- All feed pellet sizes should not vary too much, otherwise it will be difficult to obtain a good drying unevenness index;
- Generally speaking, sinking feed is more difficult to dry than floating feed.
A high-quality belt dryer is the result of the comprehensive effect of all components in the drying system, including the dryer, auxiliary mechanical devices, thermal energy system, air duct system, electrical control system, etc. Therefore, when choosing a belt dryer manufacturer, you need to find one with rich experience and strong production capacity.
3. What are the precautions when using the belt dryer?
RICHI belt dryer is a modern intelligent device with simple operation, but there are still some precautions during use. Only by using the belt dryer correctly can a more ideal drying effect be achieved.
- Pay attention to the impact of high temperature on the nutritional value of extruded feed. Drying requires heat. Within the allowable limit, the higher the temperature, the more conducive to improving the efficiency of the dryer. However, under high temperature conditions, the nutritional value of the feed will be affected, such as non-enzymatic browning. Therefore, for extruded feed pellets generated by special feed formulas, it is possible to consider keeping the feed in a high temperature (100℃～200℃) environment for several minutes during drying to quickly heat the pellets. After that, the hot air temperature should be lowered to complete the remaining drying operations.
- Avoid rapid water loss from the surface of the particles in the early stages of drying, which would form a “water seal” and damage the capillaries connecting the surface and interior of the particles, thus preventing the moisture in the core of the particles from eventually diffusing outwards.
- The drying process of any material takes a certain amount of time. During a drying process, the operating parameters should not be changed frequently, and a certain amount of reaction time should be given to the dryer. Only in this way can the optimal operating parameters for a certain material be obtained.
