How to produce fish feed? What is the complete process of fish feed production? What are the steps involved in producing fish feed? These are the questions that fish feed producers usually have when investing or starting the fish feed production business.

Therefore, we will customize fish feed production line solutions for you according to your specific needs. Due to the differences in the types of raw materials, the area and height of the fish feed plant, investment requirements, etc., each fish feed production line solution will be very different.

The conventional fish feed production process includes: receiving and cleaning raw materials – first crushing and first mixing – second crushing and second mixing – extrusion or granulation – drying – spraying – cooling – screening and packing

The fish feed production process is as follows:

The process of fish feed production

Receipt Of Raw Materials

The receipt of raw materials is the initial stage of fish feed production. According to production needs and the amount of raw materials used in the feed formula, the storage of raw materials can be completed using a silo receiving system.

First crushing and first mixing

The raw materials are crushed into small particles to reduce the particle size of the raw materials, which is convenient for subsequent extrusion, granulation, etc. The crushed raw materials are roughly mixed according to the feed formula.

Second crushing and second mixing

In order to meet the growth needs of fish, fish feed production usually involves a second crushing to improve the quality of fish feed pellets. The materials are then fully mixed according to the feed formula.

Extrusion or granulation

The mixed materials are extruded or pelletized to form high-end fish feed pellets. In this process, you can choose to use fish feed extruder machine or fish feed pelletizer.

drying

Drying is to reduce the moisture content in the feed pellets. The moisture content of the feed pellets after drying is about 13%, which can increase the storage time of the feed pellets.

Spraying

Oil, vitamins, spices and other materials are sprayed onto the surface and inside of feed particles through spraying equipment to improve the nutritional content and palatability of feed particles.

cooling

The temperature of the feed pellets after the above treatment is relatively high. In order to quickly cool them to room temperature or slightly below room temperature, cooling equipment is required to cool them down.

Screening

Screening is to improve the quality of fish feed pellets. Use screening equipment to screen out qualified feed pellets from the feed pellets, and unqualified ones need to be returned for reprocessing.

Packing

The qualified fish feed pellets screened out are packed into bagged feed pellets through weighing, bagging, sealing, palletizing and other processes. Bulk feed pellets can also be directly transported by truck.

The fish feed production line we design and the fish feed making machine we provide produce feed pellets that can meet the growth and development needs of a variety of fish and aquatic organisms.

Extruded fish feed or pelletized fish feed? These are two common types of fish feed, which are made from two different production processes: floating fish feed and pelletized fish feed pellet.

The main difference between the processing technology of floating fish feed and sinking fish feed pellet lies in the different equipment used in the pelletizing or extrusion process.

The main equipment used in the floating fish feed processing technology is the fish feed extruder machine, which can be the twin-screw extruder machine or a single-screw extruder machine.

The main equipment used in the processing of sinking fish feed pellet is the fish feed pelletizer with a multi-layer modulator, but fish feed extruder machine can also be used to process sinking fish feed pellets, which is also popular in the fish feed production industry.

In addition, fish feed extruder machines can also be used to process slow sinking fish feed pellets to meet the specific feeding needs of some aquaculture farms.

Floating fish feed

Floating fish feed

The high-fat, high-water content fish feed pellets produced by the extrusion process can float on the water surface for a long time, which can meet the growth and development needs of surface-feeding fish such as trout, catfish, and eels.

Slow sinking fish feed

Slow sinking fish feed

The fish feed produced by the extrusion process can sink slowly in the water. After feeding, it will not sink to the bottom of the water quickly, so that the fish can have more time to eat, reducing feed waste and water pollution.

Sinking fish feed pellet

Sinking fish feed pellet

A kind of fish feed pellets produced by extrusion or granulation process that can quickly sink to the bottom of the water after feeding, mainly used to meet the growth and development needs of bottom-feeding fish.

We provide multiple design solutions for fish feed pellet mills with different outputs to meet the production needs of all fish feed manufacturers.

How much does it cost to build the fish feed factory? To know the price of the fish feed pellet mill, you must first figure out what investments are needed to build the fish feed factory.

The cost of building the fish feed pellet mill mainly includes raw material cost, fish feed making machine investment, labor cost, factory building cost, transportation cost, management cost, etc. Therefore, if you want to clearly understand the investment cost of a fish feed production plant, you need to consider these influencing factors comprehensively.

The following is the investment in fish feed making machine when building the fish feed pellet mill, which is the most important part of the fish feed factory.

As for the cost of raw materials, plant construction cost, etc., we need to calculate according to your needs, and then combine with the investment in fish feed pellet machine to calculate the comprehensive cost of building the fish feed mill.

Why invest in fish feed production?

Fish feed production has attracted more and more attention as a business plan. Many investors are interested in the development potential and profit space of fish feed production, especially in the context of the rapid development of global aquaculture.

1

Aquaculture industry growing rapidly

As wild catch resources decrease, aquaculture becomes the main way to supply fish. The global aquaculture industry grows by 5%-7% annually, and the rapid growth of aquaculture drives the demand for aquatic feed.

2

High-end aquatic feed demand is strong

Traditional fish feeds have serious homogeneity, low conversion rate, water pollution and other problems. Aquaculture farmers are looking for better aquatic feeds, and aquatic feeds with high protein and high fat content have become the first choice.

3

Improved efficiency of the breeding industry

High-end aquatic feed can increase the growth rate of fish and reduce feed waste, thereby reducing breeding costs, improving fish survival rate, increasing breeding income and improving breeding efficiency.

4

Complete industrial chain

At present, fish feed production has formed a complete industrial chain. Both the raw material supply and market awareness are relatively stable, so high-end aquatic feed can stand out in the market.

what equipment is suitable for making fish feed

There are many kinds of equipment for making fish feed. Different types of fish feed production require different equipment, and different outputs of fish feed production also require different equipment. Generally speaking, the production of fish feed mainly requires: raw material crushing equipment, mixing equipment, extrusion equipment, granulation equipment, drying equipment, spraying equipment, cooling equipment, packaging equipment, etc.

Through reasonable configuration, these equipments can efficiently produce high-quality fish feed to meet market demand.

How can we produce high-quality extruded feed?

In order to obtain high-quality extruded floating feed, every link in feed production is important, and there are several key points to pay attention to:

  • First of all, the raw materials should be ground finely. The finer the raw materials are ground, the easier it is to mix fully with steam in the modulator, the easier it is to extrude the raw materials in the extrusion chamber, and the easier it is to obtain puffed feed with a smooth surface and uniform color.
  • Secondly, a reasonable formula is the key factor in producing high-quality extruded feed, especially the starch content in the raw materials, because the starch content is the key factor that determines the buoyancy and sinking properties of extruded feed.
  • In addition, whether to choose spraying equipment and the choice of sprayer. Spraying can significantly increase the oil content of extruded feed particles. Different spraying equipment brings different effects. For example, the spraying effects brought by drum sprayer and vacuum sprayer are completely different.

The quality of extruded feed is closely related to each production link and the selected equipment. If you want to get high-quality extruded feed, you can contact us immediately for more detailed information.
