shrimp feed production process
— Richi Machinery —
RICHI has always been at the forefront of feed pelletizing and extrusion technology, and attaches great importance to the innovation of shrimp feed pellet production technology.
There are two main processes for producing shrimp feed pellet: using shrimp feed making machine to produce shrimp feed pellets and using an shrimp feed extruder to produce extruded shrimp feed.
Among them, the method of using pelleting process to produce shrimp feed pellet is a more common shrimp feed production process, but with the demand for shrimp feed farming and the continuous improvement of shrimp feed pellet technology, many places have begun to use extruders to produce shrimp feed.
As well-known feed making machine manufacturer, no matter which process customers choose to use to produce shrimp feed, RICHI can provide the best solution and a full set of shrimp feed making machine.
Shrimp feed pelleting process: Raw material receiving and cleaning – coarse crushing – first mixing – second crushing – second mixing – pelletizer – post – ripening – spraying – screening – packaging
Shrimp feed extrusion process: Raw material receiving and cleaning – coarse crushing – first mixing – second crushing – second mixing – extrusion – post – ripening – spraying – screening – packaging
Receiving and storing raw materials
The starting stage of the entire feed pellet line is the receipt and storage of raw materials. With more than 20 years of professional experience in storage equipment design and manufacturing, RICHI can build a reasonable raw material storage solution for you.
The first crushing of raw materials, also called coarse crushing, is mainly aimed at crushing materials that account for a relatively large proportion in the feed formula and improving the efficiency of ultrafine crushing in subsequent processes.
The main equipment used is hammer mill. After the crushing is completed, the materials are batched through the batching scale and then enter the feed mixer for uniform mixing.
Second crushing
Shrimp and crab have relatively high requirements on the fineness of raw materials, generally between 80-120 mesh, so an ultra-fine grinder is needed for secondary crushing.
Secondary crushing can enhance the digestibility of shrimp, facilitate subsequent pelleting, and increase feed yield.
Second mixing
The second mixing section is equipped with a small feed port, which can add necessary additives such as trace elements, vitamins, minerals and amino acids required for the production of shrimp feed pellet according to the feed formula to improve the nutritional value of the feed.
Pelleting (needed for pelleting process)
The main equipment used in this section is our SZLH series shrimp feed pelletizer, which is equipped with a three-layer modulator and can be equipped with a jacket, differential modulator and quality control device according to needs, which can effectively ensure the maturation requirements during pelleting.
Extrusion (needed for expansion process)
The main equipment used in this section is the shrimp feed extruder, and single-screw extruders and twin-screw extruders can be used according to needs. RICHI has always been at the forefront of feed machinery technology, providing the most advanced extrusion technology equipment for the production of shrimp feed.
Cooling Section
The temperature of the feed pellet after pelleting or extrusion is relatively high and the pellets are relatively soft. In order to increase the hardness of the feed pellets, a cooler can be used for cooling.
The pellet cooler adopts the counter-current cooling principle. The cold and hot pellets exchange heat in the cooling chamber and then are blown out through the suction system to achieve the cooling purpose.
Packaging Section
Using a semi-automatic packaging machine or a fully automatic packaging machine, the feed can be packaged into bags of 10-50 kg, which is easy to store, transport and sell. For some large feed pellet mill or farms, ton bag scales can also be used.
shrimp feed pellet line
This is the standard shrimp feed production process. Each section is modular in design. Not every customer’s shrimp feed pellet lineneeds to use all of the above sections. Sections can be added or reduced according to specific needs; and the equipment equipped in each section will also be adjusted according to raw materials, capacity and other requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a shrimp feed pellet machine and a regular animal feed pellet machine?
First, in order to meet the requirements of maturation, the shrimp feed pelletizer needs to be equipped with at least three layers of modulators, and the three layers of modulators can be jacketed according to needs (to keep warm and prevent heat loss); or one or two layers of modulators can be replaced with differential modulators (to extend the maturation time); or one layer of modulators can be replaced with a quality preserver (which has a larger diameter and can extend the maturation time);
Secondly, shrimp feed pelletizing machines generally use 6P motors, while ordinary feed pelletizing machines generally use 4P motors, because shrimp feed pellet is the most difficult to pelletize among all feeds;
In addition, the cutter of the shrimp feed pelletizer is a very thin blade, which is close to the inner side of the ring die and can directly cut off the pellets, while the cutter of the ordinary pelletizer is a blade head, and the pellets hit the blade head and are broken.
Is it necessary to use feed extruder to produce shrimp feed pellet?
Of course it is necessary. In Asia, more than 90% of shrimp feed production still uses traditional compression pelleting technology. However, in the past decade, as extruded shrimp feed and extruded fish feed produced by European manufacturers entered the international market, people began to become interested in the development and use of shrimp feed extrusion technology. Some Asian manufacturers have begun to try to use feed extruders to produce extruded shrimp feed, and the response has been good.
Therefore, shrimp feed manufacturers or investors in the feed field can choose to use pelleting technology or extrusion technology to produce shrimp feed according to local market demand and their own financial budget.
What are the advantages of extruded feed produced by shrimp feed extruder?
• The degree of starch gelatinization is relatively high, reaching 95%-100%
• Produces 100% sinking feed with a wide variety of raw materials
• Feeding extruded feed improves shrimp survival and weight gain
• Extruded feed can effectively eliminate Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, etc. during the processing process, reducing the disease rate of shrimp
• Can sink quickly and has high water stability
Can the shrimp feed production line only produce a single type of shrimp feed pellet?
No. The shrimp feed production line can be used exclusively to produce shrimp feed, but from the above customization plan, we can see that if there are production needs for fish feed, poultry feed pellet, livestock feed pellet, etc. When designing your feed production solution, we take all your feed production needs into consideration and customize a compound feed production line that can produce a variety of feed types.
Such as 1 t/h fish and shrimp feed production line, 5 t/h poultry and shrimp feed pellet line, 3-4 t/h shrimp and poultry, livestock feed pellet line and so on.
