ARTICLE 82 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE August 2024 oped in response to new feed formulations. This method involves passing the feed mixture through the pellet mill twice, enhancing pellet durability and uniformity, particularly for complex feed compositions. Pre-Compactor Innovation The pre-compactor innovation involves super conditioning the feed mixture by expanders, for example, before it enters the pellet mill. This process improves pellet durability, making it particularly effective for high-fiber or coarse feeds. INCREASED PELLET MILL DIE SURFACES Maintaining Pellet Quality at Increased Capacities and Reduced Pellet Diameters Advancements in die design have led to increased pellet mill die surfaces which help maintain pellet quality at higher production capacities and with reduced pellet diameters. This ensures efficient production without compromising pellet integrity. AUTOMATIC ROLLER ADJUST INNOVATION Pre-Compression in the Pellet Mill Die Automatic roller adjust systems optimize pre-compression in the pellet mill die, ensuring consistent pressure application. This results in uniform pellet quality and reduced wear on the equipment. ROLL SPEED MEASUREMENT INNOVATION Anti-Blocking System Innovations in roll speed measurement include anti-blocking systems that prevent feed mixture buildup while optimizing steam conditioning and pre-compression. This results in smoother operation and higher quality pellets. DIE SPECIFICATION AND PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION Pellet Flow Measuring Plate Innovation The pellet flow measuring plate innovation ensures even distribution of the feed mixture across the die surface. This technology enhances pellet uniformity and consistency, which is crucial for maintaining high-quality standards.
