18 t/h shrimp and fish feed factory process flow

Here will just show you the production process of puffed floating fish feed plant and shrimp feed production line

The biological feed of this project is made of soybean meal, corn DDGS, flour, chicken powder, etc. as the main raw materials, combined with trace ingredients such as vitamins, amino acids, and minerals, to make granular feed.

The project adopts the process of crushing first and then batching. The raw and auxiliary materials that need to be crushed (soybean meal, corn DDGS, rice bran) are respectively crushed by a grinder, and then enter the batching bin, and mixed with other raw and auxiliary materials that do not need to be crushed (fish meal, flour, etc.) .

The feed product is produced after mixing and extruding granulation process. The production process of the extruded fish feed production line and the shrimp feed production line is basically the same, except that the feed of the extruded fish feed line needs to be extruded and sprayed with grease, but the ratio of raw and auxiliary materials is different.

Its main process is briefly described as follows:

(1) Raw material receiving, cleaning and crushing section

The main raw materials required for production are transported into the 18 t/h shrimp and fish feed factory  area by car, weighed and inspected by the truck scale, and then transported to the raw material workshop and raw material silo for storage through the receiving equipment.

After the auxiliary materials required for production are weighed and inspected by the truck scale, they are directly sent to the raw material workshop for storage.

Raw materials that need to be crushed enter the production workshop through the conveying equipment, and then enter the bin to be crushed after being cleaned to remove impurities and permanent magnet cylinders to remove ferrous impurities.

 After the raw materials in the crushing bin are crushed to the required particle size by the pulverizer, they are distributed to the raw material bin for storage through the conveying equipment.

The raw materials that do not need to be crushed enter the production workshop through the conveying equipment, and after the impurities are removed by the primary cleaning screen and the ferrous impurities are removed by the permanent magnet cylinder, they are sent to different raw material bins by the distributor for storage.

(2) Ingredients and mixing section

According to the requirements of the formula, various raw materials participating in the batching are sequentially entered into the mixer through the batching scale controlled by the computer.

The batching process uses two batching scales, one large and one small, to ensure the accuracy of batching and shorten the batching time. Some raw materials such as additives and vitamins with less dosage are manually weighed and put into the mixer manually.

Various raw materials are mixed in the feed mixer, and the mixed powder enters the puffing section for making extruded feed, and enters the pelleting section for making feed that does not need to be extruded.

(3) Granulation and screening

The 18 t/h shrimp and fish feed factory project uses thermal granulation to granulate. The granulation process uses steam modulation. The project uses a 15t/h biomass boiler to provide the steam required for granulation.

 The material from the mixing section is tempered through the conditioner, then indirectly heated to 85C with high-temperature steam for gelatinization, and then enters the shrimp feed pellet machine for granulation. The finished feed enters the impeller cooler for draft cooling.

Cooling is a physical process that reduces the moisture inside and outside the feed to the qualified moisture range. The cooled pellet feed enters the plane rotary grading sieve through the elevator, and the fine pellets or powder enter the granulation process again, and the coarse pellets enter the granulation process after being crushed.

(4) Extrusion & drying & spraying

The prepared, mixed and finely powdered materials first enter the puffing bin to be processed. When working, the feeder evenly and continuously feeds the material in the puffing bin into the dual-shaft differential speed conditioner for conditioning.

When the material enters the conditioner, it adds uniform, continuous and metered steam, water and other liquid additions. This is a critical link in the 18 t/h shrimp and fish feed factory.

After a certain conditioning time in the conditioner, the material enters the feeding section of the extrusion assembly to start the extrusion operation. The material is input from the feeding section, and the main function of the feeding section is to transport the material to the kneading area.

In the kneading section, the material undergoes strong stirring, mixing, shearing, etc., and the material is gradually matured or melted; entering the final aging section, the pressure and temperature are further increased, the material is further matured, and the starch is further processed.

Gelatinization, fat and protein denaturation, tissue homogenization and formation of non-crystalline texture, and the final material is extruded and cut into shape through the discharge assembly.

The extruded pellet enters the fish feed dryer through the air transportation system, and the steam-heated air is used as the drying medium. And the cross flow drying method is adopted to make the material and hot air realize moisture and heat exchange in the aqua feed dryer, so as to remove excess moisture in the material and make it to achieve the desired moisture requirements of the finished product.

Finally, through the spraying machine, the surface of the pellet feed is sprayed with liquids such as oil, vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids, etc.

(5) Measuring and packaging of finished products

Finished product packaging is the last process of 18 t/h shrimp and fish feed factory . There is a packing scale installed under the finished product warehouse, and the packing scale automatically quantitatively packs according to the amount set by the debugging, and then the bag mouth is sewed by the bag sewing machine to complete the production process.
