Flow Chart for Cattle Feed Pellet Production Line

To make your animal feed you will need a cattle feed pellet production line . The unit acts by crushing and mixing the raw materials that are fed into it. The mixing action happens in the feed pellet blender, this action will ensure an even distribution of all materials across all batches. The final product that will come out of the cattle feed pellet machine will be soft and moist to the touch. The next process after this is what we call pelleting or the creation of pellets. Up to this point, the product is still moist and this is not what you want. It is more likely that the pellets will contain moisture of at least 17% when the ideal moisture is below 12% at this instant. The pellets, still in their moist condition are then dried in a cooler to attain the desired condition.
