Poultry Feed Plant - Step-by-Step Operating Process

Step 1: Raw Material Intake

The process starts with the intake of raw ingredients such as maize, soybean meal, wheat, rice bran, oil cakes, and feed additives used in poultry feed production.

Feed Hopper Machine: Raw materials are loaded into the hopper to ensure controlled and continuous feeding.
Belt Conveyor: Transfers bulk raw materials from storage to the processing section efficiently.
Bucket Elevator: Lifts raw materials vertically to the grinding section, saving floor space and maintaining smooth material flow.

Step 2: Grinding (Mash Preparation)

Poultry feed requires finer grinding for better digestion and feed conversion.

Vibro Feeder Machine: Regulates the flow of material into the grinder, preventing overloading and ensuring uniform grinding.
Hammer Mill / Feed Grinder Machine: Grinds raw materials into fine mash. Smaller screen sizes are used to achieve the particle size required for poultry feed.

Step 3: Mixing & Nutrient Dosing

This stage ensures accurate and consistent nutrition in every batch.

Screw Conveyor: Transfers the ground mash from the hammer mill to the mixer in an enclosed system, minimizing dust and feed loss.
Feed Mixture Machine: Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and supplements are added and thoroughly mixed to produce a homogeneous poultry feed blend.

Step 4: Pelleting Process

The mixed mash is converted into poultry feed pellets.

Feed Pellet Mill: The feed mash is compressed through a precision die to produce small-diameter, high-density poultry feed pellets, suitable for broilers and layers.

Step 5: Cooling & Crumbling

Pellets are stabilized and sized according to bird age.

Cattle Feed CF Cooler: Uses ambient air to cool pellets, reduce moisture, and increase pellet hardness and shelf life.
Feed Crumbler Machine: (For chicks) Pellets are passed through the crumbler to produce uniform crumbles suitable for young birds.
