Feed pulverization plays a crucial role in determining the digestibility of the feed, the overall performance of animals, and the quality of the final product. The right particle size not only enhances feed conversion efficiency but also reduces fecal output, improves animal growth performance, and makes the feeding process more efficient during mixing, pelleting, and extrusion. Understanding the purpose of grinding is essential for optimizing feed formulation and processing.
One of the main objectives of feed grinding is to increase the surface area of the ingredients, which significantly improves the digestion and absorption of nutrients by the animals. Research in animal nutrition has shown that reducing particle size can enhance the digestion of dry matter, protein, and energy, while also lowering the feed-to-meat ratio, leading to better productivity and economic returns.
Another important goal of pulverization is to improve the processing characteristics of the materials. By grinding the feed to a consistent particle size, the material becomes more uniform, making it easier to mix and reducing the likelihood of segregation after blending. For trace elements and other small components, proper grinding ensures that these ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. In addition, when it comes to pellet production, the particle size of the ground material directly affects the quality of the pellets. It influences the durability of the finished product and the stability of aquatic feeds in water, which is especially critical for fish feed. Therefore, selecting the appropriate grinding method and particle size is vital for achieving high-quality, effective feed formulations.
Forward Plate Compactor
Vibrating plate compactors are mainly suitable for materials with less cohesion and friction between compacting particles, such as river sand, gravel and asphalt. The main working parameters of the vibrating plate compaction are: the bottom area of the working plate, the mass of the whole machine, the excitation force and the excitation frequency. Under normal circumstances, the bottom plate area of the same type of plate is about the same, so the performance of the plate rammer is mainly affected by the quality, excitation force and excitation frequency of the whole machine. The excitation force is mainly used to maintain the forced vibration of the tamped material; The excitation frequency affects the tamping efficiency and compaction degree, that is, under the same excitation force, the higher the excitation frequency, the higher the tamping efficiency and compactness.
