Understanding Cattle Feed Processing Techniques: Key Steps and Practices

Cattle feed processing is an important part of the livestock industry, and the feed processing industry has formed a complete set of cattle feed production process. Through scientific processes and advanced cattle feed manufacturing equipment, cattle feed processing plants can efficiently transform various raw materials into nutritionally balanced feed products. By continuously optimizing these production links, feed production plants can improve production efficiency, reduce cattle feed production costs, ensure product quality, and thus meet market demand and enhance their competitiveness.

Overview of Cattle Feed Pellet Manufacturing Process

After receiving the raw materials, the cattle feed mill will store them in suitable conditions for preservation. Subsequently, when they are needed, the raw materials are processed into finished cattle feed pellets through the following steps。

Cattle Feed Pellet Manufacturing Process Flow Chart

  • Raw Material Cleaning and Crushing: Use sieving machine, stone removing machine and other equipment to remove impurities in the raw material, and then use the grinding machine to crush the raw material to achieve the required particle size.
  • Mixing and Formulation: Use the mixer machine to mix all kinds of raw materials according to the formula ratio to ensure the uniform distribution of feed ingredients.
  • Conditioning and Pelletizing: The mixed feed will be conditioned through the conditioner, so that it has good conditions for pelletizing, and then pelletized through the pelletizer machine. Usually, professional feed pellet mills are equipped with a conditioning system.
  • Cooling: The pelletized feed pellets are cooled to reduce their temperature and ensure the hardness and storage performance of the pellets.
  • Sieving and Packing: Sieve the cooled feed pellets, remove the unqualified pellets, and finally pack them.

Adhering to cattle feed pellets specifications is crucial.​ Understanding cattle feed production requirements will help improve feed factory efficiency, ensure product quality, and maintain nutritional balance.

  •   Crushing Fineness: the fineness of raw material crushing directly affects the quality of the particles, the general requirements of raw material crushing fineness of about 1mm.
  •    Mixing Uniformity: the mixing process to ensure the uniform distribution of various raw materials, usually required to mix the uniformity of more than 95%.
  •   Conditioning: Conditioning temperature and time have a greater impact on the quality of particles, usually the conditioning temperature between 70-90℃, conditioning time of 30-60s. The quality of particles should be determined by the quality of the raw materials.
  •   Pelleting: the pelleting process requires good molding of pellets, moderate hardness, generally control the diameter of the particles between 3-8mm.
Animal Type Pellet Size (Diameter)
Chickens 2-4 mm
Pigs 4-6 mm
Cattle 6-8 mm
Sheep 3-5 mm
Rabbits 3-4 mm
Fish 1-3 mm
Horses 8-12 mm
  •   Cooling and Drying: the temperature of the cooled pellets should be 3-5℃ below room temperature, and the moisture content is between 10-12%.

Animal feed specifications vary. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. We not only provide high-quality cattle feed processing equipment, but also provide you with complete feed processing technology and cattle feed manufacturing training services.
