The KN Series Ruminant Pellet Mill offers extensive versatility, suitable for pelleting diverse formulations such as hay powder for cattle and sheep, feeds with pre-added molasses, complete feeds for all growth stages, and coarse fiber poultry feeds. It allows for differentiated configurations and personalized customization to meet specific user needs and achieve high-quality production standards.
Performance Characteristics
01 Guaranteed High-Quality Pellet Production
The mill ensures superior pellet quality and maximum capacity through precise control. It utilizes full-system moisture control and highly effective steam usage (with a measured steam utilization rate of >92%). The combination of forced feeding technology and special roll configurations guarantees the high hardness required for ruminant pellets. Furthermore, the use of high-strength ring dies increases power per unit area by 15%, further enhancing final pellet quality.
02 Enhanced Operational Efficiency
Production is optimized through technological and procedural adjustments. The mill is designed for regional and seasonal adjustments based on specific formulas and production modes. The STZN conditioner prevents steam diffusion by adding steam internally from the rotor, ensuring complete material contact and absorption. An external liquid addition system (with molasses and two-fluid technology) satisfies varied liquid requirements. Automation, including automatic lubrication and electric lifting, significantly reduces labor costs. The forced feeding and special roll configurations enable smooth compression of low-bulk-density and complex materials, resulting in a production capacity of 9–12 t/h (with hay powder addition 20% to 40%), representing an efficiency increase of 15%–20%.
03 Significant Reduction in Wear and Tear Costs
The mill actively reduces the largest operational cost factor: wear on the ring die and rolls (which typically accounts for >50% of total pelleting system loss). The use of specialized ruminant ring dies and rolls dramatically reduces replacement frequency, leading to annual savings. Additionally, specialized wear-resistant picks on conditioners and deflectors reduce replacements when processing high-fiber ruminant recipes, leading to an overall reduction in operational costs of more than 10%.
04 Intelligent Operation and Minimal Labor
The system incorporates smart technologies to reduce manual labor and boost efficiency. Features like automatic lubrication for the main shaft and rolls, and automatic adjustment of the roll-to-die gap, reduce physical labor while enhancing production efficiency. The conditioner features self-cleaning cylinder walls and rotors, which facilitates residue removal and minimizes the time wasted on manual cleaning, ensuring automated operation.
