Animal Feed Production Line in Saudi Arabia
RICHI Machinery has built an animal feed production line for a Saudi Arabian customer, the line is used for 5-6T/H cattle feed pellets and 10T/H chicken feed pellets production. The animal feed production plant adopted RICHI SZLH animal feed pelletizer, and the Saudi Arabian customer chose a fully automatic batching system for this animal feed production line.

How to set up the 5-6T/h cattle feed and 10T/H chicken feed production line?
The production line is customized by RICHI Machinery, which needs to consider how the mixed raw materials of grass and grain are made into feed pellets.
Determine feed formulation according to animal type
Through different feed formulations, different types and different yields of animal feed pellets are produced. The smaller the proportion of grass in the raw materials, the higher the capacity of the animal feed production line. The Saudi Arabian customer’s cattle feed formula consists of 33% alfalfa, while the chicken feed formula consists of very little grass. Therefore, the capacity of cattle feed pellets with the same SZLH animal feed pelletizer is lower than that of chicken feed pellets.
Find reliable feed equipment supplier
Feed pellet production equipment belongs to medium and large machinery, and the transaction volume of a complete animal feed production plant is also relatively high. Therefore, in cross-border procurement, we need to find a reliable supplier. It is best to have its own pellet equipment manufacturing plant and have rich experience, like RICHI Machinery. In this way, the risk can be minimized or zero in terms of trading, equipment manufacturing, transportation, installation and after-sales.
Design animal feed pelleting process according to raw materials
Different raw materials require different production processes and equipment, such as the crushing of grass and the crushing of grain require different types of hammer mills.
The animal feed pelleting processes includes crushing of alfalfa, drying of alfalfa powder, crushing of corn and soybean meal, automatic batching, powder feed mixing, pelletizing, pellet cooling, pellet crumbling, screening, auto-packing.
Propose solutions according to process flow and plant size
Each processing section has a variety of solutions. For example, the batching system has a PLC batching system independent of the production line and a fully automatic batching system built directly on the steel frame of the production line. They vary in cost and footprint. When we propose animal feed production plant solutions, we combine the customer’s raw materials, production needs, budget and plant size.
Select the equipment according to the production solution
Equipment is the core of the animal feed production line, so we need to choose the most suitable feed pellet production equipment. For the Saudi Arabian project, RICHI selected the right equipment for the customer based on the raw materials, such as SZLH chicken and cattle feed pellet making machine, grass hammer mill, feed crushing machine and so on. Besides, RICHI can customize equipment for customers.
Installation and operation of equipment
After all the above is completed, we wait for the manufacturing and delivery of the equipment, and finally carry out the installation and trial running. It should be noted that for such a large and complex production line, try to find a supplier who can assist in installation and worker training. This can avoid difficulties in the installation process, affecting the progress of the project. It can also avoid operational errors in the animal feed pelleting process that can lead to the shutdown of the animal feed production line. Finally, it will affect the benefit of cattle feed mill.
Advantages of the animal feed production line in Saudi Arabia
Batching and pelletizing are the keys of cattle and chicken feed pellets production, the batching system and SZLH animal feed production machine are also the highlights of the project.
Fully automatic atching system
The calcium content requirement in the feed for chicks and young chickens is 0.9%-1.1%, and during the laying period it should be 3.3%-3.5%. High calcium content in non-egg-producing feeds will cause calcium metabolism disorders, induce urate deposition in the kidneys, and loose stools. Insufficient calcium during the laying period will cause the eggshell become thinner, the egg breakage rate will increase, and induce cartilage disease and egg-laying fatigue syndrome in caged chickens.

High calcium content in non-egg-producing feeds will cause calcium metabolism disorders, induce urate deposition in the kidneys, and loose stools. Insufficient calcium during the laying period will cause the eggshell become thinner, the egg breakage rate will increase, and induce cartilage disease and egg-laying fatigue syndrome in caged chickens.
Pellet crumbler
pellet crumbler is used in this production line. The smaller the diameter of the ring die hole of the animal feed production machine, the smaller the diameter of the pellets produced, but the capacity will also be reduced. Pellet crumbler can break 3-6mm pellets into 1-2.5mm small size feed pellets, thereby increasing production capacity and reducing energy efficiency of the production line.
The pellet crumbler is installed below the pellet cooling machine, saving on conveying equipment and floor space.
Advantages of chicken and cattle feed pellets
Chicken feed pellets are generally 3-4mm, which has the advantages of rich nutrition, convenient transportation, and not easy to grade. In modern chicken farms, pellet feeds are easier to manage and can accelerate the growth of chickens.
Cattle feed pellets can generally be 6-8mm, the production line of cattle feed pellets are complete cattle feed pellets, containing fiber, energy, protein and various trace elements, can meet the taste and nutritional needs of cattle at the same time.
Can process a variety of raw materials
The production line can process a wide range of raw materials, such as alfalfa, dogwood, ryegrass, sudangrass, Mexican corngrass, elephant grass, hemp and other forages; Corn straw, soybean straw, wheat straw, sorghum straw, rice straw, rice husk and other crop straw; Corn, wheat, soybean, soybean meal, sunflower meal and other grains; All kinds of premixes.
Therefore, the project has a stronger flexibility, and the customer’s raw materials are highly optional.
Can produce a variety of animal feed
An animal feed production line of the Saudi Arabian customer enables the production of both cattle and chicken feed pellets. Besides, more kinds of animal feed can be produced by changing the formula.
As a cattle feed pellet plant, it can also produce sheep, rabbits, horses, camels and other ruminant feed pellets.
As a chicken feed production line, it can also produce duck, goose, quail, pigeon, Turkey and other poultry animal feed pellets.
