Fish feed mill plant
Fish feed mill plant uses advanced equipment and technology to produce high-quality fish, shrimp, crabs and other aquatic feed, which has played a great positive role in the development of fisheries and the economic benefits of aquaculture. RICHI’s business is to provide effective solutions and high-quality production equipment for fish feed mills, including plant construction consultation, production line design, fish feed mill machine manufacturing, equipment installation, etc.
Brief of Fish feed mill plant built by RICHI Machinery
RICHI Machinery is a professional fish feed plant manufacturer, which can design, upgrade, transform, build and install for large, medium and small fish feed mills of different sizes and types.
- Feed mill capacity: 0.5-60T/H
- Finished pellet diameter: 0.6-20mm
- Feed features: sinking, slow sinking, floating
- Can feed aquatic animals: catfish, carp, tilapia, salmon, squat fish, cod, salmon, tuna, sardines, basa fish, crab, prawns, shrimp and so on.
- Raw materials: animal protein such as fish meal and shrimp meal, vegetable protein such as soybean and algae, animal and vegetable oils such as fish oil and rapeseed oil, energy such as corn and wheat flour, premix such as trace mineral and additives, flavoring agents.
Aqua feed plant is suitable for the processing of raw materials such as protein and fat, which meets the needs of fish for feed. In addition, the types and growth stages of fish are different, and the formula of feed is not exactly the same, but the types of raw materials are not very different. The design and equipment selection of aquatic feed plants vary according to the needs of fish feed products.
Application and type of fish feed plant
A competitive fish feed plant can provide a variety of aquaculture plants with high nutrition, easy to eat, good water resistance of fish feed, to solve the problem of fish eating difficult, poor absorption, slow growth and so on.
floating fish feed mill
Floating fish feed mill adopts the extrusion technology to produce the extruded feed pellets floating on the water surface. The main equipment includes floating fish feed extruder, drying machine, spraying machine and so on. There is usually a more typical floating fish feed production line, of course, the design of the production line and equipment configuration change according to the production needs of the aqua feed plant.
The processing temperature of extruded feed is higher, and the oil content is also higher, which are conducive to the absorption and growth of fish. The floating feed is suitable for fish that often breathe on the water surface and are used to eating on the water surface. The feeders can also clearly see if the fish food needs to be added.
Sinking fish feed plant
The sinking fish feed plant is mainly used to produce benthic fish feed or shrimp feed. The characteristic of the feed is that it will sink in the bottom, and the water resistance requirement is relatively high. If farmed fish prefer to live on the bottom, then the sinking fish feed can promote its feeding and growth.
The production of sinking fish feed can use RICHI SZLH pelletizing machine or extruder machine, and the required sinking fish feed pellets can be produced through the appropriate formula and process. Of course, in the pelletizing of sinking fish feed, the cost of the pelletizing machine is less. However, in the production of aquatic feed, the expansion machine is more widely used. We choose profitable equipment according to our actual situation.
Floating and sinking aquatic feed plants
The aquatic feed plant will generally be a composite line, which can produce both sinking fish feed and floating fish feed. For example, floating fish and shrimp feed mill, the pelletizing section of its composite production line will most likely be equipped with two kinds of equipment, floating fish feed extruder machine and shrimp feed pellet machine. The crushing section, the drying and cooling section will also be adjusted according to the needs of feed production.
This composite production line has a wide range of applications and a high utilization rate throughout the year. Some sections of the production line are shared, which can save fish feed mill plant cost. Therefore, for want to produce a variety of types of fish feed mills, it has a high cost performance.

How to build a fish feed mill plant?
The choice of fish feed pellet mill and equipment needs to be determined by the following comprehensive considerations:
Feeding needs or feed sales needs
We have built a lot of fish feed plants, most of the customers produce fish feed for sale, there are a small number of customers produce fish feed for their own use. For either purpose, we need to determine the type, size and demand of fish feed we want to produce, so that we can choose the right fish feed pellet plant solution and equipment.
Feed plant area or plant space size
This is related to the solution design of the production line, and different solution designs will have different sizes. The new factory can be planned according to the solution design. If it is the original plant, we can design according to the size of the plant.
Budget your investment
The amount of investment is the key to consider, because the main purpose of building a feed mill is also profit. We need to choose the small fish feed mill that can quickly return the medium and large fish feed mill plant cost with high long-term income within our affordability. Because the size of the feed mill is not the same, the cost of the fish feed machine, the cost of the steel frame, and the installation cost are also very different.
Original owned industry and local conditions for plant construction
Many of the customers are the owners of fishing companies or feed mills, and they will expand or upgrade their businesses. A fish feed pellet mill full of opportunities is a good project. The construction of fish feed plant also needs to consider the local power, water sources, government support, and the development of aquaculture.
