Results for “Fish Feed Pellet Machine”

A sinking fish feed pellet machine producing dense pellets that settle through the water column. This is the correct product for bottom feeding species, including carp, shrimp and many catfish systems where feed is taken from the pond floor.

Pellet durability determines how much of the feed survives the descent intact. A pellet that breaks up on the way down is lost. Conditioning and die specification are what control it, and we advise on both rather than simply supplying a machine. Contact us with your species and formulation for a recommendation.

A floating fish feed pellet machine producing expanded pellets for surface feeding species. Expansion during forming is what makes the pellet buoyant, and the degree of expansion is adjustable through process settings.

How long a pellet needs to float depends on the species and how quickly it feeds. Slower feeding species need a pellet that stays up longer, and that is a matter of tuning the process rather than buying a different machine. Pellet size is changed by die. Contact us with your species and we will advise on settings and die selection.

A fish feed pellet machine producing pressed pellets for aquaculture. Pressed pellets sink, which suits bottom feeding species and species that are not fed at the surface, and they are produced at a lower energy cost per tonne than extruded floating feed.

Where the species takes feed from the bottom, a sinking pellet is the correct product and a floating one is simply more expensive to make. The machine covers a range of pellet diameters by changing the die. Used by farms and small mills. Contact us to discuss whether sinking or floating feed suits the species you are raising.
