Results for “Fish Food Extruder”

A fish food extruder plant supplied as a complete installation built around the extruder. Grinding, mixing and conditioning feed into it, and drying, oil coating and cooling follow, with each stage sized to the extruder's throughput.

The equipment after the extruder is as important as the extruder itself. Pellets leave it hot and moist, and without proper drying and cooling they will not store. Feed that moulds in the bag is a total loss. The plant includes those stages as standard. Contact us with your target output for a layout drawing and full equipment list.

An aquarium fish food extruder producing expanded feed for ornamental species. Extrusion cooks the mix under heat and pressure and expands it as it leaves the die, giving a light pellet that floats and stays intact at the surface where ornamental fish feed.

Floating feed matters more in an aquarium than in a pond: uneaten feed that sinks fouls the tank and clouds the water. The extruder produces the small, uniform, low-dust pellet that aquarium keepers expect. It is used by ornamental feed producers and by hatcheries raising fry. Contact us for details of pellet sizes and the dryer and coater needed to complete the line.

A single screw fish food extruder for producing aquatic feed, suited to standard formulations with moderate fat and moisture content.

For a farm or mill running a consistent recipe, a single screw machine does the job at a lower price and with fewer parts to maintain than a twin screw. Where formulations vary widely or carry high oil inclusion, the twin screw machine is the better choice. Contact us with the recipes you intend to run and we will compare the two against them honestly.

A floating fish food extruder machine producing expanded buoyant feed, with the degree of expansion controlled through moisture, temperature and screw speed during running.

How long a pellet needs to float depends on the species and how quickly it feeds. Slower feeders need a pellet that stays up longer, and that is a matter of adjusting the process rather than buying different equipment. The adjustability is what lets one machine serve several species. Contact us with your species and we will advise on settings and die selection.

A floating fish food extruder plant for producing expanded buoyant feed, supplied as a complete installation built around the extruder.

The plant includes the stages either side of the extruder: grinding and mixing before, and drying, oil coating and cooling after. Those downstream stages determine whether the feed stores well, and feed that moulds in the bag is a total loss, so they are supplied as part of the plant rather than as options. Contact us with your target output and building dimensions for a layout and quotation.

A double screw fish food extruder, with two intermeshing screws rather than one. The twin screw arrangement conveys the mix more positively and gives better control of temperature and moisture, which matters when a formulation carries high fat or high moisture content.

Twin screw machines handle a wider range of recipes than single screw ones, including feeds with fresh fish content or high oil inclusion that a single screw struggles to move consistently. They are the choice where the formulation varies or where premium feeds are being produced. Enquire for a comparison against the single screw version for the recipes you intend to run.

A fish food extruder producing expanded floating feed. The mix is cooked under heat and pressure in the barrel and expands on leaving the die, giving a light pellet that floats and holds together on the water surface.

Extrusion also cooks the starch in the formulation, improving digestibility and reducing the proportion that passes through the fish uneaten to settle on the pond bottom. Pellet size is set by the die. The extruder sits at the centre of a line, with grinding and mixing before and drying and coating after. Contact us for die sizes and line requirements.
