Moisture control in the main manufacturing process of animal feed processing plant

1. Moisture control during the raw material receiving process

In the process of receiving raw materials, sampling and testing moisture is one of the most important aspects of moisture control. The accuracy of the testing must be maintained, and the samples to be tested must be selected in accordance with the corresponding sampling standards to avoid leakage of raw materials with high moisture. Secondly, in the raw material sampling inspection, attention should be paid to whether the moisture level is consistent with the raw material, so as not to affect the quality of animal feed processing in the future. 

In addition, in order to ensure the accuracy of moisture detection, three to four parallel samples can be tested first, and then the average value can be used as the overall sample test value. Finally, the inspection department must strictly follow the acceptance criteria to review the raw material moisture content report. If unqualified raw materials are found, they must be strictly prohibited from being stored. The qualified raw materials must be clearly marked so that the production personnel can grasp the moisture content and other quality information. , Provide convenient matching conditions for future feed production.

2. Moisture control during raw material cleaning

Raw material cleaning is the most important process to ensure feed quality. Only by cleaning the feed ingredients can the agglomerated, agglomerated, and moldy raw materials be removed. For the raw materials with high inventory temperature, it can also help to control the moisture content. The increase in temperature can be effectively controlled by cleaning. The moisture content will also be greatly reduced, so that the raw materials with high moisture content can directly enter the next process, which provides a convenient and fast way for raw material processing.
 
3. Moisture control during crushing

The water content in the processed raw materials can directly affect the production efficiency of the crushing process. Professional crushing technicians should be arranged to comprehensively monitor the changes in the water during the crushing process. The crushing efficiency and the fineness of the crushed materials can be measured by the crushing material temperature machine. 

Analyze the moisture content of the raw materials, and use the multi-aperture crusher sieve to compare and analyze the crushed materials. After analysis, it is found that the smaller the crushed particles of the raw materials, the more obvious the moisture loss, and even a loss of about 1%. At the same time, it also affects the crushing efficiency and increases the energy consumption of electric energy. Therefore, the control of water in the crushing process must arouse the attention of the feed production enterprise to fundamentally ensure the quality of feed processing.

4. Moisture control during mixing

Moisture control in the mixing process refers to the process of adding moderate free water to the materials being mixed. This process is widely used in major feed production and processing plants, especially in special aquatic feed and pet feed manufacturers. The industry has received unanimous praise. However, the application on the production line of ordinary pellets is not satisfactory, because ordinary pellets cannot clarify the specific feed added moisture target. Once added excessively, it will affect the follow-up process of the feed, thereby affecting the efficiency and quality of the production enterprise, so it must be added. Vigorously control the moisture content of the mixed raw materials.

In summary, the control of feed moisture has a direct impact on the quality of feed processing and production economy. Related production departments must make corresponding adjustments to processing technology and equipment structure to reduce the probability of changes in feed moisture reduction or increase. It can stay in the feed stably. In the process of feed processing, a refined management model should be implemented, starting from a small point, and each process should be refined and information-based management, so that animal feed processing companies can obtain better economic benefits and improve their market competitiveness.
