What Is A Animal Feed Granulator?
An animal feed granulator is a key processing machine designed to convert mixed powdered feed ingredients, such as grains, protein sources, vitamins, and minerals, into compact, high-density pellets. Through mechanical pressing and conditioning, the granulator improves the physical quality of feed, enhances nutrient absorption, and ensures consistent pellet size for different animal species including livestock, poultry, ruminants, and aquatic animals.
RICHI feed pellet granulators offer adjustable pellet diameters, high-efficiency transmission systems, and durable ring die or flat die structures, making them suitable for both small farms and large industrial feed plants. By minimizing feed wastage, reducing dust, improving storage stability, and enabling automated continuous production, this machine has become an indispensable machine in the entire feed manufacturing process.
Key Technical Features Of The Animal Feed Granulator
- All core bearings use SKF, offering higher stability, longer service life, and smoother running under continuous operation.
- Equipped with a Siemens motor to ensure reliable power output, reduced failure rate, and improved overall efficiency.
- The optimized mechanical design reduces machine volume, cuts energy consumption, and minimizes operating noise.
- Feeding speed can be precisely adjusted according to different formulas and material characteristics, ensuring stable pelletizing.
- All parts in contact with raw materials are made of stainless steel to avoid contamination and improve pellet quality and durability.
- Built-in safety pin mechanism protects the machine by automatically stopping operation under overload conditions.
- Two cutters allow flexible adjustment of pellet length; the handle adjusts the distance between cutter and ring die for accurate cutting.
- The large handle adjusts cutter position; the small handle works as a limiter to prevent cutter–ring die collision and ensure safe operation.
- Different pellet diameters and hardness levels can be produced by changing ring dies, making the machine suitable for various animals and farms.
The Main Parts Of The Animal Feed Granulator
Frequency impeller feeder
The feeder uses a variable-frequency motor with overload protection to ensure stable and adjustable feeding. It allows different materials to be supplied at the proper rate and keeps the pellet mill running at optimal efficiency.
Conditioner
The conditioner uses saturated steam to mature and gelatinize materials, improving pellet quality and hygiene. Single-layer, double-layer, and triple-layer designs are available, and boilers can be supplied for continuous steam support.
Pelletizing chamber
The pelletizing chamber is structurally optimized to ensure material uniformity and stable compression performance. The improved chamber design allows the feed pellet machine to maximize its output and maintain consistent pellet quality.
Stainless ring die
The stainless-steel ring die provides high durability, strong corrosion resistance, and stable pellet formation. A variety of die sizes are available, allowing users to produce pellets of different diameters and achieve better economic efficiency.
Siemens motor
The animal feed granulator is powered by a high-efficiency Siemens motor, which reduces energy consumption and ensures stable and reliable operation. A high protection rating guarantees longer service life, safer operation, and higher production stability.
Electric control cabinet
The independent electrical control cabinet allows separate control of the pellet mill and provides overload protection and emergency stop functions. It enables safe operation and allows maintenance without stopping the entire production line.

What raw materials can the animal feed granulator process?
Our granulator is designed with wide raw-material adaptability, suitable for most feed formulas used in livestock, poultry, ruminant, and aquatic production. It can process common agricultural by-products such as corn, wheat, barley, soybean meal, rice bran, and sorghum. Protein-rich ingredients like fish meal, meat meal, and various oil cakes are also compatible, as well as fibrous materials including alfalfa, grass powder, and straw meal.
Many users also add functional ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, or premixes, and the granulator can handle them efficiently if properly mixed. Materials for aquafeed or special feed formulas can also be processed effectively with appropriate moisture and particle size. Overall, as long as raw materials are crushed to the proper size (usually ≤3 mm) and moisture-adjusted, the machine produces stable, uniform, and high-density pellets. We can provide guidance if you have specific ingredients to ensure optimal pelletizing performance.

I run a family farm. Can one granulator meet both poultry and livestock feed needs?
Yes, a single animal feed granulator can meet the diverse feed requirements of a small or family farm. By selecting the appropriate ring die and adjusting conditioning parameters such as moisture content and steam, the same machine can produce pellets suitable for poultry, pigs, cattle, and even small ruminants.
Many farms successfully use one granulator to produce multiple feed types. The key is to follow recommended formulas and operate the machine according to the raw material characteristics and pellet size requirements. With proper operation, the granulator can deliver consistent pellet quality, minimize feed waste, and improve overall farm efficiency.

My raw materials contain high fiber (such as grass powder). Will the pelletizing effect be affected?
High-fiber raw materials can pose challenges in pelletizing if not properly processed, but our animal feed granulators are designed to handle such materials efficiently. To achieve stable pellet formation, it is important to select a suitable ring die with an appropriate compression ratio and adjust conditioning parameters, such as moisture content and steam input.
Many farms use high-fiber ingredients like alfalfa, grass powder, or straw meal for ruminants and aquaculture feed. With correct ring die selection, pre-crushing, and proper moisture control, the granulator can produce uniform, high-density pellets. Our technical team can provide guidance on die selection, feed formulas, and operating parameters to ensure optimal pellet quality for high-fiber materials.
