What is the difference between single screw and twin screw extruder?
Single screw extruder and twin screw extruder differ in production capacity. Single-screw extruders have a production capacity of 0.2–1.0 T/H. Twin-screw extruders can meet production capacity requirements of 0.5–12.0 T/H and above. This results in a significant difference in price between the two.
Single and twin screw extruder differ in structural design and applications. Single-screw extruders feature a simple structure and are easy to operate, making them suitable for basic feed production. Their low investment costs meet strict budget requirements.
Twin-screw extruders utilize a closely matched twin-screw structure that processes materials more effectively. Therefore, they are better suited for complex feed formulations with high protein and fat content. For large-scale production lines, twin-screw extruders are the better choice, as they offer a higher return on investment.

What is the difference between a single screw extruder machine and feed pellet mill?
A single-screw extruder uses high temperature and pressure to expand raw materials. It can be used to produce floating feed, sinking feed, and pet food. Its production capacity is relatively basic, making it suitable for small-scale production.
Animal feed granulators produce feed through high-temperature extrusion molding. The feed pellets they produce have a denser structure. They feature lower energy consumption and more stable production capacity. In the aquaculture feed sector, they are generally used for the production of sinking feed. We can provide high-efficiency fish feed pellet making machine and shrimp feed pellet machine.
–
What is the quality of the feed produced by this single-screw extruder?
Although this equipment has a relatively small production capacity range, it still delivers excellent performance. It utilizes a high-temperature extrusion and puffing process. This ensures the feed undergoes high-temperature sterilization and gelatinization, which is more beneficial for animal health. At the same time, it provides better digestibility and nutrient absorption.
The aquaculture feed produced by this equipment features high water resistance, which extends feeding time. This helps prevent waste and water pollution. Therefore, the feed produced by this equipment meets high-standard requirements.
–
Can this single screw extruder machine produce different types of fish feed?
This equipment is capable of producing fish feed based on standard formulations, particularly for common species such as carp, catfish, crucian carp, tilapia, and ornamental fish. By replacing the dies with different pore sizes, pellets of various diameters can be produced.
–
What is the difference between a dry type fish feed extruder and a wet type fish feed extruder?
The main difference lies in whether steam is added during production. Wet-type extruders create a high-temperature steam environment by introducing external steam during production. This allows for more thorough gelatinization of the starch in the raw materials, ensuring stable shaping and making it suitable for the production of floating feed. The feed produced in this way has better palatability and higher digestibility.
Dry-type extruders, on the other hand, do not require the addition of steam. They primarily rely on heat generated by screw shearing and friction to cook the material. This method is suitable for processing materials with low moisture content and is ideal for producing sinking feed. With a simple structural configuration and lower production costs, it is well-suited for small-scale facilities.
