Pellet mill

Today’s demands for high-quality animal feed production require advanced pelleting equipment. Decades of experience and in-depth knowledge of the pelleting process have resulted in a range of proven ANDRITZ pellet mills. These machines stand out for their high performance, reliability, feed hygiene, ease of maintenance, and low energy consumption.

 

ANDRITZ FeedMax G Series Pellet Mill

Our partner ANDRITZ’s FeedMax G series features a new optimized design that ensures highly efficient feed pelleting. It combines the best of current pelleting technology with the proven features of ANDRITZ gear-driven pellet mills and offers the highest output per kWh in its class. The series is available in G7, G9, and G12 models.

 

Advantages of the FeedMax series:

  • Compact profile, small footprint, and modular design, making it easy to integrate into feed plants.

  • Internal spray-nozzle lubrication system with proven effectiveness in ensuring optimal lubrication conditions for the gears.

  • Efficient feed distribution: a unique, one-piece adjustable feed plough design allows quick and easy adjustment while ensuring uniform feed distribution across the die area and ahead of each roll.

  • Designed for a longer service life: all parts that come into contact with the feed are made of stainless steel, including the roller main shaft and die housing.

  • Tapered die fit with a self-piloting effect, making die changes smooth and easy.

 

Sprout Pellet Mills

The Sprout series is available in gear-driven and V-belt versions.

 

Sprout - Gear-Driven

For high-capacity pelleting processes and production schedules that require frequent die changes, the Sprout gear-driven pellet mill offers power and versatility. Thanks to its quick-change pelleting cartridge, dies can be replaced in approximately 10 minutes to accommodate changes in production schedules or routine maintenance. The cartridge contains the die housing, die, die cover, rolls, and main shaft. It can be easily removed from the pellet mill and transported on a sturdy cart to a stand for storage or maintenance.

 

Sprout - V-Belt

The Sprout V-belt pellet mill offers very low production costs through a simple and highly efficient design. Its drive system features a straightforward configuration consisting of two rugged bearings, a main shaft, and the die housing. With more than 40 years of proven operation, the V-belt system uses fewer components, resulting in less wear, quieter operation, and lower maintenance costs. This highly reliable equipment enables pellet production at one of the lowest costs per ton available.
