To procure extremely hard pellets, FEEDTECH manufactures low energy consuming Feed Compactor. Operating Principal Steam and the liquids are transferred into a double walled housing and the mixture is compacted hydraulically in the compacting chamber. Paddles with adjustable height and pitch guarantee a homogenous mixture and a hygienic process. The mixture is forced into the compacting chamber, through three rotating rollers, where it is pressed in two conic compacting chambers. Three hydraulic cylinders accurately control the adjustable distance (3-45 mm) between the compacting chambers, which combined with a motor power of 250 kW. And it ensures optimum absorption of steam and liquids, higher pelleting capacity and excellent pellet quality.
FEEDTECH designs and manufactures two types (500×1500 & 700×1500) of Feed Compactor which are highly preferred by our customers.
Purpose of Use
Hard pellets production consumes a lot of energy, therefore firms seek more efficient and economic compacting methods. Feed Compactor answers that need with its unique concept. Thanks to the feedback we receive from our customers, we know that it consumes less energy than an expander.
