High-Capacity Ring Die Feed Pellet Mills – 2–28 t/h for Poultry & Livestock Feed Production

High-Capacity Ring Die Feed Pellet Mills – 2–28 t/h for Poultry & Livestock Feed Production

Short Introduction

The SYLH Series ring die pellet mills deliver reliable, high-efficiency pelleting for commercial feed mills and large-scale farms. With capacities ranging from 2 to 28 tons per hour and pellet sizes adjustable from 2 to 12 mm, these machines are engineered for durable 24/7 operation. Featuring precision gear transmission, heavy-duty ring dies, and optional steam conditioning, the SYLH Series ensures uniform, high-quality feed pellets for poultry, swine, cattle, and aquatic species.

Key Specifications (Full Series)

Core Features & Advantages

1. High Output & Production Efficiency

   • The series covers a capacity range from 2 to 28 t/h, with the SYLH678 model delivering 8-25 t/h and the flagship SYLH768 reaching up to 28 t/h — perfectly suited for continuous, large-volume feed production.

   • Equipped with high-power main motors (up to 315 kW) to ensure stable and sustained operation under heavy loads.

2. Durable Ring Die & Precision Gear Drive

   • Heavy-duty ring die manufactured from high-grade alloy steel, offering exceptional wear resistance and extended service life even under high-pressure, high-abrasion conditions.

   • High-precision gear transmission system ensures maximum power efficiency, smooth operation, low noise, and superior durability compared to belt-driven systems.

3. Optimized for Poultry & Livestock Feed

   • Produces uniform, smooth pellets with diameters adjustable from 2 to 12 mm, suitable for chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle, sheep, and aquatic species.

   • Optional stainless steel conditioner with steam injection enhances feed gelatinization, improves pellet durability, and significantly reduces the fines rate.

4. Reliable Operation & Easy Maintenance

   • Fitted with SKF or equivalent high-quality bearings and advanced compensating coupling systems to guarantee stable 24/7 operation.

   • Many models feature an automatic lubrication system for maintenance without shutdown; optional electric ring die lifting devices simplify die changes and reduce downtime.

Typical Applications

• Large-scale feed processing plants — as the core pelleting equipment for commercial feed production.

• Integrated farming operations — producing high-quality feed on-site for tens of thousands to millions of poultry or livestock, ensuring cost control and consistent feed quality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between the SYLH series and belt-driven pellet mills?

A: The SYLH series uses a precision gear transmission system, which delivers higher power efficiency, better torque output, and lower energy loss compared to belt drives. Gear-driven systems also require less frequent maintenance, offer longer service life, and perform more reliably under continuous heavy-load operation — making them the preferred choice for industrial-scale production.

Q2: How do I choose the right model for my production needs?

A: Refer to the capacity range for each model:

• SYLH320 / 350: Ideal for small to medium farms or pilot production (2–6 t/h).

• SYLH400 / 420 / 508: Suited for medium to large feed mills (4–20 t/h).

• SYLH678 / 768: Designed for high-throughput industrial operations (8–28 t/h).

Consider your daily output requirements, available power supply, and future expansion plans when selecting a model.

Q3: What pellet sizes can this machine produce?

A: All SYLH series models can produce pellets with diameters ranging from 2 mm to 12 mm by simply changing the ring die. This covers most common feed types for poultry, swine, cattle, sheep, and aquatic species. Custom die sizes may also be available upon request.

Q4: How long does a ring die typically last?

A: Ring die service life depends on factors such as feed formulation, moisture content, abrasiveness of ingredients, and production volume. Under normal operating conditions with proper maintenance, a high-quality ring die can process 5,000 to 10,000 tons of feed before requiring replacement. Regular inspection and timely rotation of the die can help extend its lifespan.

Q5: Is the conditioner necessary? What does it do?

A: The conditioner is optional but highly recommended for most feed applications. It introduces steam into the feed mash, which improves gelatinization of starches, enhances pellet binding, increases pellet durability, and reduces fines. This results in better feed quality and higher animal intake. For heat-sensitive formulas (e.g., certain aquatic or vitamin-rich feeds), a cold-pressing bypass option can be considered.
