How to Choose Aqua Feed Processing Equipment
With the rapid development of aquaculture, its economic benefit has become better and better and its farming types also increased gradually,
therefore, various aquatic feeds, in particular for floating extruded fish feed pellet, rise in response to the proper time and conditions, which makes fish feed production become a way for people to enrich. Because aquatic animals like fish and shrimp have small intestines and stomach with bad digest and absorption ability, the manufacturing process of aquaculture feed has much higher requirement than that of livestock feed, which means it's very important to choose suitable fish feed processing equipment to produce aqua feed.
Features of Aquaculture Feed
Before choosing fish feed production equipment, it's very necessary to learn about the features of aquatic feed:
1.small particle size Due to short intestines and stomach and other physioloical properties of aquatic animal,in order to accelerate digest and absorption ,the fineness of pulverization of aquatic feed should be smaller than poultry feed. For example, when producing eel feed or prawn feed, the particle size should reach 80-120 meshes.
2.High protein content and low carbohydrate. The protein content of livestock feed is often less than 20%,while that of aquaculture feed is always 30%-40%,and thereinto green turtle and eel feed protein content is up to 65%-70%.
3.Pellet feed structure is compact, with higher cohesiveness and water resistance. For instance, prawn feed requires the water stability of pellet feed up to 2 hours.
4.Cross contamination should be strictly forbidden during the process of aquaculture feed production. Some raw materials need to get through aseptic processing, so the selected device should be convenient to clean and have few reminder,especially when producing prawn or eel feed, do not produce other type feed, avoiding cross contamination.
Producing high quality fish feed should depend on scientific and reasonable processing technology, combined with advanced, reliable and stable feed processing equipment, which also highlights the significance of processing machines.
