Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed production forming technology, specifically a fish feed pellet mill. Background Technology

[0002] Fish feed is a nutritionally formulated feed specifically designed for aquaculture. Its main components include plant proteins and energy sources such as fishmeal, soybean meal, corn, and wheat, along with added vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Depending on the species being farmed, it can be categorized as floating, sinking, or slow-sinking feed, with particle sizes ranging from 0.5 mm to 10 mm. Modern fish feed emphasizes high efficiency and environmental friendliness, employing extrusion technology to improve digestibility (reaching over 85%) and reduce the feed conversion ratio (1.2-1.8). Special formulas also include probiotics, immune enhancers, and other functional ingredients to reduce aquaculture pollution (nitrogen emissions reduced by 30%). Feed forms include pellets and micro-pellets to meet the needs of various growth stages; for example, the protein content of starter feed for fry can reach over 45%, while adult fish feed contains approximately 28-35%.
