[0059] Moist feed is placed in storage bin 211. Driven by cylinder 201, pusher plate 210 pushes feed toward pelleting plate 212, causing feed to be squeezed out from the round hole on the side wall of storage bin 211. Movable motor 202 rotates continuously, causing movable plate 203 to drive pelleting plate 212 to move up and down inside outer shell 101. During the movement, pelleting plate 212 comes into contact with the feed squeezed out by pusher plate 210, and pelleting plate 212 divides feed into pellets that fall from the rectangular opening on the dividing plate onto the inclined surface inside conveyor box 204 below. The feed pellets can roll on the inclined surface. At the same time, vibrating motor 213 drives cam 218 to rotate, and cam 218 contacts the bottom of storage box 209, causing storage box 209 to rotate. 09 The feed powder inside the storage box 209 is shaken up and down, and leaks out from the small round hole at the bottom during the shaking process. The feed powder is scattered onto the inclined surface of the conveyor box 204. As the feed pellets roll, the surface of the feed pellets will be covered with dry feed powder. The conveyor belt 207 is located at the bottom of the inclined surface inside the conveyor box 204. The feed pellets can roll onto the conveyor belt 207. Driven by the conveyor motor 206, the conveyor belt 207 conveys the feed pellets forward.
