Processing of Animal Feed (Fish Food)


Hosokawa Alpine supplies systems for grinding,
sieving and air classifying to the animal feed industry
on an international basis. Alpine fine impact mills UPZ are characterised by high end-product finenesses and throughput rates, especially for products containing fat such as flesh and chicken meal. Fish food is a product that places special demands on the processing, because it usually comprises a mixture of fish meal and additives such as shrimps and greaves.

The fish food pellets suitable for small and ornamental fish call for extremely high grinding finenesses, and these are achieved with our Zirkoplex classifier mills. The end-product fineness values can be adjusted steplessly as a function of the speed.

Because sand inclusions can never be ruled out in the case of shellfish, a certain degree of wear to the grinding/classifying elements must be expected. This is why these machine components are protected with aluminium oxide elements.
