Regularly maintain the core components of the Floating Fish Feed Pellet Extruder Machine to ensure extrusion efficiency. The screw and extrusion chamber are the core wear parts of the dog food pellet machine. After long-term operation, screw wear and increased clearance will lead to decreased propulsion force and reduced production capacity. It is recommended to check the wear condition of the screw and extrusion chamber weekly, replace the wear-resistant bushing every 1000 hours of operation, and replace the screw every 2000 hours. For example, a pet food processing plant restored the small dog food pellet machine's production capacity from 50kg/h to 60kg/h and reduced energy consumption by 10% by regularly replacing the screw. Additionally, after each production run, the screw and extrusion chamber should be cleaned with bran or cornmeal to prevent residual raw materials from becoming moldy, which would affect subsequent production efficiency and feed quality.
Inspect and maintain the transmission system to ensure stable power transmission. The stability of the transmission system (motor, reducer, belt) directly affects the operating efficiency of the pet food making machine for home. Motor failure and loose belts will cause speed fluctuations and reduced production capacity. It is recommended to check the motor's operating status daily to ensure there are no abnormal noises and the temperature is normal; check the belt tension weekly, and adjust it promptly if it becomes loose to prevent slippage and insufficient power transmission. For example, if the speed of a small pet food making machine fluctuates, it was found that the belt was loose. After adjusting the belt tension, the speed returned to stability, and production capacity increased by 10%. In addition, regularly add lubricating oil to the reducer and change the lubricating oil every 500 hours of operation to reduce mechanical wear and improve transmission efficiency.
Optimize the feeding system maintenance to ensure smooth feeding. Hopper blockage and worn feeding screws can lead to uneven feeding, affecting the continuous operation of the floating fish feed extruder machine. It is recommended to clean the feeding hopper daily to prevent raw material clumping and blockage; check the wear of the feeding screw weekly, and repair or replace it promptly if the screw blades are worn. Installing a vibration device at the feeding hopper can effectively prevent raw material bridging and blockage, improving feeding efficiency. For example, a family-run pet food producer reduced feeding blockage by 80% after installing a small vibrator in the feeding hopper, extended the continuous operating time of the pellet mill, and increased daily production capacity by 15%.
