company news about What Are the Advantages of Dry Type fish feed making machine?

Low equipment procurement cost: No complex supporting facilities required. The core design advantage of dry fish feed production equipment is "no additional water supply," eliminating the need for auxiliary equipment such as steam boilers, water supply devices, and dryers. The procurement cost of a single unit is only 50,000-200,000 yuan (small to medium capacity models), far lower than the 500,000-5,000,000 yuan of a complete wet extrusion machine production line. For example, a dry extruder with an hourly output of 150 kg costs approximately 80,000-100,000 yuan and can directly achieve integrated production from raw materials to finished products; while a wet extruder with the same capacity costs over 300,000 yuan for the core equipment alone, plus supporting steam and drying equipment, resulting in a total investment exceeding 800,000 yuan. For family farmers, small fish farms, or feed processing startups with limited budgets, the low procurement cost of dry extruders can significantly reduce start-up and production risks, enabling rapid profitability.

Low operating energy consumption cost: Simplified energy consumption structure. The dry fish feed pellet extruder machine's operating energy consumption comes solely from the drive motor, eliminating the need for steam and large amounts of water. The energy cost per ton of feed produced is approximately 150-200 yuan, more than 50% lower than that of a wet extruder. Dry extruders rely on the frictional heat (120-160℃) generated by the high-speed rotation of the screw to puff the raw material, requiring no external heating devices. The motor power is typically 15-55kW. Based on an industrial electricity price of 1 yuan/kWh, a dry-type floating fish feed pellet making machine with a production capacity of 100kg per hour consumes only 15 kWh per hour, resulting in an energy cost of 150 yuan per ton of feed produced. In contrast, wet extruders require the energy of the motor, steam boiler, and dryer simultaneously, leading to a comprehensive energy cost of 300-600 yuan per ton of feed produced, in addition to additional water and steam fuel costs. Over the long term, the energy cost advantage of dry extruders can save users significant funds.

Maintenance costs are controllable: parts wear out slowly and are easy to replace. Dry-type fish feed pellet processing machines have a simple structure, and the working environment of their core components (screw, extrusion chamber, and die) is relatively stable, resulting in slower wear compared to wet extruders (which operate in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, leading to faster corrosion and wear). Their annual maintenance costs are only 5%-8% of the equipment purchase cost. Core components such as the screw have a lifespan of 1500-2000 hours, and the wear-resistant bushings in the extrusion chamber only need to be replaced every 1000 hours. The replacement process is simple and requires no specialized technical team. For example, a dry extruder with a capacity of 150kg per hour has an annual maintenance cost of approximately 4000-8000 yuan; while a wet extruder with the same capacity has an annual maintenance cost as high as 30,000-50,000 yuan, and replacing core components is complex, requiring extended downtime and impacting production efficiency.
