oil cakes has been widely used as animal feed, crop and plant fertilizer and food additives

Oil cakes, also known as oil meal, refer to the residue of oil seeds from which vegetable oil is extracted or expelled.There are a variety of common oil cakes such as Soybean oil cake, peanut oil cake, sesame oil cake, palm oil cake, rapeseed oil cake, olive oil cake, etc.Oil cakes are rich in fat, protein and microelements that body needs.It has been widely used as animal feed, crop and plant fertilizer and food additives.Processing feed pellets with oil cake can achieve a considerable cost-saving for many feeders and poultry plant.

Oil Cake Feed Pellets Processing
Oil cakes pelletizing process is similar to grain crops feed pellets production.The major steps includes oil cakes crushing, mixing,pelletizing and cooling, packing. Based on your special requirement and budget,our oil cake feed pellet machines which include flat die pellet mill and ring die pellet mill are both available.The high temperature during feed pelletizing process can kill some toxic substances and make oil cake pellets assured and nutritional feed.

Advantages of Oil Cake Feed Pellets

1.No anti-nutritional substance exists which adversely affect the animals in reproduction and other body organs like kidney, liver etc.
2.Low cost investment, high profit return and eco-friendly.
3.The oil has mostly unsaturated fatty acid that will help for the early pregnancy of the animals.
4.Higher contain of oil and fat will provide the full nutritions to the animals.
5.Convenient to transport and store compared to the oil cake waste.
6.Improve the animal health and resistant power against the diseases.

Both animal fats and plant oils can be added in feed pellets and the addition of animal fats and plant oils

What is Fat/Oil Coating for Animal Feed?
Both animal fats and plant oils can be added in feed pellets and the addition of animal fats and plant oils in animal feed with proper amount is an effective method to improve the feed quality. And the process of adding fats/oils can be set before pelletizing or after pelletizing. The volume of addition before pelletizing should not be more than 3% of the production, or it will lead pellets of loose character, and this kind of fat/oil adding is not so working for extruded feed pellets production, but it has low-level technical demand for the process equipment. The maximum fats/oils adding volume can be 8% after pelletizing, which is the so-called fat/oil coating, improving the productivity without affecting the solidness of pellets, working well for producing extruded feed, and having high-level standard of the equipment.

Major Factors Affecting Fat/Oil Coating Quality
1.Temperature: low temperature of fat/oil for coating will reduce fat/oil viscosity, cause fat/oil globules, affect fat/oil fluidity and atomization effect, then result in uneven coating.
2.Spray nozzle: spray nozzle structure and mounting position have a direct effect on fat/oil atomization result and coating evenness.
3.Feed pellet size and flow direction: small-sized and high-density feed pellets with even eddy motion can get uniform fat/oil coating and absorption.
4.Feed pellet solidness: the feed pellet without high solidness will bring about fat/oil layer peeling off and feed powder, causing nutrients wastage.
5.Control system: the coating control system should be perfect and monitored properly to avoid scrap feed that is caused by oil leak and flow direction change.
Effective Fat/Oil Coating Technology and Equipment
Post pellet liquid application (PPLA) technology has been widely used in feed liquid coating process, including fat/oil coating, since early 1980s. Because liquid coating after animal feed pelletization prevents the heat-sensitive components in feed from the damage of thermal processing facilities, such as feed pelletizer, feed extruder, etc., thus ensuring feed quality and reducing feed cost.
In terms of working principle, fat/oil coating equipment has vacuum infusion coater, spraying atomization coater and centrifugal atomization coating machine, these three types.
