Weighing
Ingredient silos and hopper
scales
Hopper scales for weighing of
individual constituents in
formula mixtures. Three
different types of hopper scales
pending on the functunality.
The type VBE/EEB single where
charges are closed/weighed out
via sequence control of one or
more dosing screws. When
weighing is finshed the outlet
slide opents for emptying. The
type VBE/EEK single where
charges are closed/weighed our
via sequence control of dosing
screws, while the chain
conveyor is stopped. The chain
conveyor starts upon finished
weighing and empties the bin.
The type VBE/EEB double
where charges are
closed/weighed our via
swquence control of dosing
screws. The pneumatically
operated bottom slide opens
upon finished weighing to
empty the charge into bottom
bin. A new charge can be
weighed simultaneously with
emptying of the bottom bin.
Live bin
Loss-in-weight weigher and pre-mixing of feed ingredients prior to
grinding to ensure optimum hammer mill performance and
homogeneous particle size distribution. Good homogenizing ability.
materials are lifted upwards by the central live bin screw.
Bulk intake system with aspiration filter

3. Bulk intake hopper and conveying system with filter, type DFE.

toughest of applications, ANDRITZ FEED & BIOFUEL hammermills
stand up to the challenge, year after year.
The Optimill series
The optimill series consists of hammer mills for raw material
grinding of normal to coarse-structured feed products, such as
cattle, pig and poultry feeds. The Optimill series has grinding
chamber diameters of 1100 mm and widths from 500 mm to 1200
mm. The operating speed is 1500/1800 rpm.
The Multimill series
The Multimill series consists of fine grinding hammer mills for high-
capacity production of fine-ground materials. The Multimill series has
grinding chamber diameters of 650 mm and widths from 300 mm to
1400 mm. The operating speed is 3000/3600 rpm.
Aspiration filters
Fully automatic, continuously operating bag filters cleaned by
compressed air. A variety of filters support any need for process air
filtration throughout the entire pelleting plant.
Conditioning and Expanding

4. CM series for for pre-
conditioning with addition of
liquids and steam, providing
optimum mixing and retention
time. Dual conditioning for
perfect mixing-in of liquids and
extended conditioning time as
well as availability of CRT first-
in-first-out solutions.
Conditioning helps optimise
the pellet quality
The correct conditioning of a
feed compound is necessary in
order to obtain a good pellet
quality and an effective
utilization of the pelleting or
extrusion installation.
Conditioning improves
compressibility and binding properties of feed mixtures by using:
Heat - Moisture - Time
The pellet mill pre-conditioner is an important part of the pelleting
process providing:
 Optimal pellet quality
 High capacity
 Efficient steam and liquid addition
 Efficient energy exploitation
 Long lifetimes for dies and press rollers
Expanding
The ANDRITZ FEED & BIOFUEL feed expander is used for high-
temperature conditioning of feed mixtures, conditioning and
stabilisation of mixture before pelleting and thermal treatment and
crumbling of feed mixtures and individual raw materials.
An efficient solution for securing:
 Lower percentage of fines
 Better physical pellet quality
 Increased pellet mill capacity
 Increased liquid addition
 Better possibilities of raw material composition with less
consideration for binding properties of raw materials results
in low cost formulating
 Improved activation of the natural binding properties of raw
materials
 Reduction/elimination of bacteria
 Reduction of growth-inhibiting substances
 Better digestibility of the feed compound
Pelleting

5. Pellet mill design with focus on
high performance, reliability,
feed hygiene, ease of
maintenance, controllabiliry
and low energy consumption.
Availibility of complete range of
belt-driven and gear-driven
models, matching any possible

Cooling

6. Crumbling
Sifting and Coating
Cooler
Vertical coolers in several
models matching the exact
types of feed from any feed
mill.
Crumbler
Crumbling is done after
pelleting and prior to coating
and for controlled particle size
reduction with optinal
automatic feeding and with
roll adjustment.

7. Control and Automation
Automation systems are available as basic control systems or as
fully automatic systems for control of each process machine or
complete process lines. The system ensures cost-effective
processing and consistent feed quality. The plant design with
integrated automation solutions provides full traceability of
ingredients and process parameters.
ANDRITZ FEED & BIOFUEL supplies computer based control systems
for all key processes in pelleting and extrusion production lines.
The modularly designed control systems range from basic control of
operational functions to advanced computerized control of entire
process lines incl. weigher, grinder, mixer, extruder, dryer or feed
expander, pellet mill, cooler and coater.
ANDRITZ FEED & BIOFUEL control (TM) types communicate through
Ethernet between PC AS32TM Scada and PLC/Microprocessor:
 ECMS, ECOS Extruder
 ECS1.1, Extruder Expansion
 DCMS, Dryer
 VCMS, Vacuum coater
 CCMS, Cooler
 MPPC, MFPC, Pellet mill
 P-ASS, PE-ASS, Pellet mill/Expander
Ethernet is world wide the most common type of network for
industrial computer controls and administration EDB systems - easy
to connect with ANDRITZ FEED & BIOFUEL's control systms for a
total integration, which gives the following advantages:
 Total traceability from administration to finished product
 Superior management of production parameters
 Online remote service/supervision from Andritz Feed &
Sifting
The sifting will remove fines in
order to end up with uniform
crumbles and pellets
Coating
The Micro Fluid System is
used for addition of liquid
micro ingredients like e.g.
enzymes, amino acids,
vitamines, aromatics, bacteria
cultures and oils after cooling
of the product. Adding liquids
after cooling reduces the
number of formular changes
and faciliates production of
special products specified by
customers.
