The Pelletizing of Pig Feed Pellets

[textekpri]

The core step in producing pig feed pellets is pelletizing. The pellets' quality is greatly affected by temperature control and moisture conditioning during the pelletizing process. Commonly, 16% to 17% moisture content is the best for pellet processing. The raw materials should be cooled to 82 degrees Celsius for gelatinization. The pelletizing process is critical for producing high quality pig feed pellets. Different pig growth stages have different requirements for pig feed pellet sizes. Pellets with a diameter of 3/32 inches are recommended. They are suitable for suckling pigs. However, pellets of a size of 5/32 inch will work. The best gains in growing and finishing pigs are achieved with pellets.
