I. Daily Cleaning: Mandatory After Each Production Run

The focus of daily cleaning is to remove residual raw materials from the surface, feed inlet, die head, and discharge outlet of the Small Fish Feed Extruder Machine to prevent powder hardening. This only takes 5–10 minutes: unplug the power, cool the equipment, then clean the die head, brush off any residue from the screw surface, and wipe the machine body. Daily cleaning keeps the equipment basically clean, prevents raw material buildup, and is the simplest yet most important maintenance step, suitable for all users.

II. Deep Cleaning: Frequency Determined Based on Usage

Deep cleaning requires disassembling the small fish feed pellet making machine parts and thoroughly cleaning the interior. The frequency depends on usage:
* Daily Use: Deep cleaning every 3–5 days;
* Every Other Day Use: Deep cleaning every 1–2 weeks;
* Occasional Use: Deep cleaning after each use.

Deep cleaning includes disassembling the screw, barrel, die head, and cutter to thoroughly remove any clumps or residue and inspect for wear on parts. The more standardized the deep cleaning process, the more stable the equipment, and the better the feed floating effect.

III. Raw Material Type Affects Cleaning Frequency

Different raw material formulations require adjustments to the cleaning frequency of the small cat food making machine. When using high-starch, high-protein raw materials, which are more prone to gelatinization and adhesion, the cleaning frequency should be appropriately increased. When using more coarse fiber raw materials such as wheat bran and rice bran, which leave relatively less residue, cleaning can be performed at the standard frequency. If slower discharge, uneven particle size, or decreased buoyancy is observed, immediate and earlier cleaning is necessary.
