MIKIM single screw floating fish feed pellet machine sold to France test
Leave a message
1. Project Overview
This case documents the factory testing process of a MIKIM single screw floating fish food pellet maker machine before shipment to France.
Client Requirements:
- Capacity: 200–300 kg/h
- Pellet size: 2–4 mm (for tilapia & carp)
- Floating rate: ≥ 90%
Stable operation for small commercial aquaculture
2. Why European Clients Focus on Testing
Clients from France and EU markets typically prioritize:
Consistent pellet quality (uniform size, smooth surface)
High floating rate (feed utilization efficiency)
Machine stability (long continuous working hours)
Energy consumption control
Testing is not optional-it's a pre-shipment verification standard.
3. Testing Process
Raw Material Simulation
- We used a common European-style formula:
- Corn flour + soybean meal + fish meal
- Moisture controlled at 22%–28%
Extrusion Testing
- Temperature range: 130–170°C
- Screw speed adjusted for optimal puffing
- Die mold tested for 2mm and 4mm pellets
Drying & Floating Verification
- Final moisture: 8%–10%
- Floating test: pellets remained on water surface for over 12 hours
Continuous Operation Test
- 3-hour non-stop running
- No blockage, stable current, smooth discharge
4. Key Testing Results
Machine Type: single screw fish feed processing machine
Final Output: 260 kg/h
Floating Rate: 92%
Pellet Diameter: 2mm / 4mm adjustable
Condition: Stable, no abnormal vibration
5. Problems Identified & Optimization
During initial testing:
Slight uneven puffing observed
Solution:
Adjusted moisture ratio
Optimized barrel temperature zones
Final result: Uniform expansion and improved floating stability
6. Why single screw floating fish feed machine Is Chosen
For this France client, a single screw design was selected because:
Lower investment cost vs twin screw
Easier operation and maintenance
Suitable for small to medium feed plants
Stable for standard fish feed production
7. What the Client Receives Before Shipment
Real testing video (full production process)
Finished feed samples
Machine parameter report
Operation guidance support
8. How to Know If This Machine Fits Your Project
This Single-Screw fish food maker machine is suitable if you need:
Capacity: 100–500 kg/h
Floating fish feed production
Budget-friendly solution
Easy installation and operation
9. Conclusion: Tested Machine = Lower Investment Risk
A machine tested with real materials is not just equipment-it's a verified production solution.
For international buyers, especially in Europe, this step ensures compliance, stability, and predictable output.
