Core Insights

Location: Iraq (Shipping to Umm Qasr Port).
Equipment Profile: 150–200 kg/h Dry Type single screw fish feed making machine + 50 kg/batch Mixer + 200 kg/h Dryer.
Performance Verification: Passed 12-hour floating test and local material (wheat/maize) trial run.
Reliability: Optimized for High-Temperature climates and Generator-powered operation.

1. Project Scope & Equipment Specifications

This project was customized for an Iraqi client requiring a compact yet professional production line. The configuration ensures a seamless transition between mixing, extruding, and drying.

1. High-Efficiency Mixer (50 kg/batch )

Function: Rapidly blends powders, grains, and nutritional additives.
Key Advantage: Ensures a homogenous mash, which is critical for the stability of the final pellet and consistent nutritional value.

2. Dry Type single screw floating fish feed making machine (150–200 kg/h )

Technology: Single-screw extrusion with precise temperature control.
Output: Produces high-quality floating feed (stays buoyant for 12+ hours).
Customization: Die plates provided for multiple pellet sizes (e.g., 2mm, 4mm, 6mm) to accommodate different fish growth stages.

3. Industrial Feed Dryer (200 kg/h )

Purpose: Reduces moisture content from ~20% down to under 10% post-extrusion.
Benefit: Prevents mold growth and extends the shelf life of the feed for storage in Iraq's arid climate.

2. Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT): Performance & Floating Test

Before dispatching Order , our engineers conducted a rigorous 4-hour continuous production test to ensure stability.

1. The 12-Hour Floating Test

The Result: 99.5% of the pellets remained on the water surface for over 12 hours.
Benefit for Iraq Farmers: This allows for better monitoring of Tilapia and Carp feeding habits, preventing waste and keeping pond water cleaner in the hot Iraqi climate.

2. Local Material Adaptability Test

Using a blend of wheat bran, maize, and fish meal (common in Iraq), the extruder maintained a steady output of 180kg/h with a smooth surface finish on the 4mm pellets.

Live factory testing: 4mm floating fish feed pellets produced by the 150-200kg/h extruder, demonstrating 100% buoyancy for 12+ hours.

3. Engineering for the Middle Eastern Environment

Heat Insulation: The 200 kg/h dryer features reinforced insulation to maintain internal temperature efficiency even when external ambient temperatures exceed 45°C.
Power Compatibility: The control system is designed to handle the start-up currents typical of Industrial Diesel Generators, common in Iraqi agricultural zones.
Customs Documentation: We provided the customer with full Certificate of Origin and compliant documentation for smooth clearance at the Basra/Umm Qasr ports.

4. Packaging and Shipping

Package the order securely and ship it to the customer's designated delivery address.

FAQ:

Q1: Can I use this Dry Type single screw floating fish food maker machine to make feed for Tilapia and Common Carp?
A: Yes. These are the two most common species in Iraq. We provide specific die plates (2.5mm to 6mm) and formulas tailored for both.

Q2: Does the Dry Type single screw floating fish feed pellet making machine come with a warranty for the motors?
A: Yes, all main motors carry a 1-year warranty. For Iraq orders, we use high-grade copper-core motors that are more resistant to heat-induced wear.

Q3: Is it easy to get spare parts in Iraq?
A: Every order includes a "First-Year Maintenance Kit" (Screw, Sleeve, Heating Rings). For additional parts, we offer fast air-express shipping to Iraq via DHL/FedEx.

Q4: How do I handle the customs clearance in Umm Qasr?
A: Our logistics team provides the specific "Certificate of Origin" and "Commercial Invoice" required by Iraqi authorities. We have successful experience shipping to the Basra region.

Q5: Can I visit the factory to see my machine tested?
A: You are welcome to visit! If you cannot travel, we provide live video testing and high-definition recordings of the floating test (as we did for this Order ) before shipment.
