What is the pellet dies?
Pellet dies are specialized components used in pellet mills, typically in the feed, biomass, and other processing industries. They are essential for shaping and forming the feed material into uniform pellets through a pellet mill. The pellet dies have the below functions:
1. Forming Pellets
The primary function is to compress and shape the feed material into pellets by forcing it through the holes in the die.
2. Controlling Pellet Quality
The design of the die affects the density, size, and durability of the pellets produced, which are crucial for nutritional value and feed performance.
3. Facilitating Uniformity
Consistent hole sizes and spacing in the die ensure that all pellets are uniform in shape and size, which is important for feed efficiency and digestibility.
4. Enhancing Feed Processing:
Properly designed pellet dies can improve the overall efficiency of the pelleting process, reducing energy consumption and wear on the equipment
The pattern of the holes:
The hole's pattern will be designed based on the feed ingredients, particle size, PDI, and particle hardness.There are several types of holes, the most common structures of die holes are straight holes, release stepped holes, external conical holes, internal conical holes, etc. Different die-hole structures are suitable for the different raw materials and feed formulas for pelleting.
Compression ratio:
Generally, the higher the compression ratio the denser the finished pellets, but it does not mean the better pellet. The compression ratio should be calculated based on raw materials for pellets and types of feed, buyers can customize dies with different hole diameters and compression ratios according to the situations and requirements.
