How It Works

The Production Workflow — Step by Step

From raw material reception to bagged species-specific compound feed — a fully integrated 6-stage process for poultry, cattle, fish and pet food production.

📥

Receiving & Cleaning

Raw materials (maize, soya cake, fishmeal, premix) received via bulk hopper or bag tip, cleaned with magnets, sieves & aspirators

⚙️

Grinding (Hammer Mill)

Hammer mills reduce raw materials to target particle size (mesh size depends on species) for uniform mixing and pellet quality

🌪️

Batch Mixing

Multi-ingredient horizontal/double-paddle mixer blends 6–20 ingredients to homogeneous mix per recipe (PLC-controlled batching)

💧

Conditioning

Steam conditioner heats and moisturises mash to ~75–85°C — improves digestibility, gelatinises starches and binds the pellet

🔄

Pelleting / Extruding

Ring-die pellet press (poultry/cattle/sinking fish) OR twin-screw extruder (floating fish, pet food) shapes the feed to spec

📦

Cooling, Sieving & Packing

Counter-flow cooler reduces moisture & temperature; rotary sifter removes fines; auto bagging in 25 kg / 50 kg / 1 ton bulk

Technical Overview

Plant Specifications & Engineering Details

What's Included in a Vezora Feed Plant

Our turnkey package covers the complete feed mill — from raw material reception to bagged finished feed. We supply both pellet plants (poultry, cattle, sinking fish) and extruder plants (floating fish, pet food, aquafeed).

The plant is designed around your recipe library — number of ingredients, batch size, species mix and bag formats — with PLC recipe control and full traceability from intake to finished bag.

  • 📥Bulk hopper, bag tip station & magnet/sieve cleaning
  • ⚙️Hammer mill with screen change for fine/coarse grind
  • 🌪️Horizontal paddle mixer (250 kg – 4 ton batch)
  • 💧Steam conditioner with temp & moisture control
  • 🔄Ring-die pellet press 2–10 mm OR twin-screw extruder
  • ❄️Counter-flow pellet cooler + rotary sifter
  • Main MCC, PLC + HMI recipe control system
  • 📦Auto bagging: 25 kg / 50 kg / 1 ton bulk bag

Key Features & Benefits

Why Vezora Plants Lead the African Market

🌍

Designed for African Recipes

Recipes built around locally available raw materials — maize, sorghum, cassava, soya cake, palm kernel cake, fishmeal — with mineral & vitamin premix integration.

🐟

Floating Fish Feed Capability

Twin-screw extruder produces high-density floating fish feed (tilapia, catfish) with ≥12-hour float retention — essential for African aquaculture profitability.

🍳

Multi-Species Flexibility

Single plant produces poultry starter/grower/finisher, layer, broiler, cattle, dairy, sinking fish, floating fish and pig feed — recipe-switched on PLC.

PLC Recipe Control

Full PLC + HMI recipe library with batching scales, micro-ingredient dosing and full traceability — meeting feed safety, mill audit and export requirements.

🔥

Steam Conditioning

Steam-conditioned pellet press improves starch gelatinisation, ingredient digestibility and pellet hardness — directly improving FCR (Feed Conversion Ratio).

🔧

Simple Maintenance

Wear parts (dies, rolls, hammers, screens) standardised and stocked locally through Vezora Spare Parts. AMC ensures planned maintenance & minimised downtime.
