Counter-flow Cooler for Animal Feed Pellet Line
Counter-flow Cooler for Animal Feed Pellet Line is an SKLN series cooling solution designed to remove excess heat and moisture after pelletizing, conditioning or extrusion. It is suitable for pelleted feeds, expanded feeds, extruded feeds and flake feeds, helping improve storage stability, reduce fungus risk and deliver more uniform cooling with smooth material discharge.
- Simple Structure
- Affordable Solution
- Uniform Cooling
- Smooth Material Flowing
- Less Residue
- Convenient Operation
Description
Cooling is an important process after conditioning and pelletizing because heat and moisture are added during production, while the pellets must reach a more suitable condition for storage and transport. This counter-flow cooler is designed to remove extra heat and moisture from finished pellets so the product can achieve better storage life and become safer against fungus risk.
What this machine is designed for
- Cooling various kinds of pellets such as pelleted feed, expanded feeds, extruded feeds and flake feeds.
- Reducing the excess heat and moisture produced during conditioning, pelletizing and extrusion.
- Supporting animal feed pellet lines that require smoother discharge, more uniform cooling and low breakage.
- Helping finished granular materials reach a more practical temperature for storage, conveying and packing.
Detailed machine advantages
- SKLN series counter-flow feed cooler is suitable for cooling pelleted feed, expanded feeds, extruded feeds and flake feeds.
- The machine is structurally arranged vertically with a simple and neat appearance.
- Based on advanced counter-flow cooling principle, the reciprocating grate type discharging device helps achieve smooth material flowing and uniform discharging.
- The octagon cooling bin helps eliminate dead cooling corners and improves the cooling treatment of materials.
- The novel rotary spreader supports more uniform and complete cooling while helping reduce breakage and power consumption.
- Pressure-relief plates above the discharging device help reduce the working load, lower distortion risk and extend service life of parts.
Application scenarios
Pelleted Feed
Suitable for cooling standard feed pellets after pelletizing so the product reaches a safer storage condition.
Expanded Feed
Applicable for expanded feed products that leave the process with extra heat and moisture.
Extruded Feed
Works for extruded animal feed where effective post-process cooling is important for product quality.
Flake Feed
Also suitable for flake feed and granular finished materials that need more complete cooling treatment.
Practical operation benefits
- Cooling removes excess heat and moisture introduced during processing.
- The finished product becomes more suitable for storage and less vulnerable to fungus risk.
- Uniform discharge and reduced breakage help improve product handling quality.
- The machine is designed for convenient operation and practical integration into animal feed pellet production lines.
