RICHI Pellet Production Line Solution
RICHI provides single pellet mill, complete pellet production line, and full plant construction. Covering the fields of animal feed, biomass, organic fertilizer, and aquatic product pellets. We help you pellet efficiently and start production fast.
Full-Range Pellet Solution
The pellet line for sale covers five areas: animal nutrition, green energy, agricultural recycling, aquaculture breeding, and special pellet processing. With deep technical experience and real project know-how, we offer custom services from process design to equipment delivery. We help you produce efficiently and upgrade your operation.
Animal Feed Production Line
This line serves poultry, livestock, and pets. It covers the whole process from raw material intake to pellet packaging. The line turns raw materials into high-quality, nutritious pellets through several stages.
We equip the line with a PLC system and real-time monitoring. This gives you high automation and accurate production data. The modular design supports fast product changeovers and recipe updates. The whole line is easy to clean. Key equipment uses stainless steel to keep the pellets clean and safe.
Aqua Feed Production Line
In aqua feed production, you often struggle to balance water stability, nutrient retention, and changeover flexibility. This is a daily challenge for many feed mills.
Our aqua feed pellets line solves it step by step. A double-shaft differential conditioner increases gelatinization for better water stability. A vacuum coater locks in nutrients precisely. Stainless steel, anti-residue design and pneumatic packing reduce cleaning time during changeovers. These three steps make “balance” possible.
Biomass Pellet Production Line
Turn agricultural waste like straw and wood chips into clean fuel with high combustion efficiency. You get environmental benefits and economic returns.
Anti-bridge variable-frequency feeding and forced feeding ensure a steady material flow. Precise die-to-roller gap adjustment supports good pellet forming. The line has an air cooling system and gear drive. It runs stably even in tough conditions, reducing maintenance costs and downtime risks from the start.
Organic Fertilizer Pellet Line
Organic fertilizer raw materials are common waste materials in daily life. They can create extra income and protect the environment.
Our organic fertilizer line has a simple design and low investment cost. The pelleting rate exceeds 90%. The final pellets have no bad smell and are full and uniform. They work well for grain fields, flower gardens, orchards, and more. Whether you run a farm with manure to handle or a fertilizer plant expanding your products, our line is a practical and efficient choice.
Special Pellet Production Line
We customize pellets for different industries, such as cat litter and paper pellets. We focus on special shapes, adapting to various material properties, and high-precision additive dosing.
The line uses interchangeable dies (including special-shaped holes), micro weighing and spraying, and dust-proof drying. These solve problems like difficult forming due to different material properties, tough requirements on pellet strength and disintegration speed.
Customizable Pellet Production Line
Choosing the right equipment is the first step to efficient production. RICHI customizes diverse solutions based on your processing needs.
Animal Feed Line
We optimize pellet hardness and fine rate to improve animal feeding efficiency and digestion. Capacity covers 1 to 100 t/h.
Aqua Feed Line
Full stainless steel prevents rust and corrosion. Pellets stay stable in water for a long time without breaking. Capacity covers 0.5 to 40 t/h.
Biomass Pellet Line
For high-fiber materials, we use a forced feeder and a high-wear-resistant die. This strengthens forming and produces high-density pellets easily.
Wood Pellet Line
Specializing in processing various wood materials, such as logs, wood chips, and sawdust, with customized production capacity up to 50 t/h. The following is a reference for selection of common standard production capacity segments.
Organic Fertilizer Pellet Line
Equipped with an anti-stick mold and dehydration and deodorization process, it can easily solve the granulation problems of high-humidity and high-viscosity materials, and the production capacity covers 1-60 t/h.
Special Pellet Line
It meets the non-standard customization needs of various industries and has a huge production capacity span. For example, the cat litter pelleting line can reach 0.3-60 t/h.
Pellet Production Process
RICHI pellet production lines have a complete and standard production architecture. Each piece of equipment works together to turn raw materials into high-quality pellets.
Raw Material Preparation
Preprocess the raw materials to make them suitable for granulation.
The pre-treatment section includes cleaning, screening, crushing, and mixing. For an organic fertilizer line, raw materials also go through fermentation and dewatering first. Aqua feed requires ultra-fine grinding.
Impurities are removed. Particle size is ground to the right fineness. All ingredients are mixed evenly. The result is a uniform, free-flowing powder with consistent physical and chemical properties – ready for pelleting.
Pelleting
Press powdery materials into high-density, uniformly shaped particles.
The powder enters a pellet mill or extruder. Steam conditioning and mechanical pressing turn it into a cylindrical strip. A cutter then cuts it into pellets of the required length. Changing die hole diameter and compression ratio lets you produce pellets of different sizes, typically 1–12 mm in diameter.
Biomass pellet lines need a forced feeder to prevent light materials like wood chips or straw from bridging. Special lines can use special-shaped dies to make round, flake, or other shapes.
Finished Pellet Processing
Post-process the freshly made pellets to improve quality and storage.
Post-treatment includes cooling, screening, coating, and packaging. Pellets are cooled to lower temperature and moisture. Then a screener removes fines and broken pieces. If needed, we spray a layer of oil or functional coating. Aqua feed must be coated after pelleting because it needs high oil content. Organic fertilizer pellets require an extra low-temperature drying step to prevent mold.
The final pellets are stable and suitable for storage. They can go directly to farms or the market.
Auxiliary Processes
These connect each section and keep the pellet production line running continuously and stably.
Auxiliary systems include conveyors (bucket elevators, drag chain conveyors), dust collectors, control systems, and steam boilers. They move materials smoothly between equipment, control dust, and supply heat and power. Large lines also have automatic palletizers and a central PLC control system. One person can operate the whole line.
Global Case Studies
Every pellet processing line we deliver is a custom solution based on real-world conditions. For each project, we consider local climate, raw material properties, and farming habits. RICHI always starts with your actual situation and designs a custom solution.
Animal Feed Plant Project in Nigeria
The customer’s existing pellet production line had frequent crusher blockages and a serious capacity bottleneck. We dispatched engineers to the site as soon as possible. After investigation, it was confirmed that the root cause of the fault was the high moisture content of the raw corn, mismatched screen aperture and too small fan configuration.
We re-planned the process plan, equipped customers with a 22kW hammer crusher, a 1-ton mixer and an SZLH320 granulator, and optimized the transportation pipeline. This professional service model of “diagnosing the problem first, then providing solutions” has won high recognition and trust from customers.
Shrimp Feed Line in Ecuador
In aqua feed, pellet water stability and sinking/floating ratio are key to product quality. The customer had a problem with pellets disintegrating in water quickly. Our team studied their farming details: shrimp size, pond depth, and water exchange frequency.
Based on detailed data support, we customized a comprehensive solution of “twin-screw expansion + vacuum post-spraying” for it, and precisely calibrated the tempering temperature, screw speed and die hole aspect ratio. The resulting shrimp feed maintains excellent stability in the water and perfectly meets the actual farming needs of customers.
Wood Pellet Line in Iceland
The air humidity in Iceland is high, making it difficult to dry wood chips naturally. We innovatively added a forced air drying bin and an online moisture monitoring system to the standard process flow, and equipped the granulator with a dual forced feeding device. In addition, considering that the equipment needs to be deployed in coastal areas for a long time, we have carried out professional anti-salt spray and anti-corrosion treatment on the entire machine.
After two harsh winters, the pellet production line still maintains a stable operation record of zero downtime.
Chicken Manure Organic Fertilizer Line in Australia
For this first cooperation with an Australian chicken farm, we took a practical approach. We suggested the customer first try a small-scale deodorizing fermentation tank to solve the smell problem. After that worked and trust was built, we started the full pelletizing line.
In order to maximize customers’ return on investment, we have streamlined the equipment configuration and only provide core equipment such as fermentation tanks, trommel screens, granulators and coolers, and canceled the automatic packaging module. The project not only solves the pollution problem but also creates a new source of income.

Global Customer Testimonials
Good equipment proves itself. Good service wins trust. See what our overseas partners say about working with us.
In the US, equipment performance and energy data must be honest. We compared several domestic suppliers and chose RICHI – mature technology and real energy data. Now this pellet production line not only makes cattle feed but also sheep and chicken feed just by changing the die. One line covers three feed types.
James Warren
Operations director, a large US pastoral group, North America
RICHI engineers came to our farm on Luzon Island and measured everything. They gave us a complete 5 t/h floating fish feed line solution. From corn and cassava to fish meal and soybean meal, local ingredients and imported additives mix flexibly. The pellets stay afloat for two hours without breaking. Now we use the feed ourselves and sell to nearby farms.
Ramon Santos
Head of an aqua feed plant in the Philippines, Asia
The equipment we used before always had problems with incomplete fermentation and low pelletizing rate. This time, RICHI designed a 200,000 t/y organic fertilizer pellet line. From fermentation tanks to extrusion, the whole process controls odor, temperature, and sticking. The pellets are uniform and firm and passed EU organic certification.
Mehmet Yılmaz
General Manager of an agricultural technology company in Turkey, Europe
We were new to the biomass pellet business with a limited budget but didn’t want to compromise on quality. RICHI helped us set up a 2–2.5 t/h wood pellet production line. Hardwood raw materials wear out dies quickly. They recommended the MZLH678 heavy-duty pellet mill. More reassuring: the electrical system fully complies with Australian and New Zealand standards. Every machine has an emergency stop and an independent power switch.

Buyer’s Guide & Support Center
Before starting your pellet production line price project, you may want to know:
How do I choose the right pellet line for me?
→
It mainly depends on your raw materials and target customers. If your main materials are grains and soybean meal, we suggest a livestock feed line. If you have wood chips and straw, a biomass pellet line fits better. Contact us with your details, and our engineers will give professional advice.
Which pellet line gives the fastest ROI?
→
It depends on market and raw materials. Generally, biomass pellet lines pay back faster (6–18 months). Animal feed lines give stable returns but take longer (12–30 months). We can do a free ROI calculation for you.
How do your pellet machines compare with European or American brands? Are they good value?
→
Key components come from top international brands: Siemens motors, SKF bearings, and dies that match advanced global standards. The pellet production line price is very competitive, and its overall performance meets world-class standards.
Are equipment common across different pellet lines? Can I reuse them if I switch product types?
→
Yes, some equipment is common. But core machines differ in process requirements. With modifications, you can reuse them. We can design your system with changeover interfaces ready. You can also check the product pages for different lines to compare core equipment.
Can I buy just one chicken feed pellet mill to start with and expand to a full pellet production line later?
→
Yes. We support phased investment. You can buy the core pellet mill first, then add screening, cooling, and packing equipment later as needed. See the product pages for equipment lists and phased investment options.
I haven’t decided which line to choose. Can you help me analyze?
→
Of course. Please fill out the form with as much detail as possible about raw materials, expected capacity, etc. Our engineers will give you an initial design within 24 hours.
