We offer a fat coating system that can enhance the energy and palatability of feed. Dalein Agriplan provides a batching fat coating system that consists of an inlet hopper that flows into a paddle mixer on load cells that can mix up to 20t/h. The fat coated product is then dispatched into a holding bin.

Fat is sprayed onto the pellets by a specially designed manifold. By accurately weighing the bulk to the specified weight the precise percentage of oil can then be used to coat the pellets with each batch.

Adding steam to the production process for animal feeds improves the compressibility (an increase in the press capacity of 20% is no exception) and the condition of the laying mash, among other things. Steam inactivates micro-organisms while the sensory properties (including aroma, taste and texture) of the product mix are retained.

For the production of high-quality (dry) steam – the quality is determined by pressure and temperature – PTN supplies steam lines and steam injection systems on mixers, presses, expanders and compactors.

Characteristic of the injection systems is the volume-increasing drainage vessel after the reducing unit in which a steam flash, and thus superheated dry steam, is generated.

The compact systems are available with a capacity of 150 - 2.500 kg/hr, are easy to install and use relatively little energy.

Storage of grain and seed products requires the utmost care and control at the same time. Many of the world's crops are lost in storage, due to the uncontrollable development of heat and moisture. Therefore, monitoring and controlling of temperatures are of vital importance in modern grain handling. No silo project is too big or too small for Dalein Agriplan – whether the solution applies to a large or small, square or round silo solution. At Dalein Agriplan we provide 2 types of silos for your convenience:

• Round silos Round silos are suitable for large storage capacities. Dalein Agriplan provides the option of round silos manufactured by our trustworthy suppliers. The capacity of the largest round silo goes up to 4000 tons.

• Square silos Square silos are ideal for the use of inside batching and holding purposes. Square silos can be used in dual row placement, with capacities of 6 - 15 tons. For bulk materials, square is the right shape for maximum capacity. Square silos should be cladded if used outside for the overload bridge out-loading system.

Dalein Agriplan's expertise in the pelleting process focuses on creating a pellet that is durable and tough enough to resist breakage during handling. Our pelleting press enables companies to pellet a wide variety of different raw materials. Pellet machines can be fitted with a twin or single conditioner with a recursion time barrel.

The pelleting process begins with a conditioning process where steam is homogeneously mixed with the ingredients at a temperature of up to 75°C. A knife system systematically cuts the pelletized product from the die and the still warm pellets proceed onwards for cooling.

Optimum meal preparation is essential for maximum press capacity. Meal, molasses and steam are mixed in the (conditioning) mixer to form a mixture that can easily be pressed. The entire supply of meal, steam and liquids is controlled by a fully automated PLC system.

The overhead bridge is usually located across the weigh bridge, to simplify the process of before and after weighing. The overhead bridge conveys the final product that is ready to be transported. Dalein Agriplan has designed the overhead bridge to transport the final product from inside the plant to outside, with a covered gantry for easy maintenance and to protect the equipment from the weather conditions South Africans may encounter. The dispatch is designed to minimise product waste.

The overhead bridge is a set of bins for the final product, located on the outside of the feed mill. It’s designed so that a feed-tanker can drive underneath the bridge, where the feed is released from the bins into the feed-tanker. A large weigh-scale is also fitted on the ground under the bridge, to weigh the feed-truck.
