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.

Each design is unique in its own form to suit varied situations. Dalein provides a variety of specifically designed augers, for horizontal or inclined transport of bulk goods and materials. Augers are constructed from durable materials and provide an efficient, economical and dependable conveying medium, reflecting the benefits of our sound engineering experience.

Advantages of Dalein Agriplan's well-designed flight conveyers are clean, low energy consumption and dust free operation Augers, with favourable dimensions and a great degree of maintenance-friendliness as an extra touch.

The transport capacity and the variety of products that can be moved with our augers are exceptionally high. Augers can also be used as discharge and capacity control equipment.

The shaft with the scroll moves the product from the intake trough to the outlet on the drive side. The product does not rotate and just moves forward. The drive group consists of an electrical gearbox motor with optimal frequency controller for full control. Equipment and accessories are manufactured both for straight forward conveyors and for complete systems in large turn-key projects.

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.

Dalein Agriplan designed a belt conveyor with a wide variety that can meet the client’s feed milling specifications. Belt conveyors can be at an incline of up to a max of 40° and can move up to a speed of ±1.2m/sec. Lengths can be custom designed to suit each feed plant needs with widths varying between 0.9m – 1.5m. Belt conveyors are manufactured with a safety feature to ensure all personal safety as well with an automatic tracking for accurate belt movement and can be used indoors or outdoors.
