Crumbler
We provide 2 types of crumblers&rsquo
• The local Dalein Agriplan crumblers&rsquo
• PTN crumblers&rsquo
The crumbles’ are specifically designed for crumb production of various feeds. Two spring bolted rollers are specially spaced to gently crumble the pellets into specified smaller pieces. For reliability during use, all the crumbles’ are fitted with specific fluted and machined rollers.

BOA - Compactor
A double-walled mixing chamber in which steam and liquids are added and the mixture is compacted using a hydraulically operated compacting chamber. Generously sized paddles, adjustable in both height and pitch, guarantee a homogenous mixture and a hygienic process. The mixture is introduced into the compacting chamber where a rotating three-roller head, presses it through two conical friction rings.

Conditioner
The stainless-steel conditioner mixer has large paddles whose height and angle can be
adjusted to provide homogenous mixing and a hygienic process.The robust, low-maintenance machine can be combined with a feeder screw and steam set
and contributes to an optimum absorption of steam and liquids.There is a choice of two options: a standard conditioner mixer and an insulated, electrically
heated version which minimises the formation of condensation and premature cooling.
Development and engineering details make the difference in this stainless-steel conditioner.
Large-scale paddles whose height and angle can be adjusted generate homogenous mixing
and a hygienic process.The conditioner is often supplied in combination with a feeder screw and steam set.
Homogenous mixing and hygienic process. The benefits are:
- Optimum absorption of steam and liquids.
- Robust housing construction.
- Easy to clean.
- Longer maintenance intervals.
- Simple design.

Pellet Press
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.

Steam
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.
