Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the power consumption, work capacity and some properties of the pellet feed of the pelletizing machine used in the pelleting of animal feeds consisting of small and granular mixtures. A pellet machine with a die hole inlet diameter of 8 mm, an outlet diameter of 5 mm and a flat die with a diameter of 195 mm was used to pellet the feeds. In the experiments, two different feed materials consisting of mixed feed and barley only were used. The bulk weight of the pellets (kg m-3), durability (%), compression resistance (N mm-2), pellet moisture (%) were determined. In addition, hourly pelleting capacity (kg h -1), required energy consumption (kW), specific energy consumption (kW kg -1) of the pelletizing machine were determined.As a result of the trials, the capacity of the pellet feed making machine was 172.80 kg h-1 in the pelleting process from barley and 170 kg h-1 in the pelleting process from mixed feed. The required electrical energy consumption was 7.63 kW, in barley pelleting and 9.18 kW in mixed feed pelleting. Specific energy consumption 0.044 kW kg-1 in barley pelleting, 0.054 kW kg-1 in mixed feed pelleting
