For our Nigerian farmers, local pelleting machine na special equipment wey dey help convert raw feed materials like corn, cassava, and soybean into small, compact pellets. These pellets dey better for poultry and livestock because dem dey easy to digest, reduce waste, and improve animal health.
Our MAIKONG pelleting machines don dey designed specifically for Naija farmers to fit our unique needs—like power instability, small-scale farming, and local raw materials.
Process Stage | How E Dey Work | Why E Matter for Nigeria |
---|---|---|
Material Crushing | Raw feed dey ground into fine powder before entering machine. | Helps local crops like cassava mix well. |
Mixing & Conditioning | Water or oil dey added to make the mixture sticky for pellet formation. | Prevents dryness in hot Naija climate. |
Pellet Compression | Powder dey pressed through die holes under high pressure to form pellets. | Strong machines no go bend under tough materials. |
Cooling & Drying | Hot pellets dey cooled to harden and reduce moisture. | Stops mold growth in humid areas. |
Packaging | Pellets dey packed in bags for storage or sale. | Easy to transport to market. |
