How to analyze the quality of suppliers on the Internet? We have some experience and suggestions:

Decao contains other products and information you need, so please check it out.

A: Quotation check:

If some equipment is yellow, some is red, and some is blue, and the photos on the quotation have all kinds of colors, it means it is a trading company or a small factory.

B: Company website check:

B1: Are the colors of all the machines on the website the same or different?

If the equipment displayed on the website has a variety of colors, it means it is a trading company or a small factory.

B2: Are the equipment photos in the project cases he showed on website obviously different from the colors of the equipment he quoted? If they are different, it means that the project cases are fake.

B3: Are the machines advertised on the website large or small?

You cannot buy large equipment from a company that only advertised small machines.

C: Previously installed animal feed production lines:

During the previous discussion, did he send you enough real project cases?

If only a few cases are sent to you, or the cases are obviously fake, yes, it means he is a trading company or a small factory.

D: Most important - Equipment workshop inspection:

You can arrange a zoom meeting to observe the following points through video conferencing:

D1: Are there many large pellet machines completed and ready for delivery in the workshop (more than 10 units)?

If there are only a few (or many) small pellet machines for transportation or display, it means that he does not have the ability to manufacture large machines.

D2: You must check his electric control cabinet production workshop to see:

• First check:
  You need to see the semi-manufactured electric control cabinet , to know he manufacture the electric control cabinet or not? if without semi-manufactured control cabinet , means he is a small factory , can not make control cabinet by himself.
• Second check :
  Are there enough orders/control cabinets under manufactured ? If there are many orders (more than 10 units), his workshop must be showing various control cabinets of different production lines and semi-finished cabinets

D3: Are the colors of the machines in the workshop the same?

If not, the machines in the workshop have different colors, which means they bought the machines from different factories. They do not have the ability to manufacture it.

D4: If the workshop is not full and very empty, it means it is not good.

....

Why are there at least 10 production lines of electric control cabinets (not counting single machines) and pelletizer ? Because the production cycle of each production line is 30-180 days, we calculate it based on an average of 60 days (2 months), which means that if there are 60 orders a year, and an average of 5 orders a month (not many orders), then there should be more than 10 orders in production in any month of the year.

For example, if you see 3 electric control cabinets, it means that he has only 2-4 orders in the past 2 months, an average of only 1-2 orders per month, and only 10-20 orders per year. Such a factory is very small in scale, with unstable quality and unstable personnel.

(Our engineers and purchasing managers shared these key points, because when our factory needs to buy some materials and processing equipment, they will first do an online inspection and then select 2-3 good ones, secondly they will visit the factories to confirm the final supplier, when they do online inspection, they will very carefully check those points one by one to avoid to choose a trading company or a small factory )

Compared with Top supplier :

Firstly - To define :

To produce higher quality of pellets , need :

• -higher quality design of fish feed production line
• - higher quality of each single machine
• - higher quality of pellet raw materials

What conditions should the higher quality fish feed production line meet?

1. operational safety
2. cost reduction technologies
3. optimal power consumption
4. optimal man power requirement.

What conditions should the higher quality single machine meet?

1. better design of single machine
2. better raw materials of machines
3. better workers in workshop, with more professional ability to manufacture it with fully careful and fully responsibility

higher quality of feed raw materials?

customer need to control this by his own company

So, you can do comparation between RICHI and top brand :

• Whose design is better?
• Is the structure and material of each single machine big different ?

Second- Compared with Top supplier :

Avantage of Top suppliers:

1. quality is good
2. service is good
3. brand is better.

Advantage of RICHI:

1. quality is good
2. price is cheaper
3. service is better & quicker
4. brand is good.

Suggestion:

Other costs (besides the machine)

We can prepare a semi-turnkey price for the complete project for you, including the cost for air compressor, steel structure, installation, future spare parts.

Sir, as we understand, such a project is not just the cost of the machine, there are many other costs in the future, compared with the semi-turnkey price, you will find that our price is much cheaper than the top suppliers.

About the total investment amount

The economic situation in the world is not very good, the global economy has entered the post-epidemic era, no one can ensure that the economy will get better in a short time, how to ensure a good profit in this situation?

Controlling the investment amount has become a way to win the future, and the money saved ( 2-3 times) will become the pure profit of your company.

Even if the top brands say they are a better choice, customers need to consider: does it really cost so much?

And important, compared with Chinese & Turkey & India suppliers , our price is not cheap . but really much cheaper than German & Italy & America suppliers.

The selling price of your pellets in the market

Whether the pellets are produced by RICHI MACHINERY or top brand equipment, will there be a big difference in the final selling price of the pellets in your target pellet market?

If you use a top brand machine, it can lead to the price of your pellets being 2-3 times that of RICHI pellets, that is also OK.

However, the fact is: The price of pellets from top brand machines and RICHI machines is basically the same.

This means that top brand projects cannot bring you higher profits than RICHI, on the contrary, RICHI machines can bring you more profits than them.

With the money to buy top brand equipment, you can buy 2-3 sets of RICHI production lines, and your factory capacity will be expanded by 2-3 times, so that you can win the market faster, while bringing greater profits and broader development space.

So from:

• Extra cost except machines
• Total investment amount & profit
• Final price of pellets on the market
• Speed of winning the market

Please do consider more between RICHI and top brands.

After appropriate adjustment, the process of fish feed production line can be used to process pet feed or other feed types, but it needs to be optimized according to the characteristics of the product. The following is a specific analysis:

1. Process versatility

The core equipment of fish feed production line (crushing, mixing, conditioning, granulation/expansion, cooling, packaging, etc.) is similar to the infrastructure of pet feed and other feed production lines, and has the potential for cross-category production.

2. Key adjustment points

(1) Raw material adaptability:

Fish feed often uses high-protein raw materials (fish meal, soybean meal), while pet feed may need to add meat by-products, fruit and vegetable fibers, etc., and the crushing fineness (such as ultra-fine grinding) and mixing uniformity need to be adjusted.

Other feeds (such as livestock and poultry feeds) may need to increase the proportion of grains, and the conditioning temperature needs to be optimized to avoid excessive starch gelatinization.

For more information, please visit Aquatic Feed Production Line.

(2) Adjustment of puffing process:

Fish feed puffing requires high stability in water, while pet snacks (such as dog food) may pursue high puffing degree and special shape (bone/fish shape), which requires changing molds and adjusting temperature and pressure parameters.

The density control process of sinking fish feed is different from that of floating pet feed.

(3) Functional requirements:

Pet feed often needs to add attractants and health ingredients (such as probiotics), and a post-spraying system is required (to avoid high temperature damage to active substances).

Aquatic feed may need to enhance water resistance, while livestock and poultry feed pays more attention to particle hardness.

3. Equipment upgrade suggestions

Expansion module: add ultrafine grinder, liquid addition system, twin-screw extruder (adapt to high meat content formula).

Flexible design: The production line has reserved interfaces to facilitate switching of product categories (such as changing the ring die aperture and adjusting the cooling air volume).

Many manufacturers have successfully produced high-end pet food (such as high-meat dog food and cat food), special feed (such as amphibian and reptile feed, ornamental fish feed), functional livestock and poultry feed (such as nursery pig pellet feed), etc. through the transformation of fish feed production lines.

The fish feed production line has cross-category production capabilities, but the process parameters need to be adjusted according to the target product, and modular equipment needs to be added when necessary. We can provide you with process adaptability assessment and transformation solutions to maximize the value of existing production lines!

Being the professional supplier worldwide of animal feed machine for the animal feed industry with more than 25 years of experience, we are confident in our claim that RICHI is able to supply the optimum fish feed processing technology solution for any possible need in aqua feed mills.

Whether it's sink or float, RICHI fish feed machine and fish feed plant will keep your aqua feed pelleting production afloat. The extruding and pelleting systems combine to perfect product density and sinking speed so your fish food pellets is always a big splash.

With the rapid development of the aquaculture industry, traditional aquaculture methods are far from meeting fish feed manufacturers' needs. The requirements for fish food pellets are not only nutritionally balanced, the fish food pellets is stable in the water, and will not pollute the water quality, etc.

Put forward stricter requirements on the environmental quality of fish survival. The high protein fish pellets produced by the fish feed pelleting machine is hard pellets, and the other is the fish feed extruder machine, and the processed pellet for fish is soft pellets.

1. Crushing section

Crushing with our fish feed crushing machine, we firstly break the raw materials into smaller pieces, for an efficient pellet making. This is done by fast-moving rotating hammers within the crushing chamber.

To further reduce the size, the materials are run through a rapid airflow of very high pressure, breaking the materials into much smaller pieces. A fish feed hammer mill is therefore necessary for fish feed raw materials grinding in a fish feed plant.

2. Batching and mixing section

The crushed materials which are now in powdered form should be thoroughly mixed to get a fish feed pellet that is nutritional and of high quality. One crucial part of the mixing process is shearing and convection, and this mixing effect is achieved with our fish feed mixer machine which has a twin ribbon and a single shaft.

3. First ingredients and mixing system

The first ingredient is mainly the preparation of popular raw materials, that is, the preparation of relatively large materials in the formula. This fish feed mill process is mainly completed by the electronic batching scale.

The single-shaft horizontal ribbon mixer for fish feed can be used for the first mixing, and the grease addition system must be considered on the fish feed mixer equipment.

4. Secondary batching and mixing system

Due to the low food intake of aquatic animals, short digestive tract, and poor digestion ability, the aquatic feed requires a very fine particle size, and the uniformity of the feed can be reflected in a smaller range, which also requires the aquatic feed to have a finer particle size.

Therefore, a fine pulverization process must be used. In the secondary pulverization process, the mixed materials are lifted by a hoist and then enter the warehouse to be pulverized, and then enter the micro pulverizer.

The cleaned materials are subjected to secondary batching and mixing. Various raw materials enter the secondary mixer after secondary batching. There is an artificial feeding port above the secondary mixer, which is mainly used for the addition of trace additives. At the same time, there is a liquid addition device on the mixer for the addition of grease.

5. Extruding/pelletizing section

The mixed raw materials for fish feed production are compressed into desired shapes and fish pellet sizes with the fish feed machine (fish feed extruder machine or fish feed pellet machine).

For a cheap, easy-to-operate, yet reliable fish feed making machine for a small-scale or medium-scale fish feed plant, the dry type fish feed extruder is highly recommended. For large fish feed factories however, the wet type feed extruder that has a conditioner will be able to produce in large quantity, a high quality pellet for fish.

6. Drying section

When the feed material run through the fish feed pellet making machine or fish feed extruder, it becomes hot and has moisture in it, hence the need to lower its temperature and dry it off.

An ideal fish food pellets drying can be achieved with a mesh belt dryer which is simple structured, not difficult to install and easy to maintain. This important fish feed mill equipment that must be included in the fish feed production line of a fish feed mill.

7. Oil Spraying section

The good taste and nice smell of the end product is owed to the Oil Spraying Machine. This equipment rotates with high speed, spraying atomized oil on both surfaces of the fish food pellets. Excess oil during this process is then recycled through a special filter.

8. Pellets cooling section

When the temperature of the oil-sprayed fish food pellets increases, they become soft, and can easily break. To avoid loss in this regard, the fish food pellets must be cooled, and are consequently hardened. The cooling type adopted by most fish feed manufacturing plants is the counter flow cooler where the fish feed pellets are in opposite direction to the air cooling them.

9. Pellets Packaging section

There are several packaging machines perfect for weighing and bagging finished fish food pellets. Such fish feed mill machines can help you reduce labor intensity, increase your production, meet hygiene requirements and satisfy large scale needs of your fish feed pellet plant.

This packaged fish food pellets would be in sealed bags and ready for storage or further transportation.

Our core competencies, leading technologies, and international business units work together in perfect unison. The RICHI staff commitment and dynamics truly distinguish us from other fish feed plant suppliers.
