Tiancheng Intelligent Plant in Nantong

This project is one of the most advanced comprehensive intelligent feed mills in China. The complete production line covers premix, pig and poultry feed, shrimp and crab feed, extruded aquafeed, and raw material expansion lines, with an annual output capacity of 600,000 tons of high-grade feed. In terms of intelligent production, the factory adopts FAMSUN's intelligent one-card management system, intelligent production equipment and control system, as well as a fully automated packaging and palletizing system. FAMSUN also developped its MES system for intelligent factory management, ensuring fair and transparent production performance assessment, established operation protocal on site and enabling full control of operations remotely from the control room.

Haid Aquafeed Project in Ecuador

FAMSUN supplies the machines for the Haida project in Ecuador. There are four 1200-ton silos, three 2500-ton horizontal warehouses, and three 150-ton bins for bulk material. In the single workshop with the largest capacity in the region, there are six pelleting lines and two extrusion lines. The pelleting lines are equipped with six 1200h belt pellet mills (220kW) and the latest automation control system in the industry. The three-step grinding system improves grinding efficiency and reduces particles to a smaller size. The plants use a centralized dust collection system to reduce dust emissions and prevent air pollution. The automation control system uses MyCos 2, developed by FAMSUN, to optimize production scheduling based on orders and improve the timely rate of production delivery.

Haid Aquafeed Project in Vinh Long, Vietnam

The Haid shrimp feed line is located in Longhu County, Vinh Long Province, in the south of Vietnam. It is the third feed mill FAMSUN built for Haid in the Vietnam area. The project is split into three phases. There are two shrimp feed lines and 10 bins for bulk meals in the first phase, one extruded fish feed line in phase two, and two shrimp feed lines and ten bins for bulk meals in phase three. The Haid shrimp feed business is booming in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, where the market demand for shrimp feed is huge, and the supply has been in shortage. The successful production of the plant is of important strategic significance for the development of the shrimp feed market and the promotion of Haid's market share.

Production Process

Raw Material Receiving

Raw Material Receiving

The receiving area covers the process of materials of all kinds for direct or indirect use. FAMSUN provides corresponding and suitable receiving equipment for different raw materials, different receiving methods, and different capacity requirements.
Conveying

Conveying

The head of FAMSUN chain conveyor is equipped with a glass window and a baffle, and the tail is equipped with an arc baffle, which is easy to observe and effectively reduce the residue; the elevator is equipped with a unique self-cleaning structure, which effectively reduces the residue and facilitates the cleaning.

Conveying
Cleaning

Cleaning

With magnets, sifters, dust collectors and other equipment and systems, impurities are removed from the raw material to ensure that the stored grain is of good quality and to protect the downstream equipment.
Grinding

Grinding

FAMSUN provides grinders used for particle size reduction of various feed raw materials. FAMSUN grinders have the advantages of high capacity, low energy consumption, high grinding quality, narrow particle size distribution, low vibration, stable operation, and high reliability.

Grinding
Dosing & Mixing

Dosing & Mixing

The process of dosing and mixing is the bottleneck of compound feed production. FAMSUN developed customized dosing systems for customers to ensure high adaptability, fast batching speed and high precision.

Dosing
Conditioning

Conditioning

FAMSUN shrimp feed preconditioning technology offers two process solutions: multi-deck intensive conditioning increases starch gelatinization and protein denaturation by extending the retention time and increasing the homogenization in the mash and mechanical pressure conditioning accelerates the reaction process in a high-pressure environment, both solutions can independently improve feed quality and (feed conversion ratio) FCR.

Conditioning
Pelleting

Pelleting

Pelleting is a thermo-mechanical process combining moisture and heat in an initial phase called, preconditioning, to soften feed particles followed by the pellet mill, which presses the raw material through a die to create dense pellets. FAMSUN intelligent extrusion systems offer the advantages of high output, optimal yield efficiency, and detailed production data.

Pelleting
Cooling

Cooling

The cooling process cools the feed to 3 to 5 ℃ higher than ambient temperatures to mitigate mold growth and to ensure stable storage and transportation. FAMSUN cooling equipment adopts modular design, with high efficiency, uniform distribution, and less residue.

Cooling
Screening

Screening

After drying and cooling, we need to sieve out the fines and clumps to aquire the required size pellets. Famsun provides the renovated combine sieve which has the advantages of convenient sreen replacement, high capacity, small footprint and low energy consumption.

Screening
Liquid Dosing and Coating

Liquid Dosing and Coating

Fats, molasses, or other liquids of a particular quality or nutritional requirement are applied to the surface of the feed pellets. FAMSUN vertical coater has unique spraying structure, high and uniform spraying precision, less residual and breakage, and its core components are top brands to ensure reliable quality.

Coating
Packaging

Packaging

The FAMSUN packaging scale delivers high precision, minimal dust generation, and exceptional packaging efficiency. Equipped with an intelligent control system, it enables real-time export of packaging reports and data. Additionally, it can integrate with the FAMSUN FimCOS system,enabling real time monitoring of the packaging operation from the machine control room, the packaging reports for different feed types can also be generated from the machine control room.

Packaging & Palletizing
Palletizing

Palletizing

FAMSUN’s palletizing robots adopt Japanese Kawasaki or German Kuka technology to ensure stable operation, simple maintenance, efficient space utilization, and flexible design to meet diverse needs.
