Single-Screw Aquatic Feed Extruder Introduction

The Single-Screw Aquatic Feed Extruder is a high-performance extrusion system designed to convert a wide range of raw materials into premium-quality aquatic feed pellets. It is widely used in producing feed for fish, catfish, tilapia, shrimp, crabs, and other aquatic species. This dry-type floating fish feed machine is ideal for small—to medium-sized fish farms and feed processing plants.

The extruder supports both floating and sinking feed production and can also process pet food, full-fat soybeans, and other specialty feeds. With a robust structure, advanced components, and energy-efficient design, this machine offers excellent durability, versatility, and performance.

Single-Screw Aquatic Feed Extruder Advantages

✅ Versatile Feed Production
Capable of producing various types of feeds including: Floating fish feed, Sinking aquatic feed, Pet food, Full-fat soybean meal

✅ High Output Capacity
When producing Φ3.0mm tilapia feed, the machine delivers an output of 5.0–5.5 tons/hour, making it suitable for commercial operations.

✅ Advanced Material & Durability

Uses innovative wear-resistant materials, extending the lifespan of vulnerable components by 2–3 times. Screw service life reaches 8000–10,000 tons of feed.

✅ High-Precision Extruder Chamber

Constructed with reinforced strength to prevent deformation of the jacket or loosening of the wear-resistant bushing. Supports both heating and cooling operations for precise control.

✅ Modular Screw & Barrel Design

A flexible combination of chamber and single-screw allows easy adjustment and structural change. Convenient for switching between different feed types and raw materials.

✅ Floating Time Control

Extrusion degree can be adjusted to regulate floating time in water, ideal for different species’ feeding behavior.

✅ Energy Efficient Operation

Optimized design helps reduce power consumption and lowers the overall cost of feed production.

Single-Screw Aquatic Feed Extruder Application Scenarios

✅ Fish Feed Processing Line
Used in large tilapia farms to produce floating pellets with uniform shape and high digestibility.

✅ Shrimp and Crab Feed Plants
Supports the production of slow-sinking feed with optimal water stability for shrimp and crab farming.

✅ Pet Food Production
Produces various pet food shapes and formulations using different dies and recipes.

✅ Soybean Extrusion
Used in oilseed processing plants to produce full-fat soybean meal with enhanced digestibility.
