If the screen mesh is damaged or screening accuracy is unstable, excessive powder will enter the finished product.

This may lead to:

• Poor pellet appearance

• Lower market value

• Dust problems during packing

• Reduced customer satisfaction

Many feed mills experience unstable capacity because the screen holes become blocked during production.

Common causes include:

• High moisture raw materials

• Improper screen hole design

• Poor screen cleaning structure

• Low-quality screen surface processing

Once blockage occurs, production efficiency drops quickly, and operators must stop frequently for cleaning.

For aquatic feed especially, pellet uniformity is very important.

If the vibrating screen cannot separate oversized or undersized pellets effectively, the final feed may have:

• Uneven floating performance

• Inconsistent sinking speed

• Poor feeding behavior

• Higher feed waste

This issue becomes more obvious in shrimp feed and small fish feed production.

Different feeds require different screening precision.

For example:

• Poultry feed

• Livestock feed

• Floating fish feed

• Shrimp feed

all require different screen configurations.

Oversized screening equipment may increase energy consumption.
Undersized equipment may become the bottleneck of the entire production line.

Proper matching is critical.

Easy screen replacement and easy cleaning can significantly reduce downtime.

This becomes especially important for feed mills running multiple formulas.
