LignoBond DD: Lignosulphonate Feed Binder

The Lignin used in the Borregaard feed binder “LignoBond DD” is a complex molecule derived from wood during the cellulose pulping process. The product in its dry form has the amazing ability to absorb its own weight in moisture, thus making it possible to add more steam and use a higher pressure and temperature when manufacturing feed pellets. The effect of this is to reduce die blockages and indirectly increase production output and pellet quality.

The constantly fluctuating price of feed ingredients makes reformulating diets to “least cost” an essential approach to maintaining profitability. This puts pelleting production and pellet quality under great stress as the quality and quantity of raw materials change, particularly if raw materials that are difficult to pellet constitute a substantial part of the formulation. The application of 10 kg/ton of “LignoBond DD” will eradicate poor quality and increase pelleting efficiency to these least cost formulations.

Pelleting Consumable Contracts from C.F.E.

Pelleting is the bottle neck in the production function for feed compounders. The requirement to produce a high quality product cost effectively influences all decisions in feed mill management. C.F.E believe that the best vehicle to deliver on this objective of value for money is its Pelleting Consumable Contracts. A Pelleting Consumable Contract is an agreement to manage the pelleting spares and press maintenance requirements. It is a collaboration with customers and suppliers. The cost is calculated on the basis of previous performance and best practice and is expressed in terms of tonnage produced. It is a focus on improving operations performance and reducing costs for suppliers and customers. A contact includes consumable parts for the pelleting press, process improvement planning, preventative maintenance and management of the press. This concept has demanded change on the business relationship between C.F.E. and its customers.

Clextral, leader in twin-screw extrusion technology

Clextral, leader in twin-screw extrusion technology, has been supplying complete production lines for animal feed production for several years. Thanks to its innovation capability, Clextral supported its customers in developing more and more sophisticated treats and super premium production, using various recipes, and achieving a wide array of densities, textures, shapes and colors.

The Evolum® twin-screw extruders are a natural fir in those production lines. The Evolum® 145 (5 to 12 tons per hour), provides the flexibility and extrusion parameters control, and answers to the production needs.

Thanks to its modular design, speed, torque, and heat transfer capability, this extruder is particularly adapted to the new production needs. The great flexibility allows to operate in a wide range of throughput for different recipes, from pure cereal based recipes to premium products with multiples ingredients with very high fat content or fresh meat. The mechanical design of the extruder remains the same from one recipe to the other, avoiding long production stop.

Auxiliaries and automation system have been developed in order to allow quick switch from one product to another without stopping the production line, in order to be able to make small production lots.

Thanks to its knowledge of process and its experience in supplying complete systems, Clextral supplies and install complete production lines including all the elements: raw material storage, mixing, feeding, extrusion, drying, coating, cooling, and packaging of the finished product.
