Alfalfa-Pellet-Maschine
Many livestock farmers have long faced challenges in using alfalfa: large losses occur when feeding bulk alfalfa, leading to significant waste in livestock consumption; the raw alfalfa has coarse, hard fibers that are difficult to digest, and its nutritional composition is unbalanced; meanwhile, hay yield and quality are highly susceptible to weather conditions, and storage and transportation are also very challenging. Choosing a RICHI alfalfa pellet machine easily processes alfalfa into well-formed feed pellets. The formed alfalfa pellets have a balanced nutritional composition, significantly improving livestock digestibility and absorption, while effectively reducing feed waste and freeing farmers from passive limitations imposed by weather conditions!
Die wichtigsten Vorteile unserer Anlagen
The core challenge of alfalfa pelleting lies in the high fiber content, low density, and poor binding properties of the raw material, coupled with severe equipment wear during processing. This places higher demands on the compression capacity, wear resistance, power configuration, and overall process design of pelleting equipment. RICHI alfalfa pellet mill is specifically optimized and developed to address these pain points in alfalfa pelleting operations. It features a high compression ratio ring die, a high-power gear transmission system, a steam conditioning device, and a uniform and stable feeder. Furthermore, it employs a wear-resistant structural design to consistently ensure the quality of finished pellets and the overall production efficiency of the machine.
High compression ratio ring die design
The loose fibrous structure of hay requires greater compression force. The RICHI alfalfa pelletizer employs a high-compression-ratio ring die structure to increase extrusion pressure.
The ring die and pressure rollers are made of high-strength alloy steel, making them more wear-resistant. Furthermore, the ring die aperture and compression ratio can be adjusted according to the characteristics of different raw materials (alfalfa, straw, grains).
High-power gear drive system
Compared to traditional belt drives, gear drives can output larger and more stable torque, making them more suitable for high-fiber raw materials such as alfalfa and high-pressure pelletizing conditions.
The equipment is equipped with a Siemens brand main motor, which provides ample power output and minimal operational fluctuations, ensuring continuous and stable production over extended periods.
High-efficiency conditioning system
The sources of forage are complex, and the moisture content fluctuates greatly. Both excessively high and low moisture content in the raw materials can affect pelleting stability.
Our alfalfa pelleting machine is equipped with an intelligent steam conditioner that can adjust the amount of steam added based on the raw material conditions. Furthermore, the forage is thoroughly conditioned, making it palatable and easier for livestock to digest and absorb.
Stable feeding system
After being crushed, alfalfa hay is loose, lightweight, and has poor flowability, making it prone to bridging and blockage during feeding. RICHI alfalfa pellet machine is equipped with a variable frequency conditioning feeding device that automatically adjusts the feed flow rate in real time, effectively avoiding equipment blockage and idle running.
The feeding mechanism uses a dual-shaft anti-bridging structure to suppress material bridging and accumulation at the source; combined with a forced feeding component, it continuously pushes the material, ensuring a smooth feed of the hay into the pelleting chamber.
Technische Parameter
RICHI offers alfalfa pellet machines with various capacities for sale. The equipment’s capacity is affected by the alfalfa content. The higher the alfalfa content, the lower the equipment’s capacity.

0.5-0.8 T/H alfalfa pellet machine for sale Kazakhstan
The client is a feed company in Kazakhstan, primarily engaged in the production and sale of forage feed. The country’s forage harvest season is concentrated, with fresh hay having a moisture content as high as 65%-75%. Traditional natural drying methods are highly susceptible to weather conditions and have long processing times, making them unsuitable for large-scale feed production.
The client requires an integrated drying and pelleting solution to solve the problem of drying high-moisture forage, while further processing the hay into pelleted feed for easier storage, transportation, and sales.
8-10 т/H alfalfa pellet mill for sale Egypt
The customer mainly relied on traditional bale hay and loose mixed feed before investing in a pellet production system. However, the nutritional balance of manually mixed feed was difficult to maintain. To improve feeding efficiency and provide a more stable diet for livestock, the customer planned to establish a complete feed pellet production system for manufacturing alfalfa-based total mixed ration (TMR) pellets.
The customer required a solution that could not only process high-fiber alfalfa but also combine it with energy and protein ingredients such as corn, wheat, and soybean meal to produce nutritionally balanced feed pellets.
2-3 т/H Alfalfa Hay Pellet Machine for Sale Australia
Australia has a well-developed livestock industry and a strong market demand for high-quality feed. This client, optimistic about the prospects of the ruminant feed processing industry, plans to utilize the abundant local alfalfa hay to produce pelleted feed and has commissioned us to develop a complete alfalfa hay pelleting solution.
The client’s raw material is sun-dried alfalfa hay, which requires no secondary drying and can be directly pelleted after grinding. Simultaneously, the formula includes corn, wheat, and other grains to further enhance the feed’s nutritional value.
Complete Alfalfa Pellet Production Line Process

Häufig gestellte Fragen
What raw materials can be processed by an alfalfa pellet machine?
→
Alfalfa pellet machines are mainly used to process high-fiber raw materials such as alfalfa hay, alfalfa powder, forage, and silage. They can also be mixed with grains and protein raw materials such as corn, wheat, soybean meal, and bran to produce complete feed pellets.
What is the suitable moisture content of alfalfa before pelletizing?
→
The moisture content of alfalfa raw materials typically needs to be controlled at around 12%-15% to ensure good molding results. If the raw materials are too dry or too wet, they need to be adjusted by drying or adding moisture.
Can the alfalfa pelleting machine produce complete feed pellets?
→
Yes. By adding ingredients and mixing systems, alfalfa can be mixed with raw materials such as corn, wheat, soybean meal, and minerals to produce complete mixed feed pellets that meet the nutritional needs of animals such as cattle, sheep, and horses.
What capacity options are available for alfalfa pellet making machines?
→
RICHI can provide alfalfa pellet making machines with different capacities according to customer needs. Small equipment is suitable for ranch use, while large equipment can be used in commercial feed processing plants. The capacity of a single machine can usually cover 0.5-20 T/H or more, and multiple machines can be combined to expand production.
What size of alfalfa pellets can be produced?
→
Alfalfa pellets typically range in diameter from 2 to 12 mm. Different sizes of ring dies can be used to produce alfalfa pellets to meet the feeding needs of different animals such as cattle, sheep, horses, and deer.
Do I need a complete alfalfa pellet production line or only a pellet mill?
→
The decision depends on the customer’s production scale and raw material conditions. If there is already equipment such as crushing and mixing, an alfalfa pelletizer can be purchased separately; if the factory is built from the beginning of raw material processing, RICHI can provide a complete turnkey production line including breaking bales, crushing, mixing, pelleting, cooling, screening and packaging.
How does an alfalfa pellet mill improve feed storage and transportation?
→
Pelletizing can increase alfalfa density, reduce storage space and transportation costs, while reducing dust and feed waste and improving feed utilization. It is particularly suitable for long-term storage and long-distance transportation.
What factors affect the price of an alfalfa hay pellet machine?
→
Equipment prices primarily depend on capacity, level of automation, production line configuration, raw material processing requirements, and customer customization needs. For example, the investment cost of a large-scale fully automated alfalfa pellet production line will be higher than that of a single machine.
