Fishmeal is a great source of protein and nutrient-rich material commonly used in animal feed and aquaculture. Shuliy fish meal production machine plays a key role in processing raw materials into high-quality fishmeal. In this article, we will look at the main raw materials for fish meal and the steps involved in converting them into fishmeal.

Raw materials for fish meal production

• Whole fish: Small, bony fish such as anchovies, sardines and herring are commonly used as raw materials because they are protein-rich and abundant.
• Fish waste: Trimmings, chips and residues from fish processing plants can also be used as raw materials for fishmeal production.
• Fish by-products: Heads, racks and viscera left over after de-boning or processing of fish can also be used for fishmeal production.
• Aquatic animals: In some cases, other aquatic animals such as shrimps, crabs and squids can also be used as raw materials for fishmeal production.

Fish meal processing steps using Shuliy fishmeal machine

Crushing and cooking

Raw materials for fish meal are pulverized into small pieces to increase surface area and promote efficient cooking. Our fishmeal production line uses a powerful fish shredder to efficiently process the raw materials. The crushed material is then cooked at high temperatures to kill bacteria, reduce moisture content and improve digestibility.

Pressing and drying

After cooking, the material is pressed to remove excess moisture and oil. Shuliy fish screw press squeezing machine uses advanced pressing technology to maximize liquid extraction while maintaining the nutritional value of the fishmeal. The resulting press cake is then passed through a dryer to further reduce its moisture content.

Sieving and grinding

After drying, the fishmeal is sieved using a fishmeal sieving machine to remove any remaining large particles or impurities. This is followed by fine grinding, which ensures uniform particle size and improves the overall quality of the fishmeal.

Thus, raw materials for fish meal production are in fact waste and re-creation of value.
