How to Keep Flat Die Pellet Mill Spare Parts in Good Condition

Roller and die are the most important spare parts of a flat die pellet mill. In the pelletizing process of the flat die pellet mill, raw materials are extruded between roller and die, which makes them more susceptible to wear than other parts.

So, it is necessary to learn how to reduce the wear and tear of a flat die pellet mill. The operator should standardize the operation to reduce the damage of the main parts of the flat die pellet mill, extend its service life, reduce the cost of feed processing, and improve the production efficiency.
