Lower-density expanded structure
Formula, moisture, extrusion and drying are coordinated to develop the agreed buoyancy target.

Sinking Fish Feed Production
Plan denser aquatic feed pellets by defining the species, raw materials, sinking target, pellet dimensions and extrusion conditions.
Application distinction
Floating and sinking targets use the same line differently.
This is a process and formula distinction, not a requirement to buy an unrelated production platform.
Denser pellet behavior
Recipe and operating conditions are adjusted toward the requested sinking behavior and water stability.

Raw materials and specification
Send the formula status and sinking test target.
Common inputs may include corn flour, wheat flour, soybean meal, fish meal, other protein meals, oils, vitamins and minerals.
- Fish species and growth stage
- Pellet diameter, length and tolerance
- Desired sinking behavior and water-stability test
- Ingredient list, grind size and formula availability
- Target hourly capacity and commercial pack size
Sinking-feed route
A controlled route with a different density target.
The same major line sections remain; operating and formulation targets change.
01Crush and prepare
02Mix and condition
03Extrude for target density
04Size and cut
05Dry and cool
06Inspect and pack
Do not treat the die as the only sinking-control device. Formula, moisture, screw configuration and operating parameters also affect density and water behavior.
Equipment fit
Aquatic feed configuration up to 5000 kg/h.
Potential scope includes crusher, mixer, conveyor, twin-screw extruder, cutting system, dryer, cooler and packing machine, with optional oil spraying where required.
