CPM
CFE Group is the exclusive agent
for CPM equipment in the UK and
Ireland. The CPM footprint has grown
over the past three years in both of
these markets. Customer requirement
for lower kilowatt hours per tonne and
higher throughput per hour has moved the Direct Drive and Lineator
supported machines into a premier position in the marketplace.
In the past 3 years, CFE/CPM have supplied 14 machines from the
7932 and 7936 series, equipment which is producing throughput up to
20 tonnes per hour in ruminant and up to 30 tonnes per hour on poultry
feed. CPM is also a market leader in hygienic equipment, having sold 10
hygienic heat treatment lines into Irish and UK poultry feed manufacturing
plants over the past 4 years.
CORE BUSINESS
In 2017, CFE Group invested heavily
in its core business. They purchased
a new state-of-the-art, Danish
manufactured, high pressure water
cleaning system to unblock pellet
mill dies. Operating at pressures
of 15,000 p.s.i., the system, which is equipped with the latest CNC
technology, is the first of its kind in Western Europe. This washer unit
uses one nozzle to unblock holes, versus two in the older version, and
is capable of handling the largest dies in the market. This progressive
change has led to increased efficiency and reduction in washing time and
water consumption. In refurbishing, CFE doesn’t heat dies as heat can
damage die hardness and distort the die ring. To ensure continuation of
CFE’s excellence in refurbishing processes, the company also invested
in a new die grinder and CNC countersinking machine.
To see how CFE’s jet wash system maintains die integrity for
optimum pelleting efficiency, view the new machine online at www.
cfegroup.com.
Further development for increased quality and efficiency on roll
refurbishing sees CFE’s added investment this year in a washing
system for rolls. Efficient cleaning allows for better inspection of parts
and improves product quality of roll assemblies. CFE is commissioning a
bespoke single stage spray washer which is heavy duty, double skinned
Cleverly designed and built to last.

GAme eNGINeeRING lTDThe Game Engineering Way
Over the past thirty-one years
– the company was formed in
1986 – Game Engineering has
become one of the UK’s most
respected designers, manufacturers and suppliers of systems for
producing animal feeds. And the fact that many of the components that
will be included in a Game Engineering processing system will have
been manufactured by the company, rather than simply purchased
from another supplier, further enhances their reputation.
While Game Engineering is involved in a number of different
industry sectors, the animal feeds sector is by far the largest. In recent
years, projects that have included the design and installation of pellet
presses, grinders, ingredient additive systems, liquids coating and
a whole range of silos and other ingredient or final product storage
systems, have been supplied to some of the most important animal
feed manufacturers throughout the UK and Ireland.
But Game Engineering isn’t just a supplier of new systems. Nothing
lasts forever and an animal feed production facility is no exception.
Even with the best planned maintenance, components wear out and
when this happens, Game Engineering is there to help. Equipment can

KAhlKAHL flat die pelleting presses for the pelleting of roughage
As well as energy and nutrients, the feed value of the ration for ruminants
also comprises the structure effect “long fibre”, as the structure effect
is to be ensured in the glandular stomach of the animals. For rearing
and fattening it is important to provide an optimised feed, and here we
have the advantage of flat die pelleting of bulky raw materials (such
as straw, alfalfa, etc.), which maintains the physical structure of the
raw components.
performance and development.
The “long fibre” structure determines the feed intake, faecal
consistency and metabolic parameters of the acid-base balance. For
example, short-chopped maize silage has a significant negative impact
on the health of dairy cows compared to longer maize silage. In addition
to an increase of abomasal displacements, a body cell destabilising
effect could be demonstrated via the significantly higher activities of
AST (aspartate aminotransferase, a liver enzyme) in the blood serum
of cows fed on short maize silage. This corresponds to the experience
of the practical livestock management.
The animals get a feed (Kahl pellets), which supports the rumen
development due to its “coarse” structure and a high content of “long
fibres”. The percentage of the raw materials (energy, protein and
structure carriers) in the pellet is determined by the respective animal

Pathophysiologically the negative influence of a “short” maize
silage is effected via a shift in the acid-base balance towards an acidotic
metabolism. The preservation of the structure in the feed pelleted with
the flat die press significantly contributes to an improvement of the
animal performance and animal health.
In the KAHL pilot plant customer-specified product tests are
performed with customer-oriented process parameters. In recent
decades, more than 10,000 products have been successfully pelleted
in the pilot plant.

TeKpRo lTDTekPro Ltd are proud to
present their UK Designed
and Manufactured NHP200 &
NHP300 Holmen Testers.
The Holmen NHP200 Pellet Durability Tester is the flagship of the New
Holmen pellet testing range.
Once a sample of pellets is loaded into the machine it removes
any fines, weighs the sample, tests the pellets by agitating them with
air, weighs the remaining sample and calculates the PDI.
This semi-automatic solution helps prevent the chance of human
error, providing accurate and reliable results. The reduction in human input
also allows other tasks to be completed while a test is being carried out.
The average test lasts only 4 minutes and the test time is selected
according to the pellet diameter entered. Suitable for pellets 3mm-
12mm diameter.
The Holmen NHP300 Pellet Durability Tester is perfectly suited to a
busy feed mill.
Samples are automatically taken from the production line after the
pellet press, before the cooler, tested, then returned to the line, and a
PDI result provided to the NHP300 control software, or to your current
mill management software if preferred.
Taking a sample from the process line in this way enables changes
to be made at the point which will maximise production efficiency,
reduce cost, minimise waste, and maintain pellet quality.
In addition to calculating the PDI, the amount of ‘dust’ (fines) can
be calculated.
Up to four pellet lines can be tested by one NHP300, with the
option to return samples back to their original lines too.

Van Aarsen introduces a new generation pellet mills with motor operated
roller adjustment and active roller slip control. These functionalities
provide you optimized feed quality and production efficiency.
Easily choose the desired roller distance to the die
The robust designed motor-operated roller adjustment enables the
operator to easily choose the desired roller distance to the die, even
when the pellet mill is in full operation. Together with the intelligent
software, this system offers recipe controlled pellet mill operation.
A trouble free pelleting process
The active roller slip control is another intelligent system designed to
optimize the pellet mill production efficiency. This system detects roller
slip and activates the system to automatically resolve the slip if desired,
reducing the downtime due to roller slip to nil. It also offers you the
opportunity to experiment with the roller distance and steam addition
for the recipes to boost the feed quality and production efficiency.
