Alfalfa Pellet Mill with PTO 260mm – MKFD260P
The MKFD260P pellet mill with PTO drive is the perfect solution for small and medium farms seeking to convert alfalfa and other forages into a nutritious, compact, and easy-to-store feed. With its 260 mm die, it provides a balanced mix of production capacity, mobility, and low power requirement, operating directly from the tractor without electricity.
Practical and Efficient Production
This model delivers reliable performance for producers seeking energy independence and consistent results:
- Capacity of 400 to 600 kg/h of alfalfa pellets and forage blends.
- Requires only 35 HP PTO power, making it accessible for most medium-sized tractors.
- Continuous operation throughout the day, ideal for meeting the demands of family farms or pellet-selling businesses.
Pellet compaction is achieved by friction, reaching temperatures of 70–80 °C that activate the forage's natural binder, producing firm and stable pellets.
Forage Preparation
To ensure high-quality pellets, the material must be properly conditioned:
- Ideal moisture: between 9% and 14%.
- Sun-dried forage: most recommended for pelleting.
- Avoid freshly cut green grass due to excess moisture.
- Pre-grinding: particle size should be one millimeter less than the desired pellet diameter (e.g., 7 mm grind for 8 mm pellets).
Proper conditioning protects the machine and ensures homogeneous pellets with excellent visual appearance.
Alfalfa-Enriched Blends
The MKFD260P not only produces pure alfalfa pellets, but also allows the production of balanced diets by adding up to 40% concentrates.
Examples of compatible ingredients:
- Corn, oats, or soybeans.
- Mineral salts and shells.
- Bone meal and protein supplements.
- Vitamin premixes.
To ensure mixture homogeneity, the use of a horizontal mixer is recommended before pelleting.
Robust and Durable Construction
- High-strength modular cast chassis.
- Rollers and dies made of hardened SAE steel, designed for long working hours.
