Alfalfa Pellet Mill with PTO Drive 400mm – MKFD400P

The MKFD400P pellet mill with PTO drive is designed for producers seeking energy independence, versatility, and high performance in the production of alfalfa pellets, pasture, and forage blends. With its 400 mm diameter die, it combines practicality and power, allowing you to turn forage into a nutritious, easy-to-store feed without relying on electricity.


Practical and adaptable operation

This model connects directly to the tractor's PTO, making it the ideal choice for rural areas without reliable access to electricity. Simply attach it to the tractor's shaft to start pellet production immediately, with no need for electrical panels, generators, or additional installations.


Efficient and continuous production

The MKFD400P delivers outstanding performance:

  • Capacity of 800 to 1,040 kg/h, ideal for small and medium producers.
  • Continuous operation throughout the day without interruptions.
  • Versatility in formulations, as it can process pure alfalfa or blends with other ingredients.

Thanks to friction-based compaction, the machine reaches the optimal temperature (70–80 °C) to activate the natural binder in the forage, producing consistent, high-quality pellets.


Material preparation

To ensure optimal pellets, the raw material must be properly conditioned:

  • Ideal moisture: between 9% and 14%.
  • Dry forage: similar to that used for baling.
  • Pre-grinding: fiber should be ground one millimeter smaller than the desired pellet diameter (e.g., 7 mm grind for 8 mm pellets).

If the material is too dry, it can be rehydrated with a small percentage of water to reach the recommended level.


Balanced diets with alfalfa

In addition to pure alfalfa pellets, the machine allows you to mix up to 40% concentrates and other inputs, producing balanced feeds with higher nutritional value.

Examples of compatible ingredients:

  • Corn, oats, or soybeans.
  • Vitamin premixes.
  • Salts and minerals.
  • Bone meal and protein supplements.

With a horizontal mixer, the producer can homogenize the formula before pelleting, maximizing the quality of the final product.


Robust and durable construction

  • High-strength modular cast iron frame.
  • Rollers and dies made of hardened SAE steel, designed for long working hours.
  • Baked-on paint with anti-corrosion treatment, protecting the equipment in demanding environments.

The MKFD400P is built to serve the producer for many years, with minimal maintenance.


Easy maintenance

The equipment is designed so the user can perform basic service quickly and economically:

  • Regular greasing of bearings.
  • Oil change in the gearbox once a year.

It also includes a tool kit and manual grease gun, making preventive maintenance tasks easier.
