Our Bellaex's Layer Feed Crusher is engineered for layer-feed preparation across corn, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, wheat and sorghum. With selectable single/dual-stage rolls, precise roll-gap control and a stabilized feeding roll, it produces uniform, adjustable particle sizes that lift downstream mixing, conditioning and pelleting efficiency while helping preserve amino acids and vitamins. Six models (≈4–20 tph) let you right-size any plant and cut cost per ton in modern layer feed lines.
Layer feed crusher with selectable single/dual stage, precise roll-gap and uniform feeding roll. Delivers consistent coarse/fine ratios for starter, grower and layer rations, boosting pellet-mill throughput and lowering energy.
Overview
Purpose-built for poultry layer nutrition, the Bellaex Layer Feed Crusher combines differential toothed/serrated rolls with a uniform feeding module to deliver tight, repeatable particle-size distributions at low fines. Three flow-path modes—Bypass 1st, 1st Only, Dual Continuous—enable rapid recipe changeovers without stopping, so you can match target coarse/fine ratios for pre-layer, grower and layer diets.
The process concept “pellet larger first → controlled post-crushing” reduces die restriction, often lifting pellet-mill throughput significantly versus direct pelleting through small die holes, while lowering specific energy and protecting thermally sensitive nutrients. A hinged access door, sampling port and optional digital gap indication make on-line checks fast and maintenance predictable.
Applications: Layer feed plants, integrated feed mills, pre-pelleting optimization, controlled post-crushing after cooling, retrofits to increase pellet-mill tons/hour.
Materials: Corn/maize, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, wheat, sorghum.

Bellaex’s Layer Feed Crusher have Six capacity points from ≈4 to 20 tph with staged roll counts let you scale output and select single or dual-stage crushing as required. See Models for full specs.
Advantages
Bellaex's layer feed crusher applies the “pellet larger first → controlled post-crushing” concept to cut die restriction and motor load. Field reports indicate ~10–20% higher qualified particle rate with composite power savings up to ~76.9% under comparable trial conditions.
Core Advantages
• More tons/hour through the pellet mill with lower kWh/t
• Fewer fines and rework via controlled reduction
• Better protection of heat-sensitive amino acids and vitamins
Selectable single/dual (or triple) stages plus three internal flow modes (Bypass 1st / 1st Only / Dual Continuous) let you match starter, grower and layer targets without prolonged downtime.
Core Advantages
• Fast changeovers with internal diverter flaps
• Precision roll-gap handwheel (optional digital display) for repeatable PSD
• Configurable tooth profiles and architecture to hit coarse/fine ratios
An optimized distribution/feeding device builds a stable bed into the nip and balances pressure across the roll face—ideal for corn in layer rations where coarse fraction supports gizzard development and feed intake.
Core Advantages
• More qualified product; fewer surges, amp spikes and fines
• Consistent PSD that improves downstream mixing/conditioning
• Higher pellet-mill stability thanks to steady, even presentation
Double-layer chilled, centrifugally cast alloy rolls deliver long service life; enclosed housing and sealing keep the plant clean and safe.
Core Advantages
• Long roll life and extended maintenance intervals
• Lower total cost per ton from higher throughput + reduced power and scrap
• Safe, clean operation with guards, E-stop, end-blocking and dust control
Access, inspection and repeatability are built in to minimize downtime and speed recipe resets.
Core Advantages
• Large hinged door, sampling port and sight window for fast checks
• Clear gap scale; optional digital indication for quick recipe repeats
• Accessible bearings and drives for shorter planned maintenance cycles

FAQ
Single-stage uses the primary roll set only; dual-stage runs through both roll sets for a tighter particle size distribution (PSD) with fewer fines. Mode changes are fast via internal flaps.
Yes. It crushes whole corn directly and post-crushes cooled pellets to meet your nutritionist's coarse/fine targets.
Use the handwheel scale (or optional digital gap display) and save gap settings per recipe. A uniform feeding roll plus differential-speed rolls help keep PSD consistent batch to batch.
Pellet through larger die holes, then post-crush to target size—reducing die restriction and motor load for higher tons/hour and lower specific energy than fine pelleting alone.
Rolls are double-layer chilled centrifugal alloy cast iron for high wear resistance; life depends on abrasiveness, magnet protection, and maintenance. A magnetic separator before the nip is recommended; high-intensity magnets are optional. Standard controls are local pushbutton with E-stop; options include PLC/HMI, remote monitoring, digital gap indication, and vibration/temperature sensors. Standard power is 380 V/50 Hz; other voltages/frequencies are available on request.
