Lucerne Pellet Machine
Professional Lucerne Pelletizing Solution
Lucerne is a high-quality forage grass used in animal feed production. Conventional pelletizing often leads to equipment blockages, component wear, and unstable production capacity. Our lucerne pelletizer machine has been scientifically improved to consistently produce high-quality pellets.
This equipment can process a wide variety of lucerne materials, whether fresh or dried. With this machine, you can flexibly adjust your pelletizing formulations. It accommodates various ingredient ratios. Standard lucerne pellet sizes are 6 mm, 8 mm, and 10 mm. This lucerne pellet machine can produce lucerne pellets ranging from 4 to 12 mm.
It can produce a wide variety of feed types, including feed for livestock such as cattle, horses, and sheep, as well as specialized animal feed. If you need to produce biomass fuel or organic fertilizer pellets, this equipment is equally capable. It is suitable for farms, ranches, and feed plants of all sizes. We also provide complete lucerne pellet production equipment for the entire process, from raw material processing to pellet packaging.

lucerne pellet production line
We offer not only pellet machines but also complete lucerne pellet production line. This solution can meet production capacity requirements ranging from 0.3 to 30 T/H and beyond. We provide customized equipment, tailored production processes, and turnkey solutions to meet the needs of scaled lucerne pellet production.
01
Crushing
High-fiber lucerne is difficult to pelletize directly. We offer a fine-crushing process. This process can incorporate a bale breaker and a hammer mill to crush the raw material to a particle size of 3–5 mm. This crushing process improves the pellet formation rate.
02
drying
The ideal moisture content of the raw material is approximately 15–18%. This process stage is used to dry fresh lucerne with high moisture content. We offer high-capacity hay dryer. It dries the lucerne through rotation and hot-air circulation, and the drying time is adjustable.
03
Pelletizing
The lucerne pellet machine conditions materials using high-temperature steam. It then produces dense, well-formed lucerne pellets using dual rollers and an innovative ring die. Pellet size can be adjusted by replacing the ring die or adjusting the blades.
04
Cooling
This step is used to rapidly cool the pellets in order to set their shape. Our cooling system ensures that the pellets are cooled without compromising their structural integrity. This facilitates packaging and transportation.
05
Screening
This section can screen three types of pellet product to meet requirements for different pellet sizes. The excess material removed during screening can undergo secondary pelletization, thereby reducing costs.
06
Packaging
It is suitable for rapid pellet weighing and packaging requirements. Our highly automated packaging scales will reduce your labor costs and pellet loss while ensuring consistent packaging quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Based on our experience serving customers worldwide, we have compiled the following answers regarding this lucerne pellet machine. These include information on the equipment’s suitability, configuration options, and selection recommendations. If you have any questions about this pelletizer, please feel free to contact us at any time.
What processing is required for lucerne before enters the lucerne pellet mill?
+
To achieve optimal pelletizing results, lucerne must meet appropriate particle size and moisture content requirements. The ideal particle size is within 3–5 mm, and the moisture content should be around 15–18%.
Lucerne that does not meet these standards is prone to issues such as difficulty in forming pellets, equipment clogging, and poor product quality. Therefore, fresh lucerne must undergo crushing and drying before pelletizing.
Why use the lucerne pellets machine to produce pellets?
+
This equipment is a ring-die pellet mill that delivers higher output per unit and reduces production costs per unit. Pelletized lucerne is easy to package, transport, and store. For livestock farmers, it reduces feed costs and optimizes feeding results. For pellet manufacturers, it increases product value, enhances product quality, and improves return on investment.
Which countries and regions is the lucerne pellet machine suitable for?
+
This equipment can be used in countries and regions worldwide, particularly those rich in lucerne and other forage resources. Customers for this equipment are primarily from Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, Canada, the United States, and other regions. They include livestock farms, forage processors, and forage pellet manufacturers.
How to make lucerne pellets?
+
Before pelletizing, lucerne must be ground to the appropriate size and dried to the correct moisture content. Properly processed lucerne powder can be compressed into uniformly sized pellets using a high-efficiency pelletizer.
The pellets emerge from the pelletizer at a high temperature. Subsequent cooling stabilizes their structure and makes them easier to store. If standardization of the pellets is a priority, it is recommended to include screening and packaging stages in the production line. These steps ensure consistent pellet specifications and enable standardized weighing and packaging. (View YouTube)
