Grinding is a critical role in the feed manufacturing process. Ingredients are passed through a grinder for several reasons. A few of these reasons are that clumps and large fragments are reduced in size, some moisture is removed due to aeration, and additives such as antioxidants may be combined; making it easier to handle the ingredients. The grating of ingredients also improves feed digestibility, mixing properties, pelletability, and increases the bulk mass of some components. Many types of manual and mechanical operations involving impact, attrition, and cutting help accomplish grinding.
