Abstract | ||||
The main objective of this, research was to manufacture and evaluate compatable unit to produce a rabbit feed pellets including mixing and pelleting the formula in one step. The optimum results of this unit were 427.87 kg/h production rate , 37.96kW.h/ton energy, requirements , 88.29% mixing efficiency , 0.671gm /cm3 bulk density , 93.21% pellet durability , 49.01N hardiness, and 566.36 die L/D ratio of 5.5:1, 3.5 min of mixing retention time, and rollers teeth width of 10 mm and LE/ton cost using residues formulation including black seed meal. | ||||
