MIKIM80 200~300kg/h Dry Type Floating Fish Feed Pellet Making Machine Test

May 15, 2026

The MIKIM80 is a medium-capacity dry type floating fish food pellet making machine designed for entrepreneurs and mid-sized fish farms. With an output of 200–300 kg/h , it bridges the gap between small-scale production and industrial manufacturing, offering high-quality floating feed without the need for an expensive steam boiler.

Quick Spec Summary:

Model: MIKIM80
Capacity: 200-300 kg/h
Type: dry type floating fish food pellet maker machine (Mechanical Friction)
Best For: Floating Fish Feed, Cat Food, Dog Food
Power Efficiency: Optimized motor for 24/7 stable output

1. Key Features of the MIKIM80 Dry-Type Fish Feed Extruder

Why is the MIKIM80 a bestseller for aquatic and pet food startups?

No Steam Boiler Required

The MIKIM80 utilizes mechanical friction to generate the heat (120°C-150°C) needed for starch gelatinization. This significantly reduces your initial investment (CAPEX) and saves floor space.

Multi-Functional Die System

By simply changing the die (mold) and adjusting the cutter speed, the MIKIM80 can produce:

Fish Feed: 1mm to 12mm pellets (Floating & Sinking).
Pet Food: Bone, heart, and triangle-shaped kibble for dogs and cats.

Superior Water Stability

Our factory tests confirm that pellets produced by the MIKIM80 maintain their structural integrity in water for 12–24 hours, ensuring high nutrient absorption and zero water pollution.

2. MIKIM80 Factory Test Run: Verified Performance

Before delivery, every MIKIM80 unit undergoes a rigorous 3-step factory test to ensure customer satisfaction.

Step 1: Screw & Motor Load Test

We test the main motor stability and screw rotation under full load to ensure the 200-300kg/h capacity is met consistently without overheating.

Step 2: Expansion (Puffing) Rate Analysis

We measure the expansion ratio of the pellets. A high-quality floating pellet should be porous and smooth. The MIKIM80 achieves a uniform expansion rate, ensuring every pellet floats.

Step 3: Floating Duration Check

Sample pellets are placed in a water tank. We guarantee a 100% floating rate for species like Tilapia and Catfish, essential for modern aquaculture management.

3. Technical Comparison: Why Choose MIKIM80?

4. FAQ:

Does the MIKIM80 require a professional technician to install?

No. The MIKIM80 is designed for "plug-and-play" operation. Because it is a Dry Type floating Fish Feed pellet making machine, it doesn't have complex steam piping. We provide a detailed manual and video guide, allowing most users to start production within 2 hours of assembly.

Can I make cat food and fish feed with the same MIKIM80 Dry Type Fish Feed pellet maker machine?

Yes. This is one of the machine's biggest advantages. You only need to change the feed formula and the die mold. For example, you can produce 2mm floating tilapia feed in the morning and 5mm dog kibble in the afternoon.

How much electricity does the MIKIM80 consume per ton?

The MIKIM80 is optimized for energy efficiency. While Dry Type fish feed pellet extruder machines use more electricity than wet ones per ton, the total energy cost is lower because you don't pay for boiler fuel (gas, coal, or electricity for steam).

What are the wear parts for the MIKIM80, and how long do they last?

The main wear parts are the screw and the screw sleeve. Depending on the abrasiveness of your formula, they typically last for 400–600 tons of production. We recommend keeping one spare set in stock to avoid downtime.

Why choose 200-300kg/h capacity instead of a smaller 40kg/h model?

The 200-300kg/h range is the ROI "sweet spot." It provides enough output to sell to local neighbors or markets, whereas smaller machines (40-60kg/h) are usually only enough for personal farm use.

5. Conclusion: Is the MIKIM80 Right for You?

The MIKIM80 200-300kg/h Dry Type floating fish feed pellet maker machine is the perfect solution for those who need professional-grade feed but want to avoid the complexity of steam-based systems. It is reliable, versatile, and proven in hundreds of factory test runs.
