Custom Grinding

For optimal particle size of ingredients

Why grind ingredients? Simply put: The right particle size of ingredients improves the quality of the final feed or pet food product.

Precise particle reduction can improve product uniformity, texture, digestibility, and other desirable characteristics of ingredients. For food animals, pellet durability and feed efficiency are priorities. For companion animals like pets, integrity and stability of the extruded kibble are key.

Accu-Grind can mill a single ingredient or a mixture of ingredients into ultrafine, fine, medium, or coarse flour particle sizes:

  • Ultrafine — 5/64-inch (0.039 in.)
  • Fine — 3/16-inch (0.1875 in.)
  • Medium — 1/4-inch (0.25 in.)
  • Coarse — 5/8-inch (0.625 in.)
