C-Cu type animal feed pellet mills

• Proven features and benefits, such as high capacity, flexible production, high automation level, low maintenance costs, high feed quality and easy and safe operation, distinguish the C and CU basic.
• Range:
  • C500, C600, C750, C900, C900XL;
  • CU750 Basic, CU900 Basic and CU900XL Basic.

The next generation in pellet mills

• Next to the proven C pellet mill range Van Aarsen recently introduced the next generation CU pellet mill range.
• The CU pellet mills are available in a Basic, Dynamic and Dynamic Plus version, featuring the latest developments in the field of pelleting.

Eliminate contamination of feed with the revolutionary closed-loop oil lubrication system!

• In conventional pellet mills, the roller bearings (and main bearings) are lubricated with a continuous flow of grease.
• This grease eventually ends up in the feed, and although mainly food grade grease is used, this is identified as one of the main causes of contamination with ‘foreign materials’ in the feed mill.
• Although marked as ‘food grade’, these lubricants (NSF H1) however may not be present in unlimited amounts, but only in 1-10 ppm depending on the composition of the lubricant, and only if technically unavoidable.
• With the CU Dynamic Plus pellet mill, Van Aarsen introduces a revolutionary pellet mill, eliminating all the disadvantages of grease lubrication.
• The roller bearings and main bearings are lubricated with a fully monitored closed-loop oil lubrication system, supplying the most heavily loaded bearings with the best lubrication that is technically possible.
• With this closed-loop system, there is no contamination of the feed, and no consumption of costly lubricants, reducing the lubrication costs to less than 10% of the costs for a comparable grease lubricated pellet mill.

• The CU Dynamic pellet mills are fitted with motor-operated roller adjustment with active rollerslip control.
• The robust designed motor-operated roller adjustment enables the operator to easily choose the desired roller distance to the die, even when the pellet mill is in full operation.
• Together with the intelligent software, this system offers great benefits in pellet mill operation and maintenance requirement planning.
• One of these benefits is the increase of the life of the die and rollers up to 30%.
• By linking the operation of the dosing screw to the roller distance, the rollers will retract when the pellet mill is not producing.
• Furthermore, the system is equipped with a die cleaning mode, enabling the operator to clean the die after a batch.
• This will also provide a quick start-up of the pellet mill after a standstill, because the product doesn’t get the opportunity to cake onto the die.
• The active rollerslip control is an intelligent system designed to optimize the pellet mill production rate.
• This system detects rollerslip and activates the system to automatically resolve the slip if desired, reducing the downtime.
