Static Animal Feed Mills

A Permanent Feed-Processing System Designed Around Your Farm

B&W Feeds supplies Buschhoff static milling and mixing systems for farms and agricultural businesses across the UK.

Each installation can be designed around the individual business, with options covering ingredient intake, storage, processing, dosing, mixing and the final discharge of finished feed in bulk, bags or pellets.

A permanent on-farm mill can give a business greater control over its ingredients, feed preparation and production schedule. The appropriate layout, capacity and level of automation will depend on the livestock enterprise, available buildings, feed volumes and plans for future growth.

B&W Feeds works alongside Buschhoff to support customers through the planning and installation process, with technical support available from teams in both the UK and Germany.

Why Consider a Buschhoff Static Feed Mill?

A permanent milling and mixing system can be designed around the way your business stores ingredients, prepares rations and handles finished feed.

Depending on the requirements of the farm or agricultural business, a Buschhoff system can include:

• Ingredient intake and transfer equipment.
• Raw-material storage.
• Milling and processing equipment.
• Automated weighing and dosing.
• Mineral and micro-ingredient dosing.
• Mixing systems.
• Computerised controls and recipe management.
• Bulk, bagged or pelleted feed discharge.
• Finished-feed storage and transfer equipment.

Benefits of a Tailored Static Mill

• Greater control over feed preparation: Process selected ingredients on site and prepare feed to an agreed specification.
• Automation options: Automated weighing, dosing and mixing can reduce the amount of routine manual handling required.
• Consistent production: Computerised controls can support repeatable recipes and accurate ingredient inclusion.
• Flexible feed structure: Processing equipment can be selected around the ingredients used and the feed structure required.
• Capacity suited to the business: The system can be specified around current feed volumes, operating patterns and plans for future development.
• Integrated handling: Intake, storage, milling, mixing and discharge can be planned as one connected system.
• Designed around the available site: The proposed layout will take account of existing buildings, storage, access and the space available for installation and maintenance.
• Long-term technical support: B&W Feeds and Buschhoff can provide support through planning, installation, commissioning and the ongoing operation of the equipment.

Buschhoff systems can be configured for pig, poultry, cattle and sheep enterprises, as well as businesses producing specialist, mineral or premixed feeds. The final specification will depend on the ingredients, required feed types, production volumes and level of automation needed.

On farm feed milling & mixing - Tailor-made to the specific to your customer needs and demands.

Feed mills from 1 - 20 tons per hour for pig, poultry, cattle, sheep and more. Moreover, you get smaller production plants for premixes and mineral feed.

We offer a suitable plant for each purpose. Milling & mixing plants with the BHS blower mill are installed especially where low- to medium-level feed volumes are processed. As the blower mill is capable of sucking in the grain from storage bins, it can be installed even where local conditions are problematic.

Planning a Static Feed Mill Project?

A permanent milling and mixing system is a significant investment, so the first step is to understand what the business needs the system to achieve.

To help B&W Feeds begin assessing your requirements, please provide:

• Your farm or business location.
• The livestock or feed types involved.
• The main ingredients you expect to process.
• Your approximate annual feed volume or required production capacity.
• Details of any existing buildings, silos or feed-handling equipment.
• The level of automation you are considering.
• Your preferred project timescale.

B&W Feeds can then discuss the proposed system with you and explore the equipment, layout and next steps that may be appropriate for your business.

The following examples demonstrate how Buschhoff milling and mixing equipment can be configured for different livestock enterprises. Each new system would be designed around the customer's ingredients, required feed types, production capacity, available site and preferred level of automation.
