The main forgings for food and feed machinery are divided into three categories based on their functions:
Transmission components (gears, transmission shafts): These transmit power for the equipment and ensure stable operation;
Load-bearing components (machine bases, bearing housings): These support the overall structure of the machinery and distribute loads;
Operational components (crusher hammer blades, pellet mill pressure rollers): These directly contact raw materials to complete processes such as crushing and pelletizing.
In production, compliant materials such as wear-resistant stainless steel are carefully selected. The forgings undergo forging strengthening, precision machining, and sanitary-grade polishing, combined with non-destructive testing, to meet food and feed safety standards.
In terms of services, customized design is provided to adapt to different machine models, and after-sales services include maintenance guidance. The advantages lie in high strength and wear resistance: the forgings can withstand high-frequency operations, reduce downtime, and contribute to efficient and compliant production in the food and feed industry.
Key Term Explanations (Consistent with Industry Norms)
Sanitary-grade polishing: A surface treatment process that achieves a smooth, easy-to-clean finish (typically with a surface roughness of Ra ≤ 0.8 μm), preventing material residue and bacterial growth, which is mandatory for food/feed machinery components;
Pellet mill pressure rollers: Core components of feed pellet mills that compress crushed raw materials into uniform pellets through extrusion, requiring both wear resistance and compliance with food contact material standards;
Wear-resistant stainless steel: Common grades include 304, 316L, and 410, which balance corrosion resistance (to resist moisture in raw materials) and wear resistance (to withstand friction from raw material processing).

View MoreIn the food and animal feed processing industries, equipment is pushed to its limits by 24/7 high-frequency operation and the abrasive nature of raw grains and ingredients. The challenge is twofold: components must possess the mechanical strength to prevent structural failure while meeting stringent hygiene and safety standards to prevent contamination.
To address these critical needs, Food and Feed Machinery Forgings are engineered to be the high-performance heart of processing lines. ACE Group utilizes advanced forging strengthening and sanitary-grade polishing to produce components that don't just last longer—they ensure a cleaner, more compliant production environment.
We categorize our food-grade forgings into three functional pillars. By selecting specific alloys like wear-resistant stainless steel, ACE Group optimizes each part for its specific role in the production cycle.
Gears and transmission shafts are responsible for the constant, synchronized movement of the processing line. Forging ensures a dense, uniform internal structure, allowing these parts to handle high-torque start-ups without fatigue.
Machine bases and bearing housings maintain the precise alignment required for high-speed rotation. Forged housings offer superior vibration damping and dimensional stability compared to cast alternatives.
Pellet mill pressure rollers and crusher hammer blades are the frontline of production. These parts endure extreme friction and compression. Our specialized heat treatment ensures these components maintain their edge and shape under pressure.

ACE Group’s integrated production model is uniquely suited to the food and feed sector, where precision and purity are paramount.
Forging & Material Science: At Jiangsu ACE Energy Technology, we forge high-grade stainless steel to refine grain structure. This process makes our pellet mill pressure rollers significantly more resistant to surface pitting than standard machined bars.
Sanitary Finishing: Our precision machining and polishing workshops ensure that every operational component meets the "easy-to-clean" mandate. By achieving a surface roughness of Ra ≤ 0.8 μm, we help our clients pass the most rigorous food safety audits.
Corrosion Protection: For non-contact external parts, Yancheng ACE Surface Treatment provides a 400μm specialized powder coating that protects the machinery from the aggressive cleaning chemicals used in food plants.
