Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 11:03am On Dec 08, 2020 |
bilag17:the machine is 60kg/hr, how do I get this form M or how will I access a Chinese agent that’ll ship directly to Nigeria for me to pick up at their warehouse, seems you’ve been doing this a lot |

mfm04622:are you saying Nigerian power supply can contain the engine ? |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by bilag17(m): 1:01pm On Dec 08, 2020 |
Rik500k: Source for a Chinese supplier, and use your company name to raise Form M from your bank. I had some sales proposals of the machine two years ago, but can't lay my hands on them at the moment. Get the Technical Specifications of the machine you want to buy very clear. Consideration should be for the power to run the machine. For a 60kg/ hr extruder, main power is 11kw, runs on 3-phase. You'll need a diesel generator of at least 30 Kva, taking into consideration the starting current. You also need pulverized / hammer mill, mixer and dryer, to support the extruder. |

Rik500k: No matter the capacity of your machine, as long as there is power, our power supply will take care of the machine! You are really underrating this country! What machines are you talking about when we have steel rolling companies. Are manufacturing companies complaining about the quality of power supply? What they complain about is quantity, not quality 1 Like |

bilag17:how do I source for this Chinese supplier? Given I saw the post on Aliexpress, how do I implore the services of an agent since it’s a e-commerce platform, I don’t really plan on making use of diesel, I plan on getting On getting the one that’s electrically powered, is there any disadvantage with this ? The hammer mill, mixer and dryer I can source for them locally ? From what I saw in a mini video, the machine makes the feed dried already, little sunshine exposure will do the rest drying, I may not need the dryer. What’s the hammer mill used for? Can I mix manually in place of the mixer, I’m not marking the feeds for sale it’s just for my farm 1 Like |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 2:53pm On Dec 08, 2020 |
mfm04622:No I don’t doubt the capacity of our great nation, just trying to be careful so I won’t lose the little I have. How do I get that machine down to Nigeria, this is my first time importing such machinery, the locally fabricated ones are not to be trusted |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by mfm04622: 5:37pm On Dec 08, 2020 |
Rik500k: I have no experience with importation. Someone said the machine need 11 KVA. That mean you should be thinking of installing an 11 KVA transformer for the factory! In fact, at that level, you need an electrical engineer to design the power aspect of your factory. No be small thing you want start so, so your plans have to be top notch. 1 Like |

Rik500k: If you don't have a dryer, what will happen during rainy season? If you are not using a mixer, how do you ensure the micronutrients are throughly mixed? The hammer mill is used to mill, that is grind the ingredients |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by bilag17(m): 11:36pm On Dec 09, 2020 |
Rik500k: Initially, I thought a single phase extruder should run easily on the country's national grid. I didn't factor fluctuations, and voltage below the required 220 volts. In reality, couldn't run the machine until I got a diesel generator, after wasting money on a petrol generator of 10 kva, which couldn't drive the machine without load. If you want the extruder, decide on the Technical Specifications, taking into consideration, the main power, production capacity. Minimum main power for single phase being 5.5kw , for a 30/40kg / hr machine . Next is 11kw, 3 phase, for 60kg/hr , and so on. Check the supply voltage in your farm location to know if you can run the machine on national grid, otherwise it will be frustrating, having the machine on the ground, and not being able to run it. Check Alibaba, contact the suppliers , request for machine technical specifications and price, including freight to Nigeria. If you're satisfied with the Technical Specifications, request for a pro forma Invoice, which you'll take to your bank to raise a Form M . 1 Like 1 Share |

Rik500k: The entire process is cumbersome without the required ancillary machinery. You can always find a way about it, and move on. |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 5:26am On Dec 12, 2020 |
mfm04622:i have a diesel powered grinder that was locally fabricated. The extruder makes the feed dry already like once the pellets are produced they can float asap. The mixer is just the little problem cos cash is not really at hand I might opt for manual mixing then I think the extruder setup comes with a mixer |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 5:28am On Dec 12, 2020 |
mfm04622:transformer ? For real ? Ha it hasn’t gotten to that point, it’s going to be hectic if it comes to that, I’ll try and get the specifications in the morning |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 5:33am On Dec 12, 2020 |
bilag17:very Insightful and carefully explained, j wouldn’t have even considered power consumption, wow would have jumped in just like that, actually I wanted to go for the 60-80kg per hr, so our national grid can’t handle the power consumption of 11kw. I understand there are diesel powered ones, do you think they should be better when you think of power consumption |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by amba2017: 6:46am On Dec 12, 2020 |
Rik500k:The machine is powered with 3 phase electric motor, if your house/farm is single phase then it will not work except you buy 3 Generator |

Rik500k: If your equipment need 11KV power supply, that is high voltage. E don pass the level of calling electrician to connect things for you ooo |
Re: Hidden Truths About Catfish Business!!! by Rik500k(m): 11:19am On Dec 12, 2020 |
mfm04622:hold on I think it is 5.5kw, for the 30-40kg and 11kw for the 60-80kg. I guess 11kw and 11kv aren’t the same right. 11kw can be contained with our national grid right |

Rik500k: You are right. 11 Kv is different from 11Kw. |

bro you really need a total breakdown of everything before thinking about smoking fishes yourself..... fish feed alone might gulps millions depending on how you stock.... find a consultant first.... and it doest make sense if you have 1million and you want to dig ponds from the 1 million AptSpeaker: |
