Corn Puffed Extruder Machine-manufacture,factory,supplier from China

Puffed food appeared in the market in the 1960s. Later, it quickly became popular in various countries because of its unique taste, simple eating and various patterns. It has long occupied the most frequently purchased snack types with chocolate, wafers and other foods.However, the long-term sales advertisements and puffed food have left us with a stereotyped image. Recently, many consumers said that when they saw the product category as "oil-containing puffed food", they were very worried about whether it was an unhealthy snack.

Directly puffed food is generally required to be dried after extrusion processing. The moisture content of the dough in the extruder is 15%~20%. The product is then dried to reduce the moisture content to 2% to 3% to create the environment needed for a crunchy texture and stable shelf life. Due to the low density of the product, the drying time is usually very short, so it should be carried out in a warm warehouse.Coatings to produce direct-expanded products Extruded and dried products are finally sprayed with oils and seasonings.

The screw extruder was first used in the plastics industry, and its theoretical research started earlier, forming a variety of mathematical models used to describe the basic principles of flow and heat transfer in the extrusion process, using these models to achieve accurate extrusion machine simulation Design. The application of extrusion technology in the food industry is slightly later than that in the plastics industry, which is mainly due to the complexity of food raw materials.

Extruder belongs to a kind of equipment for processing puffed food. It is a kind of equipment for processing puffed food, such as processing rice, corn, soybean, wheat, etc., in daily life.

Working Principle of Twin Screw ExtrusionAfter a certain amount of pulverization, the material with a certain water content is fed into the extruder cavity, so that the material will undergo mixing, shearing, A series of complex continuous processes such as melting, curing and sterilization. Because there is a certain air pressure difference inside and outside the barrel, the moment the material is extruded, the external pressure it is subjected to is reduced to normal pressure, so that the material is instantly puffed.

Indirect puffed snack foods are also known as "third generation snack foods". The production of these foods has a common characteristic: they are not puffed directly after coming out of the extruder template. Additional processing steps are required to give it the appearance or texture, which generally includes frying or hot air puffing processes to remove moisture to obtain the final texture.

For extruder equipment, the model specifications of extruder equipment are classified according to the diameter of the screw. For the sake of explanation, plastic is used as an example below, but the same is true for food extruders.That is to say, the screw diameter of the extruder equipment is the model specification of the extruder equipment. For example, the screw diameter of the 90-type extruder equipment is 90mm.

Screw extruder is mainly used in the production of starch extruded food, protein extruded food and extruded feed in the food industry, and can also be used as a special chemical or biochemical reactor.Starch puffed foodThe starch in the grain will gelatinize (αize) under the high temperature and pressure of the extruder. The results showed that the degree of starch αization was more than 98% and the crude fat decreased by 60% or even disappeared after the puffed corn flour. Water solubility increased by more than 40%. Therefore, extruder can replace roller dryer to produce gelatinized starch.

Feed extruder is a single screw extruder. Mainly used for food puffing, livestock feed or used for puffing single raw materials, but also as a plant oil and drinking wine production of raw materials in the pre-place. Twin-screw extruding extruder, mainly used for the production and processing of high-grade aquatic products, pet materials, especially the processing of viscous materials.What are its characteristics?1.

The extruder has the functions of compression, mixing, kneading, melting, puffing and molding. The cavity of the extruder can be divided into 3-5 zones. Each zone can be heated by steam or electricity, or by extrusion friction, so as to achieve the purpose of cooking the material. Under the action of high temperature and high pressure in the cavity, the starch Gelatinization, protein denaturation. When the material passes through each zone of the extruder cavity, soluble flavor substances and pigments can be injected into the material through the cavity under high pressure.
