puffed food extruder-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.

Extruder is the key of extruding technology. Extrusion processing technology as an economical and practical new processing method is widely used in food production, and has been rapidly developed. Extrusion processing mainly by an extruder step to complete the raw material mixing, curing, crushing, sterilization, pre-drying, molding and other processes, to make puffed, organized products or not puffed products.

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.

At present, European and American countries have become leaders in the research on cereal breakfast food. Countries have carried out research based on local eating habits and tastes of groups to form a system of cereal breakfast food products tailored to local conditions. The extrusion technology in my country is mainly concentrated in the field of puffed food and tissue protein, and the research on the production of cereal breakfast food by extrusion technology is relatively weak, and it can be said that it is still in its infancy.

The twin-screw extruder uses twin-screws to extrude and expand materials. Combining our rich experience in the research and development of puffed food machinery for many years, we can produce puffed food equipment suitable for my country's national conditions.

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.

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.

Extrusion technology, as an economical and efficient processing method, has been widely used in food and feed industry in recent years. The twin screw extruder has incomparable advantages over the single screw extruder. Its advantages such as wide processing range, high curing, strong self-cleaning ability and stable operation control are gradually recognized by everyone. For the food industry with high requirements, these advantages of twin screw extruder can be better played.

The puffed foods such as potato chips, french fries, etc. that we usually see are produced by the puffed food extruder. After a series of operation procedures, the delicious food is presented in front of us.

When operating a twin-screw extruder, it should be maintained on time. The maintenance process is carried out after the twin-screw extruder runs continuously for 2500-5000h and shuts down. The screw is extracted to inspect, measure and identify the wear condition of the most critical components, replace the components that have reached the specified wear limit as soon as possible, and repair the damaged components . The maintenance standard of the reducer of the twin-screw extruder is the same as that of the ordinary standard reducer.
