Twin screw extruder in food processing is suitable for the production of various extruded foods, including snack food, textured vegetable protein, nutritional powder, biodegradable packaging materials, starch gelatinization, rice assembling (fortified rice, nutritional rice analog, instant rice), pet feed, aquatic feed, etc.

Twin screw food extruder has greater shear force and working temperature than single screw extruder, so they have better puffing capabilities and are suitable for small-humidity extrusion processes.

Its characteristics of twin screw food extruder are as follows:

Suitable for various main material: corn, wheat, rice, millet, small adding ratio of starch, etc.

Operation and maintenance are simple: The whole extruder is a modular structure, which performs feeding, extrusion, heating, cooling, forming, cutting, water injection and other processes respectively.

High quality: Each module and detail has been strictly designed, with the greatest investment in the use of materials, carrying meticulous craftmanship in processing accuracy. Therefore, the interconnection and cooperation among all parts are tight and scientific, and the twin screw extruder overall operation is stable, accurate, high in efficiency and low in energy consumption.

 Direct connection between motor and gear box which make higher conduction efficiency of driven force and higher extrusion capacity.
