Die-Cut Pellets
Benefits
Mixer
Snack Pellets are made using different raw materials, such as cereals(wheat, corn, rice), legumes(chickpeas, lentils), tubers(potatoes, tapioca), fibersfrom vegetables and cereals… These raw materials, usually in the form of flour, are pre-mixed in the mixer according to the desired product.
Stainless steel mixer, provided with hopper to collect the mixed product, extraction and dosing auger, vibrating cleaner and conveyor of the product from the Extruder, all integrated in the production line control system.
Ladders, railings and door to easily access for cleaning.
Benefits
Cooker Extruder
The Cooker-Extruder is used to mix raw materials with water and treat them both thermally and mechanically to achieve the molecular structural changeneeded to correctly transform the dough into pellets.
Possibility to mix the product to be extruded under Full Vacuum to improve the characteristics of the pellets according to the raw materials used.
The main features of this machine are: great production flexibility for different types of mix, cylinder and extrusion screw divided into several sections to allow the correct technological treatment, cooking section controlled with high-temperature thermal fluid.
Other features are: effective control of the temperatures by means of modulating valves and circulation pumps with feedback according to the actual temperature of the product being baked, ease of management via PC and PLC with User Friendly SCADA,ease of cleaning and maintenance with motorized trolley for screw extraction and hoist for lifting the dies.
Benefits
Extruder Formulator
The Extruder-former has the task of continuing the forming treatment of pellets produced with challenging mixtures (containing grains such as corn, wheat, rice) that arrive from the Extruder-former. The Forming Extruder can also be used individually for potato products.
Ability to mix the product to be extruded under Total Vacuum to improve the characteristics of the pellets produced depending on the raw materials used.
Other features are: effective control of the temperatures by means of modulating valves and circulation pumps with feedback according to the actual temperature of the product being baked, ease of management via PC and PLC with User Friendly SCADA, ease of cleaning and maintenance with motorized trolley for screw extraction and hoist for lifting the dies.
Specially designed cutter to produce all types of die-cut products, including shapes that need Cone Cutter or Flat Cutter.
Benefits
Shaker and pre-drying unit
The shaker and pre-drying unit represents an important technological phase when producing Pellets, since it guarantees a correct pre-drying of the pellets just extruded, thus preventing them from sticking to each other.
The machine is made of vibrating stainless steel trays with variable vibratingfrequency,robust structure, fans, air extractors and heat exchangers that are properly sized and have high efficiency, for a correct pre-drying of the product.
Easily removable insulating panels for thorough cleaning, maintenanceand sanificationof the machine.
Benefits
TDU technology Dryer
The dryer is used to dry the pellets homogeneously so as to guarantee a high-quality productin the following processing phases (expansion by means of fryers, toasters, etc..).
High-temperature drying (TDU-HT technology) with ventilation and tempering with light touch and continuous passage.
High versatility and efficiency in drying different sizes of Pellets. The dryer features an energy re-use system during the various stages of drying, which entails energy saving and production costs reduction.
Correctly sized motor reducer, extractors, fans, heat exchangers, pumps, proportioning valves, and continuously monitoring of the drying parameters through high-quality temperature and humidity sensors. Frame and panels are entirely made of Stainless Steel.
Benefits
High-efficiency Cooler
The cooler is used to bring the product to room temperature to ensure pellets stability after some time.
High efficiency with dewpoint control to ensure no condensation and allow a correct stabilization of the product output.
Automatic product temperature and humidity control.
Stainless steel insulating panels that can be easily removed from the frame, for thorough cleaning, maintenanceand sanitizationof the machine.
