World-Class Food and Feed Processing Equipment | CFAM Technology

It is hardly surprising that the scope of twin-screw extrusion in the food industry is continually expanding. If it is possible to make a product with a food extruder, it is probably the cheapest, most compact, and most efficient method of making it.

Conventional processing methods typically involve a great deal more time, cost, and equipment. Today, extrusion is a well-established process in the snack industry and plays an important role in the manufacture of pet foods, pasta, snacks, and ready-to-eat cereals. The process involves a combination of several unit operations including cooking, mixing, shearing, forming, shaping, and kneading.

Food extrusion cooking has gained immense popularity over the last two decades for a number of reasons:

• Product Quality• Productivity• Cost• Versatility• Environment-Friendly Classification of Extruders

Based on the operation, extruders are classified into two types:

• Hot extruders• Cold extruders

Based on the type of construction, extruders are also of two types:

• Single screw extruder• Twin screw extruder
