Twin screw extruder is composed of two high-torque screws which are meshing with each other and rotating in the same direction. Since the design range of screw and cylinder is wide, the outline and process functions of various screws can be set according to the process requirements. Therefore, the twin screw extruder can ensure transportation, compression, mixing, cooking, shearing, heating, cooling, pumping and forming with high strength of flexibility. The purpose of extrusion processing is to transform the viscosity polymer medium through physical and chemical changes by precise control of processing conditions, and produce high quality structured products. The new generation of twin screw extruder adopts the latest modular design concept, realizing the multi-purpose of the extrusion system and perfectly connecting with the upstream and downstream supporting equipment. The intelligent control system can realize the flexibility and visualization of adjusting different production process parameters according to different production process requirements. It can be widely used in many fields of the food industry and is an ideal choice for processing breakfast cereal, snack food, food raw materials, modified starch, pet food and so on.
Equipment Introduction
After adding water and steam to the pre-conditioner for preliminary pre-gelatinization, the mixed material directly enters the extrusion sleeve from the feeding port; transmission, mixing, shearing, cooking, high temperature and high pressure are generated by co-rotation of the twin-screw; After extrusion in the die hole, the pressure suddenly drops to normal pressure, the water evaporates rapidly, and the product expands accordingly; the material is fixed and formed.
1) Influence of material composition on extrusion quality
Fat content: In food extrusion puffing, the puffing degree of the product increases with the increase of fat content.
Protein content: Raw materials with higher protein content tend to puff less when extruded
Starch content: 70% of the material used for extrusion is starch, and the gelatinization of starch in the extrusion process is a gelatinization process in a low moisture state. In this process, starch gelatinization degree is closely related to screw speed, temperature and moisture content.
2) The influence of moisture on the extrusion quality: 5-12%
3) Screw rotation speed: The higher the rotation speed, the higher the temperature, the lower the residence time, the lower the torque, the higher the puffing degree, and the lighter the color of the product.
4) Feeding amount: In the extrusion process, different molds require different feeding amounts. When using the same mold, under the condition that other conditions remain unchanged, the feeding amount increases, the pressure increases, the puffing degree decreases, and the color becomes darker, which affects the taste and texture of the product.
