Food and confectionery twin-screw extruder
In the food and confectionery industry, maintaining consistency and quality during the extrusion process is essential. Traditional methods often struggle to offer flexibility and high throughput, resulting in inefficient operations and potential quality issues for products such as chewing gum, soft candies, and protein bars.
Ensures stable and precise mass flow
The Carugil CSTR is a counter-rotating twin-screw extruder designed to meet the specific demands of processing food and confectionery masses. Constructed with heavy-duty materials and featuring stainless steel contact areas, the CSTR ensures durability and safety. The twin-screw infeed section provides stable infeed, resulting in consistent mass flow. With a water-jacketed extrusion barrel and electronic temperature control, the extruder maintains accurate and even temperature throughout the process. The machine also includes an inverter-controlled variable speed drive for the extrusion screws, allowing for precise control. Additionally, the CSTR supports various filling types such as powder, semi-liquids, and granulates, accommodating a wide range of products.
