Industrial drum dryer for extruded snacks
In snack production, achieving the right residual moisture level in extruded products is crucial to ensure quality, texture, and longevity. Traditional drying methods can fail to provide precise control, leading to inconsistent results and potential product spoilage.
Control drying parameters for consistent results
The Drum Drier STT from Hebenstreit is a specialized solution designed for the precise drying of extrudates. It features a rotating drum coupled with a sophisticated heating system that includes options for infrared heating. This system allows for exact control over drying parameters such as heating power, air flow, and rotation speed, all adjustable via the operating panel. The machine’s infrared module ensures direct drying and roasting of products, enhancing flavor and texture. With a heating capacity ranging from 40 to 80 kW and the capability to achieve moisture levels below 1%, this drum dryer is suitable for various snack production processes. It’s particularly effective in processes requiring evenly dried products to maintain high quality and product consistency.
