Screen changer for extrusion lines
In extrusion processes, maintaining product quality and preventing equipment downtime are crucial. Unwanted solid particles can clog the die, leading to production inefficiencies and compromised product quality.
Ensure consistent quality and safety in extrusion
The Screen Changer from Extrufood is an essential component designed to enhance the performance and reliability of extrusion lines. It filters out solid particles that could clog the die, ensuring the extruded product remains of high quality. A key feature includes a start-up valve that regulates pressure buildup for added safety. The screen changer can be locked in a central position—without a screen—allowing easy checking and reworking of the extruded mass for texture and consistency. This central position also serves as a quick and secure method to prevent damage to downstream equipment, effectively reducing downtime. Extrufood, under the Extrugroup brand, is recognized for their innovative and customized solutions in extrusion technology, serving the confectionery, pet food, and plastics industries.
