Single-screw high shear extruder
In snack production, achieving consistent shape, texture, and density requires precise control of the extrusion process. Variations in raw materials and desired product outcomes can complicate production, demanding equipment capable of high precision and flexibility.
Offers precise control over extrusion parameters
The Lalesse single-screw high shear extruder is designed for a range of capacities from 80 to 300 kg per hour. This extruder adapts easily to different raw materials, shapes, textures, and densities, making it highly versatile. The process is controlled through variable speed settings, feed controls, full water cooling, and different pressure settings for optimal product consistency. Additionally, the extruder features a direct drive system without a V-belt for increased reliability and reduced maintenance. The split sleeve system allows for cost-effective maintenance, and die inserts provide flexibility in product shapes. The extruder’s hollow main shaft enables the quick ejection of the process screw for minimal downtime. Lalesse ensures efficient and accurate extrusion by allowing thorough pre-testing of raw materials and final product conditions.
