Thermal conditioning for improved meal flow and starch digestibility
In feed mills, ensuring the sanitary quality and digestibility of meal products is crucial. Problems such as irregular meal flow, insufficient water content, and poor starch digestibility can impact production efficiency and product quality.
Enhance sanitary quality and digestion
The thermal conditioner by Stolz is designed to address these common challenges in feed milling. Built entirely from stainless steel, this equipment operates at 100% refilling capacity, preventing any steam leakage. It introduces direct steam injection and ensures homogeneous cooking of the meal through a rotor’s blade shearing effect. The unit allows long-duration treatment of up to 6 minutes, which effectively mixes starch and gluten molecules. This process improves meal flow, digestibility, and water content. Additionally, its unique slope angle prevents mixing damage and enables precise filling control. The equipment supports liquid incorporation, enhancing the quality of pellets and reducing energy consumption when connected to a pellet mill. The outlet valve facilitates regular feeding and quick response times, ensuring seamless integration into feedmill processes.
