Pet food food extruder Single-screw

single screw

Product overview
The multifunctional single-screw extruder is built with a modular architecture to address diverse process requirements in pet food and aqua feed production. Configurable capacity, screw speed, torque and pressure options enable adaptation to multiple product types and formulations.

Key benefits

• Modular architecture for flexible use: Process modules can be reconfigured or upgraded to match higher capacities and different production processes.
• Reliable process control: Intelligent recipe memory supports consistent end-product quality and reduces operator and process errors during recipe changes.
• Reduced downtime and improved hygiene: Hygienic design, accessible maintenance points and robust engineering lower cleaning time and support continuous production.

Performance features at a glance
Modular construction and hygienic design allow straightforward upgrades and flexible configurations to meet changing production demands.

Key features

• Two-stage preconditioner: Separates the mixing zone from the retention zone to enable intensive mixing at high screw speeds and gentle retention at low speeds; material inlet is located vertically above the outlet for convenient feeding.
• Feeder screw (transition between preconditioner and extruder): Enforced infeed increases throughput and filling degree, improving running stability and production safety; side access reduces cross-contamination risk during cleaning.
• Configurable modules: Optional modules include density control module, SME Module, extruder end barrel valve and hygienic cutter to adapt to process and product needs.

Other features

• User-friendly automation: Intuitive touchscreen operator interface with safety circuits and automatic emergency shutdown to protect machine, operators and product quality.

Applications

• Pet food extrusion
• Aqua feed extrusion

Services & trainings
Services, maintenance and operator training are available to support safe operation, process optimisation and rapid recipe changes.
