100-1200kg/h Food Extruder for Corn Chips Snack Production

Product Introduction for Food Extruder

The 100–1200kg/h food extruder is an industrial twin-screw extrusion machine designed for the processing of grain-based snacks and cereal products. Built with durable steel construction and equipped with an intelligent PLC control system, it supports stable operation and efficient food processing.

This equipment enables continuous extrusion under controlled temperature, pressure, and screw speed conditions, allowing consistent production of various snack foods such as corn chips, breakfast cereals, puffed snacks, and artificial rice.

It is suitable for food factories, snack manufacturers, and cereal processing facilities that require reliable, high-output extrusion equipment for producing diverse grain-based food products.

Working principle：

Grain materials such as corn, rice, or wheat are fed into the twin-screw extruder through a controlled feeding system. The rotating screws convey, compress, and mix the materials while heat and mechanical shear cause gelatinization and cooking. The processed material is then forced through a die where it forms specific shapes. By adjusting screw speed, temperature, and die configuration, the machine produces different snack forms. The PLC control system monitors and regulates the extrusion process to ensure stable operation and consistent product quality.

Main features：

• Twin-screw extrusion system provides efficient mixing, cooking, and forming of grain materials.
• Wide production capacity range from 100 to 1200kg per hour for flexible manufacturing.
• PLC touch screen control system enables intelligent operation and precise parameter adjustment.
• Modular screw configuration allows processing of cereals, puffed snacks, and protein products.
• Durable steel construction improves equipment stability and reliability in continuous operation.
• Automated monitoring system supports data recording, process management, and alarm protection.

Application scenarios：

• Breakfast cereal and puffed grain processing factories
• Artificial rice and nutritional rice production facilities
• Grain-based snack food manufacturing plants
• Extruded protein food and cereal research laboratories
• Industrial food processing plants producing puffed and fried snacks
