Preconditioning before extrusion allows replacing some of the mechanical energy with thermal energy and generates additional retention time. This enables you to improve product quality and achieve a higher degree of cooking at lower energy costs.

During extrusion, your solid raw materials are mixed, heated, cooked, gelatinized, dextrinized, shaped and granulated – all in one process. Our extruders are configured to the specific characteristics of your raw material formulations and the requirements of your end products.
