Production line features

Baby food machinery is used to produce infant food and other instant flour products. The raw material consists of cereal flour (corn, wheat, rice, oat, soy, etc.). The raw material is put in the mixer, and the mixed ingredients are fed into the extruder feeder. The extruder is fitted with a special cylindrical holding silo, a vibratory doser with hopper to feed the extruding screw, the extrusion mechanism and cutter, and an independent electric panel.

After extrusion the product is conveyed to the continuous rotary dryer by pneumatic conveyor. The continuous rotary dryer has a heat exchanger with gas burner that allows better heating of the product and is economical owing to the low electric power cost. The dried product is taken by the hoister to the mill's feeding silo, where it is ground by the friction of the hammers to obtain flour of the desired granulation. With a blender, a pre-mix of vitamins, minerals and milk can be added to make fortified blended foods. We have much experience in providing solutions for baby food, FBF, CSB, samaposha, etc.
