GEA has added the xTru Twin 140 to its xTru Twin series of high-capacity extruders for the food and pet food industries. The machine is equipped with powered screws that provide users with up to 40% increased capacity with the same efficiency, quality and footprint as previous models. Additionally, this high-capacity technology can be applied to the other models of the GEA xTru Twin extruders too — models 70/92/112 — and retrofitted to older machines to increase their capacity without changing the floorplan of the factory.
Suitable for a range of products including cereal-based snack pellets die-cut, 2D, 3D, multilayers, square shape, punched and direct expanded; breakfast cereals; dry pet food; and any other extruded food product, the machine has a production capacity of over 3 tons of pellets and 10 tons of pet food kibbles an hour.
Other key features include: a high-speed premixer for hydrating flour; a large, curved mixing vessel that facilitates good water absorption and adhering to the requisite hygiene standards; a vertical forced feeding screw to control the dough’s movement into the cooking screw; a powerful, variable speed motor with a safety clutch; and a high-torque, double cascade gearbox that ensures good power reserves and safety. With its co-rotating, fully intermeshing twin screws, a modular barrel assists in cooking cereal-based dough.
