Darin Machinery, a well-established provider of food and pet food processing equipment, has successfully completed the export of a 1-ton pet food steam extruder to Italy. This export is part of the company’s regular business operations, aimed at expanding its reach in international markets.
DETAILS OF THE STEAM EXTRUDER
The steam extruder, designed for the production of pet food, incorporates a dual screw mechanism that efficiently processes raw materials through mixing and rubbing. This process takes place within seconds, elevating the temperature and pressure inside the chamber, which is crucial for achieving desired changes in the material structure:
Starch Gelatinization: The rapid heat and pressure transform the starches, enhancing their digestibility.
Protein Denaturation: Proteins undergo structural changes, improving their bioavailability.
Safety Assurance: The process ensures the elimination of pathogens such as Salmonella, making the pet food safe for consumption.
Form and Function: The equipment shapes the pet food effectively as it exits under sudden pressure drop and flash evaporation of moisture.
IMPACT OF THE EXPORT
This export to Italy underscores Darin Machinery’s capabilities in fulfilling the needs of international clientele with precision equipment tailored for the pet food industry. It also highlights the company’s commitment to maintaining and expanding its presence in global markets, particularly in Europe.
This routine export is part of Darin Machinery’s ongoing activities to provide reliable and efficient solutions to the pet food production sector, contributing to better food quality and production efficiency worldwide.
