The desire for flexibility in the production line has existed since the earliest days of feed processing. In this article, we will discuss the methods available today for increasing extrusion system flexibility, together with one of the most important resulting benefits – minimizing downtime required for configuration changes. The extrusion cooking process can control a wide range of product characteristics, such as shape, color, texture, bulk...
Polymers cost 1/3 less than metals and outperforms metals in many aggressive environments. They weigh much less than metals and have same strengths as metals. These new Polymers are stable up to 300 C. They can be used to make all common processing equipment like silos, hammer mills, mixers, conditioners, coaters, dryers, conveyors, elevators, coolers, etc. They are insulators so it is more useful in making dryers as separate insulation is not required. Even metallic bearings, seals, blades,...
