What Is Preconditioning? Preconditioning means to condition or prepare a material before it is processed further. In the context of extrusion processes, preconditioning occurs just prior to extrusion inside a piece of equipment called a...

1. Introduction One of the important tasks facing the Russian agro-industrial complex is to increase the digestibility of grain components of feed, increase the content of nutrients in feed. In addition, feed accounts for the largest share in the structure of costs for the production of livestock products. One of the promising directions for the intensification of technological processes is the change in the physical and chemical properties of feed products when exposed to them...
1. Introduction Extrusion has been widely used in feed processing for over 70 years [1]. It can change the physio-chemical properties of feed ingredients by applying constant moisture, pressure, and high temperature with the combination of shear force. Thus, extruded ingredients have greater nutrient utilization and reduced anti-nutritional factors [2]. Full-fat rice bran (FFRB), an important by-product of the rice milling industry, is commonly used as an alternative to...
Abstract Increasing the fat amount of the ration during extrusion can negatively affect product density and product expansion. Ingredients, like whole soybeans (WSB), which are high in fat may increase energy density while avoiding production issues. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of WSB on extrusion and product characteristics of dry expanded dog food. Experimental diets were extruded with 0, 100, 200, and 300 g/kg, as fed WSB. The processing conditions...
Does it require steam flaked maize to be grinding before pelleting in chicken feed ? ...
1. Introduction The health of the gastrointestinal tract is one of the important indicators of the overall health of an organism. The health of the intestine is given considerable attention in human nutrition due to the existence of various autoimmune and other diseases. Intestinal epithelial barrier dysfunction and increased permeability result in a “leaky gut”, which is associated with intestinal disorders in humans, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), bowel...
Hi to all, anybody's worked with the Wenger's Preconditioner HIP 450 or similar? What's your opinion about that? What retention time can I reach with this preconditioner? Maybe someone can share his experience. Thanks for your answers ...
Description of problem Feed ingredients and feed manufacturing account for 60 to 70% of production costs in an integrated poultry operation. Modern commercial broilers are fed predominately pelleted diets, and researchers have demonstrated how improving pellet quality (PQ), by increasing the percentage of pellets in the diet, further enhances bird performance (Proudfoot and Sefton, 1978; Dozier et al., 2010; Corzo et al., 2011; Lilly et al., 2011; Glover et al., 2016; Lemons and...
Hi, I have a problem with the bulk density of the aquafeed. Recently we take some changes in our production process to increase the quality of the aquafeed. We put steam and water at 80 °C in the pre conditioner, and a 0.5/1.5 of oil. We add 23% of water and 7% of steam We reduce the speed of shaft to increase the retention time. We take also another die with higher open area to have less pressure to the die. The outgoing pellet from the extruder sink, but in the final product we have...
The 64th National Symposium 2023, came to a close on Saturday, August 19, 2023, after two days of insightful discussions on the agriculture, livestock, and fishery industries. The event, held at Le Meridien, New Delhi, brought together industry experts, government officials, and stakeholders to address key...
Optimal soybean (SB) processing conditions is essential to ensure that antinutritional factors as trypsin inhibitors are deactivated while maintaining protein solubility and dispersibility. Heat processing is critical for improving amino acid digestibility of extruded SB for broilers. Excessive heat treatment can lead to denaturation of proteins, resulting in a negative impact on animal performance and microbiota composition. In this study, we investigated the effect of three different...
Dr. Ana Maria Villegas, Technical Services Manager for Gut Health Solutions at Evonik, discusses optimal processing conditions for soybean and its effects on gut health, during this Engormix interview....
Extrusion has been used to prepare animal feeds for many years and has proved to be an effective means to cook and shape raw ingredients into very specialized products, especially in the highly competitive pet food market where size, shape, mouth feel and degree of cook are important factors in the success of the product. During the past 25 years the commercial raising of fish for human food consumption has grown rapidly and this has opened up opportunities for the fish feed industry to...
Dave Albin - Vice President, Nutrition & Extrusion Technologies - Insta-Pro International, explains the goal of a feeding study to determine how the use of high-shear dry extrusion with ExPress® soya flour affected the growth of Ross broilers.
