The patented pre-compacting technology, a unique alternative for double pelleting or expanding. The Boa Compactors have a double-walled mixing chamber in which steam and liquids are introduced and the mixture is compacted using an hydraulically operated compacting chamber.
The stainless-steel conditioners has large paddles whose height and angle can be adjusted to provide homogenous mixing and a hygienic process. The robust, low-maintenance machine can be combined with a feeder screw and steam set and contributes to an optimum absorption of steam and liquids.
Adding steam to the production process for animal feeds improves the compressibility (an increase in the press capacity of 20% is no exception) and the condition of the laying mash, among other things. Steam inactivates micro-organisms while the sensory properties (including aroma, taste and texture) of the product mix are retained.
A closed, insulated and heated mixing chamber, in which a mixture is heated with dry steam by a shaft which can rotate in two directions. Generously sized paddles, adjustable in both height and pitch, create a homogeneous mixture and a hygienic process. Two PT 100 temperature sensors register the preset temperature after which the electro-pneumatically controlled flap of the outlet is opened.
After the homogeneous mixing in of steam in a conditioner the product remains, during a preset length of time, in this heated and insulated retention time barrel. After the retention time barrel the product can be further treated in a pellet mill, extruder or meal cooler. The thermal treatment of the product results in an easier operation of the pellet mill, which simultaneously results in an improved pellet quality.
Our heart is currently with those who work hard for the safety and health of all of us. And we also think of everyone who perseveres to keep his work or business running under these extreme conditions.
