Our preconditionners PBR
SETREM’s Preconditionner family has been declined into two different categories: single shaft and double shaft.
The first category, well known in the Industry field, allows hydration around 5 to % of water. Water is injected in a steam and/or water form. The temperature can rise to 90°, retention time not exceeding 30 seconds even if we can raise this timing with a more important volume.
Depending on precondionner’s applications the single shaft one can sometimes be enough. However when precooked functions are necessary then it is better to work with birotors. We can sometimes even get 3 minutes retention timing with hydration rate around 25 to 27 %.
Blades are included in the mixing configuration allowing good mix quality. Each blade has its own function; the smallest one is going to mix while the bigger one is keeping away the product. Injections are also planned such as slurrys,oils to guarantee the perfect mixing homogeneity before extrusion.

Treating soybean process
By their composition, Soybeans are very interesting for animal nutrition. Indeed their contain between 18 and 20 % of fat, source of energy; between 35 and 38 % of proteins, but also many anti-nutritional factors preventing good beans assimilation by various digestives systems. In particular proteases (trypsin inhibitors) preventing beans digestion, hematoagglutinins (lecthins) that prevent nutrients absorption but also allergenic factors that can affect especially milk calves.
Processing raw materials: Soya
If the soya is not subjected to a previous thermal treatment, the nutritional value and the digestibility of the raw Soya proteins are quite low.
Processing raw materials: cereals
Extruder treatment causes transformations of food raw materials that generate healthier products. High temperatures and high pressures in extruder barrel destroy microbes, most mold spores and insect eggs.
Extruders: peerless tools for animal feed production
Livestock farming techniques have changed over time and now require greater precision. Today, intensive farming must meet new demands from consumers, especially where the nutritional value of the products is concerned.
Maillard’s reactions
Maillard reactions, commonly used in cooking for their organoleptic characteristics, are very interesting for ruminant nutrition.
Benefits of extruded soy for livestock
Soybean, due to its high protein content, is widely used in animal feed. To maximize its value, extrusion is the most suitable technological process, regardless of the species.
