Coater
Coaters are equipment used to apply a uniform layer of liquid or powder on extruded products.
These coaters are often used in the food industry (pet food) to improve palatability and increase the energy content of feed for aquaculture.
About coating machines
These machines are widely used in various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and materials manufacturing, to enhance texture, flavor, shelf life, or the physical properties of the products.
How Coaters Work
Coating Process
The kibble is dosed, and based on this dosage, a percentage of liquid is sprayed onto the surface of the kibble. A continuous mixing system ensures the homogenization of the coating. It is also possible to sprinkle the kibble with a mixture that enhances the product's palatability.
Types of coatings
Liquid Coating
To add aromas and flavors, oils and animal fats are used, up to 12% in atmospheric coating.
Powder Coating
Used in pet food, the powder is applied to intensify the flavor and make the product more palatable.
