Extruders
Thanks to the flexibility of its extruders, SETREM has been able to follow and anticipate developments in the market by offering tailor-made systems to its customers.
Single screw extruder
SETREM has been designing and marketing complete extrusion lines throughout the world since1986. Its single-screw extruders meet all requirements for food and animal feed products. SETREM’s single-screw extruders are equally suited to dry and semi-wet processes for the manufacture of the most complex products. SETREM can offer complete lines with capacities ranging for 40kg/hour up to around 10 tonnes/hour.
Mechanical components
The technical team can provide assistance in commissioning your extruder along with their product formulation skills. Setrem has a stock of spare parts for rapid delivery.
Feeder
The purpose of the feeder is to ensure that the product is put through at a steady rate. It may be of single-screw or twin-screw type according to the application.
Hopper
This not only holds a sufficient stock of the formula but also helps control perfect product take-off.
Preconditioner
A preconditioner upstream from the extruder offers a number of advantages:
- higher rates of throughput,
- steady operation,
- less mechanical wear of extruder parts,
- uniform product wetting,
- three-minute residence time,
- a more palatable product,
- increased starch gelatinisation,
- improved product aspect and quality.
Preconditioner models may be of single-rotor or dual-rotor type to meet the requirements of the whole range of industrial confi- gurations and guarantee a fast return on investment.
Modular components
The extruder sleeve comprises various models of screws, steam- locks and barrels fabricated in high-resistance steel. Barrels are double-jacketed to enable heating or cooling and can be grooved in a range of ways.
Cutting head
The cutting head comprises a set of interchangeable blades for optimum quality of product cut. It is articulated and integra- ted in the machine. Its ease of opening ensures that the extru- der die is highly accessible, facilitating maintenance work. Setrem extruder dies allow a large number of product shapes to be manufactured.
