Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked QuestionsEverything you need to know about our pasta extrusion lines.

Twin-screw extruders are high-shear, high-speed machines designed to cook and expand starches (such as pet food or snacks). Pasta requires a “cold extrusion” process. Our single-screw extruder gently compacts and shapes the dough without generating heat, preserving the wheat’s natural protein matrix and keeping the starch raw. This ensures the pasta retains its shape and achieves a classic, authentic al dente texture.
Without a vacuum, air bubbles become trapped in the dough. During drying, these bubbles expand and cause micro-cracks, making the dry pasta brittle and prone to breakage during transit. During cooking, these pockets allow starch to leach out, clouding the water and making the pasta mushy. Our -0.08 MPa vacuum degassing system extracts all microscopic air, creating a dense, glass-like molecular arrangement. This yields glittering, translucent pasta with superior cooking resistance that can boil for up to 45 minutes without collapsing.
Dehydrating pasta too quickly causes the outer layer to shrink and harden while the core remains moist. This moisture gradient creates high tensile stress, leading to warping and cracking. Our multi-layer belt dryers utilize a controlled, multi-stage low-temperature curve. By slowly extracting moisture from the core outward, we eliminate physical stress and ensure a structurally sound, high-yield finished product.
Yes. By adjusting the screw compression ratio and precisely regulating the barrel temperature jackets, our lines can handle gluten-free matrices. This includes 100% corn flour, rice flour, potato starch, and pulse protein formulas, allowing you to easily cater to the high-margin health food market.
Our single-screw extruders utilize premium 38CrMoAl alloy steel for both screws and barrels, treated with a deep nitriding process. This yields a surface hardness of ≥HV850 and a nitrided case depth of 0.5–0.8mm, providing a robust wear life of over 8,000 continuous hours. For specialty formulations (high-salt or acidic ingredients), we offer bimetallic barrel bushings and food-grade SS316L stainless steel contact points.
Yes, we provide full turnkey global support. We dispatch highly experienced mechanical and electrical field engineers directly to your factory for on-site machinery assembly, piping/cabling coordination, line calibration, formulation fine-tuning, and comprehensive operator training on operations and preventative maintenance.
