Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our Panko bread crumbs extrusion lines

Traditional Panko requires yeast fermentation, dough proofing, baking in specialized electric resistance ovens, and long cooling cycles, taking 12–24 hours. Zhuoheng’s turnkey twin-screw extrusion process completely eliminates proofing and baking. By utilizing precise Specific Mechanical Energy (SME) inputs under controlled thermophysical parameters, the starch gelatinizes instantly inside our barrel, forming a dense, uniform cellular structure in only 30 seconds.
Controlling final crumb geometry is achieved through two variables: the moisture profile at the extruder die and the speed of our Specialized Wet-Milling Crusher. By adjusting the water injection rate inside the barrel, we control the density of the extruded loaf. Combined with VFD-controlled cutter speeds and specific screen mesh sizes, operators can switch from Japanese needle-shaped Panko to Western granular crumbs.
High-volume flour extrusion causes severe abrasive wear. We manufacture our screws from premium 38CrMoAl alloy steel treated with a deep nitrogen gas nitriding process, achieving a surface hardness of ≥HV850 and a case depth of 0.5–0.8mm. The wet-milling crusher blades are forged from high-impact Cr-Mo-V wear steel, ensuring over 6,000 continuous hours of maintenance-free operation.v
Yes. Colors (such as vibrant beta-carotene orange, turmeric yellow, or spinach green) are introduced as liquid concentrates or powder pigments directly into our twin-shaft mixer before extrusion. The high-shear action of the co-rotating twin screws ensures complete, molecular-level dispersion within the starch matrix, preventing color or flavor leaching during the downstream wet-milling and drying steps.
Freshly crushed Panko flakes are fragile and have a high moisture content of 20%-25%. Flash dryers use violent pneumatic cyclones that destroy the delicate needle-like structure, turning Panko into powder. Our multi-layer belt dryers slowly convey the wet flakes on a stainless steel mesh bed. Hot air recirculates gently through the product layers, preserving the needle shape and reducing moisture to <8% with zero mechanical degradation.
We provide full turnkey global support. We dispatch highly experienced mechanical and electrical field engineers directly to your facility overseas to manage on-site machinery assembly, piping/cabling coordination, line calibration, formula fine-tuning (using local raw starches), and comprehensive operator training on routine operations and preventative maintenance.
