How to Influence the Buoyancy of Feed by Adjusting Operational Parameters of SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder
The SPHS series twin-screw steam extruder is commonly used equipment in feed production, and the adjustment of its operational parameters directly affects the quality and performance of the feed. Among them, the buoyancy of the feed is one of the important indicators to evaluate feed quality, which determines the suspending ability and stability of the feed in water. This article will explore how to influence the buoyancy of feed by adjusting operational parameters such as temperature, pressure, and screw speed of the SPHS series twin-screw steam extruder.
1. Impact of Temperature
In the twin-screw steam extruder, temperature is one of the key factors affecting the buoyancy of feed. Proper adjustment of the extruder temperature can change the density and hardness of the feed, thereby affecting its buoyancy. Generally, with the increase of temperature, the evaporation of moisture inside the feed accelerates, the density of the feed decreases, and the buoyancy increases. However, excessively high temperature can lead to loss of nutritional components in the feed, so it is necessary to reasonably set the temperature of the extruder while ensuring the quality of the feed.
2. Impact of Pressure
Pressure is another important parameter in the twin-screw steam extruder. Increasing the pressure of the extruder can improve the compactness of the feed, reduce internal pores in the feed, and thus increase the buoyancy of the feed. However, excessively high pressure will increase the load on the equipment and reduce production efficiency. Therefore, in practical operation, it is necessary to reasonably select the pressure size according to the type of feed and production requirements.
3. Impact of Screw Speed
Screw speed is an important operational parameter in the SPHS series twin-screw steam extruder. The speed of the screw directly affects the extrusion speed and extrusion effect of the feed. Generally, appropriately increasing the screw speed can increase the extrusion volume of the feed and improve production efficiency. However, excessively high speed will subject the feed to excessive shear force during the extrusion process, destroy the structure of the feed, and affect its buoyancy. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the screw speed reasonably according to the characteristics of the feed and production needs.
4. Comprehensive Adjustment
In practical operation, to obtain the desired buoyancy of the feed, it is often necessary to consider the influence of multiple parameters such as temperature, pressure, and screw speed comprehensively. Through continuous experimentation and optimization, find the optimal combination of operational parameters suitable for specific feed production to ensure that the feed has good buoyancy.
With the continuous advancement of feed production technology, new types of feed production equipment such as the SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder are gradually demonstrating their unique advantages. Compared to traditional feed production equipment, the SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder has made significant improvements and breakthroughs in several aspects.
High Production Efficiency
The SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder adopts advanced twin-screw design, enabling materials to undergo more uniform shearing and mixing inside the machine. This design not only improves production efficiency but also ensures the uniformity and stability of the feed. At the same time, the introduction of steam further accelerates the maturation process of materials, allowing the feed to achieve ideal quality in a short period.
Energy Saving and Environmental Protection
Traditional feed production equipment often generates a large amount of exhaust gas, wastewater, and waste residue during the production process, which imposes a significant burden on the environment. However, the SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder fully considers environmental factors in its design, adopting a low-energy-consumption, low-emission design concept. The utilization of steam not only reduces energy consumption but also avoids the generation of wastewater, greatly reducing environmental pollution during the production process.
3. Versatile Applicability
The SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder can not only produce various common feeds but also produce specialized feeds for different animal species and growth stages by adjusting process parameters and formulations. This high degree of applicability makes feed production more flexible and diverse, meeting the personalized needs of different breeding farms.
4. Simple Operation and Convenient Maintenance
Traditional feed production equipment is complex to operate and has high maintenance costs, which brings certain inconvenience to production. However, the SPHS Series Twin-Screw Steam Extruder adopts an intelligent control system, making operation simpler and more intuitive. At the same time, the reasonable structural design of the equipment makes maintenance more convenient, significantly reducing production costs.
