Puffed corn stick processing equipment
The Cheetos corn stick/corn strip production line uses corn grits as raw material, which are extruded through a rotary head extruder to produce irregular crispy puffed snacks, highly favored by consumers. The equipment uses a vibrating feeder to adjust the flow rate, a screw feeder with variable frequency speed control, and a manually adjustable extruder head gap for flexible and precise operation.
Dual process flexible switching: supports both fried and baked production processes—the fried type is equipped with a continuous fryer and a drum sieve for residue removal, resulting in a crispy and rich taste; the baked type is equipped with a continuous mesh belt oven, offering a non-fried, healthier option. One machine serves multiple purposes, meeting different market positioning needs.
The series includes two configurations: DT76-I fried type and baked type, with a capacity range of 100-250 kg/h. The entire line operates fully automatically from mixing, extruding, residue removal/baking to seasoning and packaging, making it easy to operate. The company provides recipe support and lifelong maintenance services, making it an ideal choice for investment in puffed corn snack foods.
The Cheetos corn puff production line uses corn grits (corn kernels) as raw material, which is extruded by the main machine to form irregular puffed snacks. After seasoning, it can produce crispy products with different textures, highly favored by consumers. The extruder is equipped with a vibrating feeder hopper, allowing adjustment of the raw material flow rate. The feed screw speed is controlled by a frequency converter and can be adjusted arbitrarily. The mechanical gear linkage enables manual control of the extruder head gap, and the handwheel controls the base linkage, making it easier for the feed screw to enter the extruder barrel.
