Details Introduction:
1. Raw Material Handling: Cleaning, Mixing, and Preconditioning
The process begins with grains like oats, corn, or wheat being cleaned to remove impurities. Advanced Breakfast Cereal Making Machines use optical sorters and air classifiers to ensure only high-quality grains proceed. Next, ingredients are mixed and preconditioned with water or steam to soften the grains, preparing them for extrusion.
2. Extrusion & Shaping: Crafting Textures
Extrusion is where the magic happens. The Breakfast Cereal process line employs twin-screw extruders that apply heat and pressure to cook the dough. By adjusting die shapes and cutting mechanisms, these machines create diverse textures—flakes, puffs, or clusters.
Â
3. Drying & Seasoning Systems
Post-extrusion, cereals move through multi-zone dryers to achieve the ideal moisture content (typically 3-5%). Pre-dryer preserves crispness without compromising nutrients. Flavor system—like honey or chocolate—are applied via precision spray systems, ensuring even distribution for consistent taste.
