Corn Flakes Production Machine

Corn flakes production line is also called breakfast cereal corn flakes production line, corn flake /breakfast cereal is one kind of crispy food, with the advantages of hard to be steeped broken and strong grain taste. It is the crispy flake which is made from corn meal and the other grains powder. The production line includes mixing, extruding, flaking, drying, high temperature baking, flavoring and cooling. It can be eaten like snack, and be eaten with milk or coffee as well. By changing moulds and production process, this production line can make different shapes of puffed food. Such as ring, ball, flake, star, letter etc.

By changing the extruder mould, we can get different shape breakfast cereals and corn flakes.

The raw materials and liquid are pre-mixed according to the proportion, and continuously and uniformly fed into the extrusion platform. The thermomechanical energy provided by a twin-screw extruder is then used to cook the mixture at a suitable temperature. The texture and shape of the expanded product are determined by the final design of the insert, and the expansion rate is affected by the temperature of the extrudate, the type of ingredients used, and the moisture content. Before drying and cooling, an additional coating operation can be applied to add, for example, sweet syrup. After a short cooling period, the product is tempered, cut and tableted using a tableting device consisting of two temperature-regulated and counter-rotating cylinders. They are then transferred to a dryer/toaster and cooled before storage and packaging.

Our twin screw extrusion cereal flakes lines can produce plain and coated corn flakes. Together with multi-grains like corn, wheat, rice, oats, and coating recipes such as sweet syrups, honey, chocolate and other compositions. This extruded cereal production system can also produce directly expanded ready-to-eat breakfast cereals, which is with crispy or crunchy textures.
