· Easy automatic operation & low labor cost

· Different forming molds available, ideal for all sizes of food factories & processing manufacturers

Product Introduction

Our industrial corn flakes processing line is a full set twin-screw extrusion system specially designed for mass production of ready-to-eat breakfast cereals. The equipment can process corn powder, wheat, rice, oat and various mixed grain raw materials into crisp corn flakes. The final products feature outstanding soaking resistance and rich natural grain taste, which can be eaten directly as snacks or served with milk, yogurt and coffee for daily breakfast.

Equipped with replaceable forming dies, the whole line can flexibly switch product styles. Besides standard corn flakes, it can produce cereal rings, grain balls, star and alphabet-shaped puffed cereals without major equipment modification. All parts that contact food are made of 304 stainless steel, complying with CE, ISO and SGS international machinery standards for food production.

Core Advantages of Industrial Corn Flakes Processing Line

1.Wide Raw Material CompatibilityNot limited to single corn raw materials. Multiple grains can be mixed and processed to develop nutritious multi-grain flake products, helping factories enrich product portfolios.

2.Modular Flexible ConfigurationEach production unit can be combined and placed freely according to the customer's factory space. Small compact layout for small workshops and large continuous layout for large-scale factories are both available. Customers can add feeding, seasoning or cooling units separately as needed.

3.Multiple Product Types SupportedOne production line realizes diversified production: original corn flakes, honey-coated flakes, chocolate flavored flakes, fruit mixed flakes and various special-shaped puffed cereals. It avoids extra investment in multiple production machines.

4.Easy Operation & Low Labor DemandThe whole line adopts integrated frequency conversion control system with stable running performance. Only 1 to 2 workers are required to complete all production procedures. Mold replacement, equipment disassembly and daily cleaning can be finished quickly with simple steps.

5.Stable & Durable Running PerformanceThe core twin-screw extruder is equipped with wear-resistant alloy screw components. The flaking machine adopts constant temperature counter-rotating rollers to prevent material sticking, reduce failure frequency and extend service life.

Complete Production Technological Flow

1.Raw Material Mixing: Mix grain powder and liquid accessories in fixed proportion to reach uniform humidity suitable for extrusion cooking.

2.Twin-Screw Extrusion & Gelatinization: Raw materials are fully cooked under high temperature and high shear inside the extruder barrel, realizing complete starch gelatinization to guarantee crispy texture after baking.

3.Flaking Molding: Extruded semi-finished strips pass through constant temperature pressing rollers to form thin and even corn flakes.

4.Two-Stage Drying & High-Temperature Baking: Primary drying removes surface moisture; high-temperature oven bakes flakes thoroughly to lock crispness and remove raw grain odor.

5.Flavor Coating: Atomized syrup, cocoa powder or fruit powder evenly wrap the surface of cereal flakes in the coating drum.

6.Secondary Drying: Remove redundant moisture brought by coating liquid to extend finished product shelf life.

7.Cooling & Sorting: Cool hot flakes down to room temperature and screen broken fragments, which can be directly connected with automatic packaging equipment.
