Fried Tortilla Extruder Machine

Brief Introduction

Fried Tortilla Extruder Machine is a professional extrusion host device independently developed for fried tortilla snack processing. Different from ordinary puffing equipment, this machine is optimized for the high-temperature frying process characteristics of triangular tortilla chips. It focuses on stable blank forming and moderate puffing degree, ensuring that semi-finished products will not deform or collapse during high-temperature frying. The equipment realizes automatic material curing, extrusion and shaping, serving as the core key equipment in fried tortilla chip production lines.

Factory owners can choose single extruder host purchase or match complete fried processing auxiliary equipment according to actual production configuration. Two mainstream models SLG65-III and SLG70-II can fully meet medium and large-scale fried tortilla snack batch production. The specially designed screw structure adapts to the processing requirements of fried blanks. The frequency conversion speed regulation system can precisely control extrusion speed and blank density. Replacing different molds can produce fried tortilla chips of various sizes and styles.

Raw Materials & Output Blanks

This fried special extruder machine is compatible with corn flour, wheat flour, rice flour and various mixed grain raw materials suitable for fried snacks. After full mixing and high-temperature pressure gelatinization inside the equipment, the raw materials form compact and well-shaped triangular semi-finished blanks. The blanks have stable structure and moderate puffing rate, which can perfectly adapt to subsequent high-temperature frying processing without bulging, breaking or oil absorption.

Equipment Advantages

The twin-screw co-rotating extrusion structure adopts fried-process-oriented parameter optimization, which makes the blank molding more stable and effectively improves the yield of finished fried tortilla snacks. High-strength nitrided alloy steel screws have strong compression and wear resistance, suitable for long-term continuous extrusion of fried special grain materials.

Adopting modular detachable structure, the equipment is convenient for daily residue cleaning and quick replacement of wearing parts, ensuring the sanitation and stability of fried food production. The feeding and main drive system adopt independent frequency conversion control, which can adjust blank compactness and production capacity according to different frying process parameters.

The gearbox is equipped with a stable forced lubrication system to avoid mechanical fatigue loss during long-term continuous operation. Each heating area of the extrusion barrel can be independently temperature-controlled, realizing precise formula debugging for different fried tortilla products.

The equipment supports fast formula switching without full disassembly, effectively improving production conversion efficiency. It has strong pertinence to fried snack production and can effectively solve common problems such as irregular product shape and excessive oil absorption.

Production Workflow

Raw grain powder is evenly mixed in advance and transported to the twin-screw extruder through a professional conveyor system. After high-temperature curing, pressure extrusion and fixed-size molding, standard triangular tortilla blanks are output. The blanks are sent to the frying process, followed by de-oiling, seasoning, cooling and packaging to complete finished fried tortilla snacks.

Technical Parameters

Finished Product Performance

The semi-finished blanks produced by this fried special extruder have uniform density and regular shape. After high-temperature frying, the finished tortilla chips are crispy and fluffy, with low oil absorption rate, not greasy and long-lasting taste. The product has complete shape and few defective products, which greatly improves the market competitiveness of finished snacks.
