Fishfeed

Design of fishfeed lines (Farmed and ornamental fish)

La cuisson-extrusion pour produire des aliments pour les poissons a permis de nombreux progrès. Nous vous accompagnons pour la conception de machines permettant la fabrication d’aliments pour l’aquaculture.

Grâce à l’expansion de la matière en sortie de filière on peut diminuer la densité des aliments et ainsi laisser de l’espace pour l’ajout des matières grasses. Les besoins des aquaculteurs sont différents s’il s’agit de poissons marins, de poissons d’eau douce, de crevettes, de l’âge des poissons, etc…

Le choix de l’enrobeur (à batch, en continu, sous vide ou atmosphérique) sera en fonction des espèces cibles.

TGC EXTRUSION saura vous conseiller au mieux pour définir votre ligne de production adaptée à vos aliments aquacoles et piscicoles.

La maîtrise de la densité est par exemple un point clé pour définir le comportement dans l’eau des aliments extrudés (flottant, coulant).

La coupe des aliments en sortie de filière est un autre point critique. Il faut qu’elle soit parfaite pour générer le moins de fines possible. C’est pour cela que nous avons créé un couteau granulateur spécifique qui garantit un alignement parfait entre le plan de coupe et la filière.

 

Drying is a key step to ensure a good preservation of the product, the choice of the right machine is therefore essential, new energy solutions arrive to limit the financial impact.

The techniques of coating, thanks to the use of vacuum allows a better incorporation of oils. A sequential coating can be made with several ingredients (a main oil in the centre of the pellet and others in the periphery).  But this technique also promotes the addition of micro-ingredients (probiotics, appetites, etc.).

Technical coating solutions limit the oil release effect.

The quality of the flour grinding is another crucial point for obtaining a better gelatinization of the starch, to limit the presence of fines, to ensure the production of micro pellets.

A custom design of your production lines for animal feed

Depending on the type of animal food you want to make, the technical choices will not be the same.
