The company invites you to learn about extrusion for product development including flavor encapsulation, wet and dry texturized proteins and specialty end product shapes and sizes, as well as feeding and material handling technology, batching and dispensing of the most difficult flowing ingredients and the most technologically advanced components in the food industry.

The ideal extrusion system for many types of food and pet food

Coperion’s twin screw extruder ZSK Mv PLUS offers perfect conditions for the extrusion of many types of food and pet food products. The process section of the ZSK twin screw extruder consists of several barrels in which the co-rotating screws operate. The closely intermeshing screws with their tight self-wiping profile eliminate stagnant zones over the whole length of the process section. The effect of this is a constantly high conveying efficiency and perfect self-cleaning.

The modular design of the ZSK Mv PLUS and its unique combination of free screw volume, screw speed and torque enable this twin screw extruder series to be individually configured for every application. The complete portfolio includes a wide range of sizes, allowing customers to process any required throughput range from laboratory to production scale.
