Single Conditioner
The Single Conditioner mixes steam and liquids into meal before pelleting or extrusion for uniform, hygienic conditioning. Adjustable paddles ensure consistent mixing, while the stainless steel design supports easy cleaning and long service life. Available in standard or heated versions, it delivers stable temperatures and good steam absorption, often paired with a feeder screw and steam set.
- Homogeneous and hygienic mixing
- Optimum absorption of steam and liquids
- Robust and low-maintenance construction
Consistent conditioning with hygienic design
The single conditioner ensures uniform mixing and reliable absorption of steam and liquids through adjustable paddles and controlled residence time. Its stainless-steel, easy-to-clean design supports hygienic processing and long maintenance intervals. The optional heated and insulated version reduces condensation and heat loss, keeping the conditioning process stable and technically controlled.
