food safety. The company has pro-actively taken a leading role as the first original equipment manufacturer to build a
dedicated Biosafety Level 2 extrusion lab and further to scientifically validate the extruder “Kill Step” for salmonella and
other pathogens. The company has made this Biosafety Level 2 extrusion lab and extrusion equipment available for
confidential client formula and process validation as required within their food safety programmes.
The overriding goal of the Extru-Tech engineering staff has always been to design an extrusion cooking solution that will
yield high production levels of premium quality products that are fully compliant with food safety standards. Extru-Tech
offers an exclusive line of single screw cooking extruders with capacity rates from 300-33 000 lbs per hour. The Extru-
Tech designed and manufactured AirFlow II Dual and Triple Pass Dryer/Cooler Systems enables customers to improve
finished product quality while improving drying efficiency.
Other major components supplied by Extru-Tech include vertical and horizontal coolers, batch and con-tinuous
enrobing systems; multi-colour/multi-shape die systems; pneumatic conveying systems; prod-uct
densification units; sphere-izer agglomeration systems; meat inclusion systems; waste recovery

has obtained the European CE and Russian GOST-R certificates, as well as being designated
a “Chinese well-known brand”, and one of China’s “national key high-tech enterprises”.
SZLH1068: China’s largest capacity pellet mill: Developed and manufacturerd by
Zhengchang, the SZLH1068 pellet mill is one of China’s key science and technology support projects of its
eleventh five-year plan. Its 44-55 tonne per hour capacity is the largest of any in China, and it will be put to use in
the 160 ton per hour feed factory for the Hewei company.
The successful manufacture of the SZLH1068 has laid a solid technological foundation for the massive and
intensive development of the Chinese feed industry. The adoption of the SZLH1068 pellet mill will greatly reduce
the cost of investment, production and management for feed factories, and add value to their products.
Advantages: Variable-frequency feeder: a variable-pitch double screw ensures even feeding of the product. The
main motor works at a stable current, and the round screw barrel protects against upcoming steam. Extended
and lengthened conditioner ensures longer conditioning time and better performance
Multiple inlets ensure even addition of steam • External pneumatic discharger releases feed automatically in
case of blockage, and magnets at chute inlet removes impurities • High quality bearings in drive system and
adoptin of thin-oil cooling and lubrication ensure long-term reliability • Greater capacity and better pellet quality
due to increased die speed • Hydraulic lifting carrier makes it easy to disassemble the die and roller • Optimized
design, advanced heat-treatment technology and high quality steel fabrication give the gear and shaft a
longer life and more reliable drive
