6 Points you need to know about the Corn Flakes Production Line
Jinan Sunpring Extruder tell you the things you need to know about Corn Flakes Production Line in 6 points.
Point 1: What is the corn flakes production line?
Answer 1:
The production line includes mixing, extruding, flaking, drying, high temperature baking, flavoring and cooling. It can be eaten like snack, and be eaten with milk or coffee as well. By changing moulds and production process, this production line can make different shapes of puffed food.
Problem 2: What is the process of making cornflakes?
Answer 2:
The ingredients are subjected to combination of heating,cooling, mixing and shearing in the extruder. The extruded pellets are flaked in the rolling unit and dried. Coating of flakes is done if flakes are to be glazed. Finally, flakes are dried, cooled and packed.
Problem 3: What is the raw material for corn flakes?
Answer 3:
Corn flakes being one of most nutritious foods and is consumed as breakfast food not only in India but-elsewhere in the world. Basically, it is prepared from maize, this is the main raw material. Flavours, like sugar or salt, are also added. Maize, the main raw material, is itself a corn grain.
Problem 4: What’s the product of the corn flakes production line?
Answer 4:
Nachos (corn chips/corn flakes) and some breakfast cereals.
Problem 5: What’s the flowchart?
Answer 5:
Mixing → Conveying → Extrusion → Flaking → Conveying → Drying → Conveying → Drying → Conveying → Flavoring → Conveying → Drying → Cooling.
