Expander & Extruder
Expander & Extruder - High-capacity oil seed processing equipment
Expander
Expander Assembly
Die Plate & Nozzle
Accumulator
Expanders transform conditioned seeds into porous pellets, increasing bulk density by 40-50% (0.4→0.6 kg/L) for higher extraction column throughput. The expanded structure reduces solvent consumption by 15-25% while improving meal quality and protein solubility.
