Conditioning is the result of the three variables moisture, temperature and time. As moisture and temperature are related, time is the ultimate variable to enhance the process. Time can be gained with the application of a Long Term Conditioner (LTC). The LTC, consisting of a steam mixer, automatic steam quantity control and a Long Term Vessel (LTV), significantly improves the process of feed conditioning. This has a major effect on biosecurity, optimizing the nutritional quality of the feed and enhancing the pelletability of the product as well as improving the pellet quality.
Optimization of the quality. Increase of the nutritional value. Influencing the physical features and improving hygiene. Just some of the added values, which are made possible by the mixer’s intensive mixing process and by adding a choice of heat, moisture and/or pressure, during a certain period of time
