Das vorextrudierte Produkt gelangt direkt in eine Expansionskammer und von da in eine formgebende Pumpeinheit. Durch Regulierung des Arbeitsdruckes in der Expansionskammer ist es möglich, den Siedepunkt des Wassers in der zu extrudierenden Masse einzustellen und den Wasseraustritt zu steuern. Durch Überdruck oder Unterdruck in der Expansionskammer, der mittels eines Ventils einstellbar ist, kann die Expansion des Produkts gesteuert werden. Dabei kann zum Beispiel zur Verringerung der Produktexpansion in der Expansionskammer der Dampfdruck und (damit in Verbindung stehend) der Siedepunkt des im Produkt enthaltenen Wassers erhöht werden.The Pre-extruded product passes directly into an expansion chamber and from there into a shaping pumping unit. By regulating the working pressure in the expansion chamber it is possible to use the Set the boiling point of the water in the mass to be extruded and to control the water outlet. Due to overpressure or negative pressure in the expansion chamber, which is adjustable by means of a valve, the expansion of the product can be controlled. It can for Example of reducing product expansion in the expansion chamber the vapor pressure and (related) the boiling point of the water contained in the product can be increased.

Das so vorbehandelte Produkt wird nachfolgend in einer Pumpeinheit geformt.The thus pretreated product is subsequently molded in a pumping unit.

Ein weiterer Vorteil des Verfahrens besteht in der erreichbaren hohen Produktivität.One Another advantage of the method is the achievable high Productivity.

Eine weitere Aufgabe besteht darin eine Einrichtung zur Ausführung des Verfahrens zu schaffen. Diese Aufgabe ist mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 3 gelöst.A Another object is a device for the execution of the To create a procedure. This task is with the characteristics of Patent claim 3 solved.

Die erfindungsgemässe Einrichtung enthält einen Extruder, bevorzugt einen Einwellenextruder, dessen Produktaustrittsöffnung mit einer Expansionskammer verbunden ist. Deren Produktaustrittsöffnung ist wiederum mit einer Formungseinheit, z. B. einer Exzenterschneckenpumpe (Moineaupumpe) oder jegliche andere für diese Zwecke geeignete Pumpe verbunden.The invention Facility contains one Extruder, preferably a single-screw extruder whose product outlet opening with an expansion chamber is connected. Their product outlet is again with a shaping unit, z. B. an eccentric screw pump (Moineaupumpe) or any other suitable for this purpose pump connected.

Die Expansionskammer ist bevorzugt mit einem Druckluftventil und Ventil zur Dampfzu- und abfuhr versehen. Der Dampf, der durch den flash-off der extrudierten und expandierten Produkte in der Expansionskammer entsteht, kann durch das Ventil abgeführt und zu Heizzwecken verwendet werden. In der Expansionskammer kann durch Abfuhr des Dampf/Luftgemisches auch Unterdruck erzeugt werden.The Expansion chamber is preferred with a compressed air valve and valve provided for steam supply and removal. The steam coming through the flash-off of extruded and expanded products in the expansion chamber created, can be discharged through the valve and used for heating purposes become. In the expansion chamber can by removing the steam / air mixture also negative pressure can be generated.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend in einem Ausführungsbeispiel anhand einer Zeichnung näher beschrieben. In der Zeichnung zeigen dieThe Invention is described below in an embodiment with reference to a Drawing described in more detail. In the drawing show the

1: eine erfindungsgemässe Einrichtung zur Herstellung von Aquafeed mit hohem Schüttgewicht, 1 a device according to the invention for the production of Aquafeed with high bulk density,

2: eine Glasübergangskurve für Stärke. 2 : a glass transition curve for strength.

Die Ausgangsstoffe, darunter ein ggf. hoch stärkehaltiger Stoff werden in die Arbeitskammer eines Extruders 1 gefüllt und in dieser behandelt und wird über eine Produktaustrittsdüse 2, die mit einem Schneidwerkzeug versehen sein kann, in eine Expansionskammer 8 ausgetragen. Unter Zugabe von Druckluft und Dampf (via Ventile 3 und 5) erfolgt eine kontrollierte Dekompression des Produktes in der Expansionskammer 8. Durch Regulierung des Arbeitsdruckes (max. 6 bar) in der Expansionskammer 8 kann der Siedepunkt des Wassers im Produkt eingestellt werden und damit ein schlagartiges Austreten von Wasser gesteuert resp. verhindert werden.The starting materials, including possibly a high-starch substance are in the working chamber of an extruder 1 filled and treated in this and is via a product outlet nozzle 2 , which may be provided with a cutting tool, in an expansion chamber 8th discharged. With the addition of compressed air and steam (via valves 3 and 5 ) there is a controlled decompression of the product in the expansion chamber 8th , By regulating the working pressure (max 6 bar) in the expansion chamber 8th The boiling point of the water can be adjusted in the product and thus controlled a sudden escape of water resp. be prevented.

Aufgrund des hohen Arbeitsdruckes sowie einer hohen Arbeitstemperatur im Extruder 1 verbleibt das Wasser vor dem Übertritt in die Expansionskammer 8 im flüssigen Zustand. Gegenüber der Normalatmosphäre stellt sich bei erhöhtem Druck ein höherer Siedepunkt des Wassers ein.Due to the high working pressure and a high working temperature in the extruder 1 the water remains in the expansion chamber before crossing 8th in the liquid state. Compared to the normal atmosphere, a higher boiling point of the water arises at elevated pressure.

Ohne erhöhten Druck/Temperatur käme es beim Austritt aus dem Extruder 1 unter Normalatmosphäre in der Expansionskammer 8 zur Abkühlung des Produktes im Ergebnis eines Wasseraustrags. Ein solches Produkt wäre nicht weiter formbar, da es bereits im Glaszustand ist (siehe 2).Without increased pressure / temperature it would come out of the extruder 1 under normal atmosphere in the expansion chamber 8th for cooling the product as a result of a water discharge. Such a product would not be malleable, since it is already in the glass state (see 2 ).

Deshalb müssen Temperatur und Dampfdruck so eingestellt sein, dass das Produkt in einem gummiartigen Zustand zwischen der Glasübergangstemperatur Tg und Schmelztemperatur Tm verbleibt. In diesem Zustand verbleibt das Produkt viskoelastisch in der Expansionskammer 8 und ist weder zu kalt noch zu trocken für eine nachfolgende Formung in der Exzenterschneckenpumpe 10.Therefore, the temperature and vapor pressure must be set so that the product remains in a rubbery state between the glass transition temperature Tg and the melting temperature Tm. In this state, the product remains viscoelastic in the expansion chamber 8th and is neither too cold nor too dry for subsequent shaping in the progressive cavity pump 10 ,

Die Expansionskammer 8 ist via Produktaustrittsdüse 2 resp. Produktaustrittsöffnung 9 druckfest vom Extruder 1 resp. der Exzenterschneckenpumpe 10 getrennt.The expansion chamber 8th is via product outlet nozzle 2 respectively. Product outlet opening 9 pressure-resistant from the extruder 1 respectively. the eccentric screw pump 10 separated.

In Verbindung mit der Formung des Produkts in der nachfolgenden Exzenterschneckenpumpe 10 kann die Produktdichte und damit dessen Sinkfähigkeit geregelt werden.In connection with the shaping of the product in the following eccentric screw pump 10 the product density and thus its sinkability can be regulated.

Auf das Formwerkzeug 11 und die Schneideinheit 12 kann ein Probensammler folgen um eine kontinuierliche Produktkontrolle zu gewährleisten.On the mold 11 and the cutting unit 12 may be followed by a sample collector to ensure continuous product control.
