For the first time, the patented PolyCool 1000 allows a throughput of more than 1000 kg per hour. The individual cooling circuits can be controlled independently. This high-throughput cooling die can withstand pressure of up to 50 bar. It cools the extrudate down from around 150 ºC to below boiling point. The cooling die has an electro-polished surface and meets all hygienic design standards.

Our multifunctional PolyTwin, EcoTwin and CompacTwin twin-screw extruders offer flexible, reliable 24/7 processing for your meat substitutes, breakfast cereals, food ingredients, pet food and aqua feed products.

Our high-performance PolyCool 500 matches the standards of medium industry-scale production with the ability to deliver a throughput of about 500 kg/h for different ingredients and novel textures. Through its hygienic wing door design and the excellent accessibility the PolyCool is easy to maintain and operate, and maximizes food safety.

PolyCool 50 is excellent for research purposes and product development with a throughput of 50 kg/h. This level of throughput allows the investigation of different recipes and process parameters without requiring enormous amounts of raw materials. Our cooling die is designed to mimic meaty and fish-like textures.

Use our application centers worldwide to test new product ideas and production processes without interrupting your main production. Our test centers are designed for food processing.

The Bühler global application center network is up and running. Even with global restrictions due to Covid19, Bühler has become particularly adept at performing trials with customers, either virtually or within a carefully managed “bubble.”
