Product Description

Company Information:
Changzhou MADE Automation Co., Ltd. was established by a cadre of doctoral returnees who previously held senior engineering, scientific, and managerial roles in some of the world's Fortune 500 companies and R&D centers across the United States and Europe. Leaning heavily on their vast experience in industrial automation and rich partnerships with esteemed global technical elites and domestic universities, they aimed to create a unique high-tech industrial manufacturer.
The company has evolved into an amalgamation of design, production, and sales departments. In an ever-competitive environment, it has overcome numerous challenges and earned its customers' trust by upholding professionalism, harnessing advanced design philosophies, delivering reliable, high-quality products, and providing comprehensive customer services.
Changzhou MADE Automation specializes in drum dryers, food processing machinery, and packaging machines. Their overarching objective is to continually enhance service delivery and provide customers with solutions tailored to their specific needs.
The mainstay of their production is a comprehensive production line engineered for creating flour and flakes from rice, wheat, potato, yam, and more. Additionally, they offer separate units of the production line as per customers' requests.
Their offerings are characterized by two major process flows:
1.    The Rice and Wheat Flake Line, which turns rice and wheat into flakes. These can be combined with hot water to produce instant food for infants and babies. The process encompasses stages from the transportation and rinsing of raw materials, slurry formation, and drum dryer baking, to the final packaging of the finished products.
2.    The Potato and Yam Flake/Whole Powder Line, designed to produce from potatoes and yam. This flake or whole powder serves as a ready-to-use raw material for products such as mashed potatoes with original flavor and nutrients. The process flow includes stages like washing, skin steaming, peeling, slicing,blanching, steam cooking, drum dryer baking, and packaging.
In essence, Changzhou MADE Automation Co., Ltd. is a powerhouse in automation, carving a unique niche with its specialized production lines. They are committed to delivering high-quality products and superior customer service to meet the diverse needs of their clients.

Our production is mainly a complete production line for makingflakes from rice, wheat, potato, yam, etc. Process devices of the production lines can be provided separately as well.

There are two major process flows:

1. Rice and wheat flake line.(To produce flakes from rice and wheat. The flakes can be mixed with hot water to generate instant food for infants and babies.)

 

1. Potato and yam flake and powder line. (To produce starch from potatoes and/or yam. The starch can be used for ready-to-using raw materialof mashed potato and other products.) 

Steps to choose the equipment

1. What kind of product do you want to make? Rice/wheat flakes or potato/yam starch?
2. What's your expected throughput? How many finished products do you want to make hourly or daily? The production line can vary depending on the production capacity. The commonly used daily capacity is about 10 ~12 T/Day.
3. Is a turn-key or simi-manual line you preferred? Such as auto-weighing and packaging or manually bagging.

What's the budget to purchase the equipment?
The budget varies with the daily throughput you want. Typically, the rice/wheat production line is between $100K to $300K; the potato/yam production line is between $300Kto $800K.

What's the factory infrastructure requirement?

1. You need to have good floor space. Typically, a floor layout of 80mX20mX8(drum dryer section) is needed for equipment and 120mX20m is preferred for shop space.
2. You need to have a boiler. Typically, you need a boiler capacity of 4T/h to get 10T/daily throughput finished products.
3. You need to have sufficient electrical power. Typically, an electrical power capacity of 150 kW might be expected for the potato production line.
4. You need to have personnel specialized in the process and maintenance.
