Superior quality starter fish feed at commercially competitive costs.

The revolutionary Sphere-izer Agglomeration System™ (SAS™) is designed to produce starter fish feeds with nutritionally homogenous particles sized as small as 300 microns. The SAS™ process produces particle sizes smaller than traditional single or twin screw extrusion technologies. 

A mixed and pulverized formulation passes through a low shear, low temperature extrusion process where it is conditioned and compressed to form agglomerated strands. The strands enter the Sphere-izer™, a sizing and shaping device that breaks the strands into small individual agglomerations and shapes them into spherical particles. The spheres pass through a dryer/cooler unit where excess moisture is removed and the particles are cooled. The spheres pass through a screener for size classification.

Agglomerated strands are produced utilizing a low shear, low heat extrusion process.

Agglomerations are sized and shaped utilizing a high speed centrifugal process.

A full scale production system is available at Extru-Tech, Inc.® for product development, customer demonstration, and customer training.
