Flaked Maize

Myande can provide steam-flaked corn production line with capacity ranging from 100tpd to 500tpd, with a process flow that includes cleaning, soaking, conditioning, flaking, and drying.

Flaked maize is mainly used as feed for ruminants such as beef cattle, cow, sheep, and horses. The corn pellets are softened by soaking, modified by steam heat treatment and then pressed into flakes of 0.4mm-2mm by flaking mills. Then the flaked maize is dried in the tube bundle dryer. The chemical structure of proteins in flaked maize is changed, thus facilitating absorption of starch in the rumen of ruminants.

In developed countries such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Australia, and the United States, the direct feeding method of steam-flaked corn is widely adopted in the livestock industry. This method not only saves resources but also improves production efficiency. As a new type of feed material, steam-flaked corn is gradually gaining recognition from both large-scale farms and individual breeders. This is because it not only reduces breeding costs and prevents livestock diseases but also increases economic benefits. The application of steam-flaked corn plays an immeasurable role in promoting the vigorous development of the livestock industry.
