Textured Protein / Pulled Protein / High Moisture Protein Production Line Solution

Fully Automatic Plant-Based Meat & Soy Protein Processing Equipment

Jinan Saixin Machinery Co., Ltd. offers an advanced Textured Protein, Pulled Protein, and High Moisture Protein Production Line designed for the efficient manufacturing of textured vegetable protein (TVP), soy protein chunks, fibrous plant-based meat, meat analogs, and high-moisture protein products. Utilizing advanced twin-screw extrusion technology and segmented pressure-enhancing screw design, the production line creates products with a dense, fibrous, and realistic meat-like texture.Using soybean meal and plant-based protein ingredients as primary raw materials, the system provides precise control over temperature, pressure, and shear force during extrusion, ensuring consistent product quality, excellent texture, and high production efficiency.

Advanced Protein Extrusion Technology

The production line adopts a specialized segmented pressure-increasing screw structure that significantly improves internal extrusion pressure and shear force. This technology transforms plant proteins into structured fibers with the appearance, texture, and mouthfeel similar to traditional meat products.

The finished textured protein can be:

• Seasoned with oil and flavors to produce ready-to-eat protein snacks.

• Processed into granules or pieces for use in vegetarian and plant-based food products.

• Used as an ingredient in products such as vegetarian sausages, meat alternatives, burgers, and other protein-rich foods.

Complete Textured Protein Production Process

1. Raw Material Mixing

Soybean meal and other plant protein powders are accurately mixed to achieve a uniform and consistent raw material blend.

2. Extrusion & Expansion

The mixture passes through a high-performance protein extruder where heat, pressure, and mechanical shear convert the raw material into a fibrous, meat-like protein structure.

3. Drying

The drying system reduces moisture content to improve shelf life, maintain product stability, and achieve the desired texture.

4. Cooling

The final product is cooled under controlled conditions before packaging or further seasoning and processing.

Intelligent Automation & Smart Manufacturing

The production line can be equipped with a fully automatic intelligent electrical control system, allowing manufacturers to achieve automated operation by simply setting production parameters. The equipment can also be connected to a smart factory monitoring system for real-time production management, increased efficiency, consistent product quality, and reduced labor costs.Its stable performance, energy-efficient design, and reliable operation make it an ideal solution for food companies expanding into the rapidly growing plant-based protein and alternative meat market.
