Rice Noodle Die Selection Guide
Many rice noodle production problems are not caused by the machine, but by choosing the wrong die.
This page summarizes the 5 key points you must understand to select the right rice noodle / rice vermicelli die for stable production and good market acceptance.
The Die Is Not an Accessory — It Is the Core
The machine determines how much you can produce
The die determines whether your product can be sold
Most common issues come from improper die selection:
Uneven thickness, broken strands
Rough surface, sticky texture
Frequent clogging and downtime
👉 Over 80% of quality problems are directly related to die design and matching.
First, Define What Product You Want to Make
Before choosing a die, be clear about your target product:
Product shape
Round rice noodles / vermicelli
Flat noodles / wide rice sheets
Common diameter references
0.8–1.0 mm: Thin vermicelli (fast cooking)
1.2–1.5 mm: Mainstream fresh rice noodles
1.8–2.2 mm: Thick noodles / dry rice noodles
⚠️ Same diameter does NOT guarantee the same texture or stability — die structure matters.
A Good Die Must Meet These 3 Standards
1️⃣ Stable extrusion structure
Proper hole length design
Smooth internal transitions
High hole size consistency
2️⃣ Durable material for continuous operation
High-strength alloy steel or premium stainless steel
Suitable for high temperature, high pressure, long-term production
3️⃣ Low clogging & easy cleaning
High inner surface finish
Longer continuous running time
👉 For factories, stability means lower production cost.
The Die Must Match Raw Material & Process
A die alone cannot solve everything. It must match:
Rice variety (new rice / old rice)
Slurry grinding fineness
Cooking temperature and pressure
Many "poor noodle results" are not die defects, but process mismatch.
✔ Professional suppliers usually provide:
Die selection recommendations
Basic process parameter guidance
Ask These 5 Questions Before You Buy
Before placing an order, confirm:
1️⃣ Do you have successful cases with the same noodle size?
2️⃣ Can you provide real extrusion / noodle output videos?
3️⃣ What is the normal service life of the die?
4️⃣ Do you support customization and spare dies?
5️⃣ Do you provide die + process guidance?
Suppliers who can clearly answer these questions are usually reliable partners.
