Modern equipment for cassava flour processing

Cassava flour is widely used in people's daily life for making bread and cakes. With the increasing demand of cassava flour, the cassava flour processing equipment is much more important to produce high quality final product.

The modern cassava flour processing equipment adopts wet technology. After harvesting, fresh cassava tubers need washing, peeling, milling into pulp, dewatering, breaking and fine milling, high quality cassava flour drying, sieving and packaging. Compare to the traditional cassava flour processing technology, the modern equipment for cassava flour processing includes: cassava paddle washing, cassava cutter, cassava rasper, plate and frame filter press, flash dryer etc. let me introduce you about these machines more details:

Cassava paddle washing machine is different design with the one used in cassava flour processing line. It is designed in a special structure with one chamber in water and another without water, which will make cassava in a dry friction state and ensure more than 90% peeling rate of the second layer.

Cassava cutting machine: before rasper, the modern cassava flour processing equipment normally should match a cutting machine, which will cut cassava into 3cm~5cm small pieces. With the cutter machine, it will reduce the power consumption and increase the service life of rasper blades.

Rasper is also essential for modern cassava flour processing equipment. Because of high quality cassava flour fineness requirement. If using the normal hammer mill, it is very difficult to meet the standard.

Plate and frame filter press is to dewater the cassava pulp into cassava flour cake with around 40% moisture which is very important to control the moisture. So, normally we will match the fully automatic Diaphragm plate and frame filter presser. It don’t need manual work to operate it repeatly.

Flash dryer is the key and modern equipment for wet method cassava flour processing. Because the outside pressure is higher than pressure inside the heating pipe. Our flash dryer adopts the negative pressure system which avoids the cassava flour leaking phenomenon. At the same time, the negative pressure system will reduce the power consumption.
