What are the latest cassava chips processing machine?

World production of cassava root was estimated to be 184 million tonnes in 2002, the majority of production is in Africa where 99.1 million tonnes were grown, 51.5 million tonnes were grown in Asia and 33.2 million tonnes in Latin America and the Caribbean. That means the cassava processing machine including latest cassava chips processing machine are urgently need for the cassava processing market.

In Nigeria, cassava roots are most be processed to garri by small farmers. In the past, small farmers mainly process cassava into garri by manual work, but this will need a lot labor cost, with the social development, our company have manufacture the lasted cassava chips processing machine to help Nigeria people to get large capacity and saving labor cost.

Cassava chips machine

Introduction of latest cassava chips processing machine:

Step 1: Cassava harvesting

Harvest matured cassava from the farm and load it to the processing shed immediately. If the quantity of cassava harvested can not be carried in the same day for logistic reasons do not detach the cassava from the stem and leaf until the vehicle to carry it is ready. That is to say, fermentation will not occur if the cassava is still attached to the leaf and stem even if it has been uprooted. But care must be taken not to bruise the cassava when uprooting it.

Cassava washing and peeling machine

Step 2: Cassava washing and peeling

Our cassava peeler could handling large capacity of cassava and well cleaning. This cassava peeler machine is with stable operation and easy maintenance etc. 1. peeling 2. washing 3. do not hurt the material 4. material to the next stage automatically.

Step 3: Cassava chipping

The next unit operation is chipping. As is common in household processing this is done by hand or by a simple machine which consists of a driven disc with radial chipping slots fitted with cutting blades. The type consists of a heavy rotating circular steel plate about 12 mm thick and 1m in diameter to which six blades are attached. The blade consists of a 1-1.5 mm steel plate that is corrugated at the cutting edge. The chipping wheels are usually mounted in wooden frames incorporating feed hoppers and driven by petrol, diesel, kerosine or electric motors.

Cassava drying machine

Step 4: Cassava drying

Drying methods can be classified according to the technological level and cost. Natural drying, one of the methods, is done on cement floors which are sometimes painted black for better absorption of radiant energy or on trays for artificial drying. In artificial heat dryers, all these parameters can be optimized to minimize the drying time and guarantee a high quality product.
