Tapioca Chips Production Process and Machinery
As a kind of root vegetable, cassavas are processed into chips just like producing potato chips from potatoes. To obtain optimum end product, each process is vital in itself.
- Sorting and grading. At first, when the cassavas arrive in factory, they are sorted and graded, removing defective ones. This sorting and grading process can be done both mechanically and manually. At times, workers will trim or cut the cassavas into halves if they are too big to process. Our sorting and grading machine can do the job effectively and efficiently.
- Washing and peeling. Then the cassavas will be washed and peeled. For small production, this washing and peeling process can be done by human labor, while machines are used in large scale cassava chips plant. For our washer and peeler, it is integrated into one machine. With roller brushes and spraying water, the washer and peeler can do the job in an effective way with less use of energy.
- Thirdly, the washed and peeled cassavas will be cut into thin slices with regular shapes. Usually the cassava slices are often soaked into water when they are cut. Our cassava cutting machine can cut cassavas into thin slices with uniform shapes and adjustable thickness.
- Blanching. Then the following step is to blanch these cassava slices. Blanching is important in that it can remove extra starch, preserve desirable color, and eliminate potential bacteria. Our blancher machine allows you to control the temperature of water and blanching time.
- De-watering. Since there is extra water on surfaces of cassava chips after blanching, it is necessary to dry them up before frying. Our dehydration machine uses vibration system, which can drain off water without damage to the cassava chips.
- Frying. The next is frying process, in which cassava slices are deep fried in high temperature oil. Our cassava chips fryer machine allows for precise oil temperature control, adjustable belt speed, and fast removal of particles. All these combined can ensure you get quality end products with less use of water and energy.
- De-oiling. Since there is extra oil on the surface of fried cassava chips, it is necessary to remove it by de-fatting machine. Through vibrating, our deoiling machine can remove extra oil effectively with minimum damage to the products.
- Flavoring. To make them delicious, flavors are added to plain cassava chips. Our flavoring mixer machine can spread the flavors evenly on the products, due to its smart design.
- Packaging. The final stage is packing. It is vital for prolonging product shelf life, it can also serve as a strong promotion tool. Our cassava chips packaging machine can pack the cassava chips efficiently with no damage to the products.
