Shuliy\u2019s automatic cocoa bean belt dryer<\/mark><\/strong> can dry fresh cocoa beans efficiently. It provides high-efficiency, uniform, and continuous drying, suitable for medium to large cocoa processing plants and export-oriented businesses.<\/p>

Drying is a crucial step in cocoa processing. Freshly fermented cocoa beans usually have a moisture content of 55%\u201360%, which must be reduced below 7%<\/strong><\/mark> <\/strong>to meet the requirements for shelling, grinding, and storage. Traditional sun drying is greatly affected by weather and can cause mold, uneven drying, and unstable quality.<\/p>

Working Principle<\/h2>

Cocoa beans are evenly spread on the stainless steel mesh belt by the feeder of the cocoa bean belt dryer. As the belt slowly moves into the drying chamber, hot air passes through the beans from top to bottom or bottom to top, quickly removing moisture. The humid air is expelled by an exhaust fan, allowing continuous circulation drying.<\/p>

The drying temperature can be controlled (50\u2013120\u202f\u00b0C), and the airflow and belt speed can be adjusted based on the beans\u2019 moisture, variety, and drying requirements, ensuring every bean is heated evenly.<\/p>
