Chili Shell Puncturing Machine

 

Machine Description

The Chili Shell Puncturing Machine is engineered for efficient pre-processing of chilies, particularly for shell puncturing. The system comprises two precision-aligned rollers rotating in opposite directions, each embedded with steel pins. These pins puncture the chilly shells. A set of separator pins is mounted to dislodge any residual chilies that may remain between the rollers.

Feeding Hopper

The feeding hopper is designed for continuous and controlled input of chilies into the puncturing zone. Its sloped geometry ensures uniform distribution across the roller surface, minimizing clogging and maximizing throughput.

Benefit:

• Ensures consistent feed rate

• Reduces manual handling

• Enhances operational efficiency

Collector Hopper

The collector hopper gathers the punctured chilies post-processing. Its design allows for easy transfer to subsequent machinery or manual sorting stations.

Benefit:

• Streamlines material flow

• Reduces handling time

• Supports integration with automated lines

Importance of Puncturing in Chili Processing

Puncturing is a critical step in chilly processing, especially for varieties with tough outer shells. By weakening the shell structure, the machine enables:

• Enhanced drying efficiency

• High quality and even drying
