The cocoa pod splitting machine consists of a cocoa pod cutting machine and a cocoa bean & pod separation machine. It can cut open whole cocoa pods and automatically separate the cocoa beans from the cocoa pods.

Our cocoa pod splitter machine has a production capacity of 300-800 kg/h, suitable for cocoa processing plants of various sizes. The equipment operates stably, provides precise pod splitting, and has a low bean loss rate, significantly improving cocoa bean processing efficiency.

Advantages of cocoa pod opening machine

  • Precise pod opening, resulting in a low rate of cocoa bean damage.
  • Dual function of cutting and separating, minimizing manual intervention.
  • High processing efficiency and stable output (300-800 kg/h).
  • Roller screening structure for excellent separation results.
  • Parts in contact with cocoa beans are made of stainless steel, ensuring safety and hygiene.
  • The cocoa pod splitting machine has a mature structure and stable operation.
  • Simple operation, requiring only one worker.
  • Strong adaptability, capable of processing cocoa pods of different sizes.

What can cocoa pod splitting machine be used for?

  • Cocoa bean primary processing plant
  • On-site processing at cocoa plantations
  • Pre-export processing of cocoa beans
  • Pre-fermentation and drying processes for cocoa

The processed cocoa beans can also be directly used in subsequent processing, such as in the cocoa butter production line, providing high-quality raw materials for the entire production line.

Structure and work principle

Structure:

Our cocoa pod splitting machine mainly consists of two parts:

  • Cocoa pod cutting machine
  • Cocoa bean and pod separation machine

Work principle:

  1. खिलााना
    • The cocoa pods are manually arranged evenly and positioned, and fed into the cutting area using fruit clamps.
  2. Cocoa pod cutting
    • The cocoa pod cutting machine cuts the cocoa pods, acting only on the outer shell without damaging the cocoa beans.
  3. Pod and bean separation
    • The mixture enters a cocoa bean & pod separator machine. Automatic separation is achieved using a rotating drum screening structure.
  4. डिस्चार्ज
    • The separated cocoa beans and pods are discharged from different outlets.
