Engineering high-performance coconut processing machinery that drives efficiency, scalability, and sustainability for businesses across the globe.
Cibus Industries’ Coconut Dehusking Machine is developed to automate the critical process of removing the fibrous outer husk from whole coconuts, preparing them for efficient shell cracking and deshelling. Utilizing precision-engineered husk-grip rollers, shear-bar mechanisms, and synchronized rollers, the machine delivers high husk-separation efficiency exceeding 90%, while minimizing damage and exposure to the valuable coconut kernel. Throughputs range from 200 to 1,000 nuts per hour, making it adaptable for both artisanal producers and large commercial operations. The system’s robust stainless-steel construction, combined with strategically placed safety guards and automated emergency stop functions, ensures operator safety and equipment durability in demanding industrial environments.
Effective dehusking is foundational to streamlining coconut processing, enabling seamless flow into shell cracking and kernel extraction.
During intensive operational testing, the dehusking machine processes coconuts across a spectrum of sizes and husk moisture contents, evaluating husk removal rate, fiber length retention, and kernel damage. These real-world trials confirm the machine’s ability to maintain continuous operation for extended shifts without blockages or performance degradation, with consistent husk separation even in wet or high-moisture conditions. Operator feedback contributes to ergonomic enhancements in feed and discharge areas, reducing manual handling and increasing throughput reliability.
Designed for integration, the machine features modular infeed and discharge conveyors, dust-extraction ducting, and customizable control panels compatible with plant-wide PLC and SCADA systems. Ease of maintenance is prioritized with quick-access bearing covers, blade replacement kits, and routine lubrication points clearly marked for efficient servicing.
With the Cibus Coconut Dehusking Machine, processors achieve reliable, high-capacity husk removal that reduces labor costs, improves downstream equipment efficiency, and enhances overall plant productivity.
