Engineering high-performance coconut processing machinery that drives efficiency, scalability, and sustainability for businesses across the globe.
Cibus Industries’ approach to deshelling automation starts with the recognition that this is one of the most manually taxing stages in the coconut processing line. Our engineering team focuses on precision-mechanical dynamics - designing blade alignments, kernel preservation systems, and adaptive shell removal mechanisms that ensure consistent performance across varying coconut sizes and shell hardness levels. In the fabrication workflow, we treat every desheller unit as a standalone mechanical project, calibrating torque ratios, drive shaft tolerances, and blade curvature based on projected throughput. Rather than mass-producing to a single standard, we tailor motor speeds, safety enclosure access points, and emergency stop integrations based on plant ergonomics and operational rhythm.
At Cibus, we treat deshelling as more than a step it’s the foundation of precision processing. Every machine is built to protect the purity of the kernel from the very first cut.
In our quality trials, we use actual tender and mature coconuts to simulate batch variation and shell toughness, evaluating output accuracy, rejection rate, and operator handling feedback. This hands-on, trial-based refinement ensures the machine performs not just on specs, but in real-world conditions where reliability and safety matter. The result is a rugged, high-performance desheller that reduces labor dependency, protects the integrity of the coconut kernel, and maintains steady output - even across multi-shift operations.
Each deshelling system we ship is backed by custom integration support, allowing easy retrofitting into legacy lines or seamless onboarding within new, turnkey plant environments. From smart start-up routines to preventive maintenance planning, our after-sales engineering team works directly with your floor supervisors to maximize uptime and system longevity. Over the years, we've also optimized blade change protocols and access design to cut maintenance downtime by nearly 40% compared to conventional deshelling units. Whether you're scaling up production or replacing outdated equipment, the Cibus deshelling machine becomes more than just a tool - it becomes a dependable link in your processing chain that adds precision, repeatability, and long-term value to your operations.
