Integrated Garri Processing Unit from Nigerian Branch office

Integrated Garri processing unit from Henan Jinrui’s Nigerian branch office adopts fully automatic processing technology to address clients’ issues on gari production. The garri processing line integrates cleaning, grating, dewatering, roasting, sieving and packing into a complete unit, aiming to to seek high-quality production, reduce investment cost, and pursue fat profit. Next we will introduce this integrated garri processing unit to you.

1. Cleaning

Cleaning stage in the integrated garri processing unit is to remove dirties on cassava tubers and keep food safe. In our fully automated garri processing line, cassava tubers are thoroughly cleaned by dry sieve, paddle washer, and cassava peeler to remove dirt, sand, and peels, so that the raw materials can meet the highest hygiene standards before moving on to the next stage.

2. Grating

After cleaning, the cassava tubers are transferred to specialized graters. In the integrated garri processing unit, these machines shred the cassava into fine pieces, which is a crucial step in preparing the tubers for fermentation. The graters used in the process are typically made of durable, food-safe materials such as stainless steel, which not only ensures long-term reliability but also maintains the hygiene of the product. The grating process is performed with precision to achieve a uniform consistency, making it easier for the cassava to undergo fermentation and subsequent processing stages. Advanced graters in automated systems ensure speed and efficiency, allowing for a continuous flow of raw material through the production line.

3. Fermentation

Once the cassava is grated, it is placed into a fermentation chamber. This is a critical stage in garri production, as fermentation allows for the development of the unique characteristics of garri, including flavor, texture, and safety. During the fermentation process, the grated cassava undergoes a controlled chemical transformation, which typically lasts anywhere from 24 to 72 hours, depending on the specific process parameters. The fermentation chamber is equipped with temperature and humidity control systems, ensuring that the ideal conditions are maintained throughout the fermentation period. This process helps to break down toxic substances, such as cyanide compounds, in the cassava, making the final product safe for consumption.

4. Dewatering

After fermentation, it comes to the dewatering stage. In the integrated garri processing line, the hydraulic presses play a role to reduce moisture content of wet garri. This step is essential to prepare the product for roasting, as too much moisture would affect the texture and quality of the final garri.These machines efficiently extract excess water from the cassava, ensuring that the remaining mass is firm and ready for the next stage. The dewatering process is carefully controlled to ensure that the cassava maintains its integrity and quality throughout.

5. Roasting

The dewatered cassava is then moved to large roasting pans, where it is roasted at precise temperatures for a specific amount of time. Roasting is a critical step that gives garri its distinctive flavor and texture. The temperature and roasting time must be carefully controlled to ensure that the garri is neither undercooked nor overcooked. The roasting process also contributes to the final color and taste of the garri, which are important factors in its marketability. Our automatic system ensures consistent and uniform roasting, resulting in high-quality garri production.

6. Grinding and Sieving

After roasting, the garri is passed through a sieving system to remove any large particles, foreign matter, or inconsistencies in size. The sieving process ensures that the garri has a fine, consistent texture, which is essential for both the appearance and taste of the final product.

7. Packaging

The final step in the garri processing line is packaging. In the integrated garri processing unit, packaging is done using modified atmosphere packaging. The automated packaging system ensures that the garri is sealed in a hygienic and secure manner, preserving its freshness and quality for longer periods.
