MAESTRO – Rotovane

This is a maceration equipment, which is used as a pre-conditioner for withered leaf prior to process in main CTC line

Description

ROTOVANE consist of a cylindrical drum of a diameter of 200 cm, 380 cm or 460 cm, depending on the capacity. Inside the circumference of the drum, the resistors are fittred as appropriate distances. The main shaft which rotates inside the drum which has vanse at equal intervals. There is a worm arrangement in the main shaft which facilitates forward motion of the leaves in to the drum. Ther leaves are crushed in between the vanes and resistors and dischsrged through the diaphradm. The RPM of rotovane ranges from 30 to 35.

* Strengthened Gable desing incorporates heavy duty Taper Roller Bearing in place of conventional brass brushing.

* Rotor assembly is much heavier to withstand more load.

* Wear resistant stainless steel barrel for longer life

*Barrel removal arrangement and insertion mechanism is provided on the front support bracket of the machine.

* Heavy duty MS pedestalto eliminate vibrations.

* Barrel manufactured from stainless steel 304 plate (10 mm thickness) with SS vanes + resistors.

* Gear mechanism for easy barrel removal and cleaning * Compact drive system with bearings

* Standard lris plate attachment for discharge
