VAJRA – CTC

VAJRA is a state of the art CTC machine designed to maximize tea quality and production with lower power consumption

Description

VAJRA CTC has been conceptualized ans designed through continous R & D and perseverance to achive highest standards of engineering and performance. With a lower height, heavy pedestal and the shortest available span of any vibrtions. It delivers high capacity with substantial power saving and low maintenance cost. The CTC machine essentially consist of two counter rotating toothed rollers of equal diameters. Depending upon the processing capacity required, rollers with different width are used i.e 36 to 52 inches. The two reollers rotate at different speeds. A slow speed roller; high speed roller ratio of 1:10 with speed s between 70:700 rpm and 100:1000 rpm have good effect. The slow speed roller acts initially as a conveyor apart from providing a surface for cutting. In order to derive the maximum benifit of a good cut, the drop point should be adjusted behind the crown of the slow speed roller, so that the leaf is conveyed in to the cutting area.
