Project Overview

In 2011, Lyure Machinery partnered with a leading tea processing facility in Hubei, China, to deploy an efficient processing line featuring one SLS-D10T screw press. The contract, signed and installed in 2011, enabled the client to process 200 tons of tea residue per day. This advanced system optimized residue crushing, dehydration, and solid-liquid separation, significantly enhancing the client’s production efficiency and material recovery.

Client Needs

The Hubei-based client, a key player in the tea processing industry, sought to modernize their processing line to handle tea residue effectively and improve operational efficiency. Their challenges included:

• High Moisture Content: Wet tea residue required effective dehydration to reduce volume and enhance downstream utilization or disposal.

• Operational Efficiency: The need for a compact, integrated solution to manage crushing, dehydration, and solid-liquid separation in a reliable system.

• Production Standards: A requirement to process 200 tons daily while maintaining consistent residue quality and adhering to industry standards.

Lyure’s Solution: SLS-D10T Screw Press

Lyure Machinery delivered a tailored solution with the SLS-D10T screw press, designed specifically for efficient tea residue dehydration:

• SLS-D10T Screw Press (Crushing and Dehydration): The SLS-D10T integrates residue crushing, high-pressure dehydration, and solid-liquid separation, achieving a moisture reduction rate of over 60% with its customizable mesh screen (0.4–2.0 mm). It is optimized for processing wet tea residue, ensuring effective material recovery for further use or disposal.

• Integrated Functionality: The system supports residue crushing, dehydration, and solid-liquid separation in a single, automated process, streamlining the processing line.

• Processing Capacity: Handles 200 tons per day, meeting the client’s processing requirements.

• Durability and Hygiene: Constructed from 304 stainless steel, the machine is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and compliant with food-grade and industrial standards.

• Automation: The SLS-D10T minimizes manual intervention, reducing labor costs and ensuring consistent output.

Implementation

• Contract Signed: 2011

• Installation Completed: 2011

• Location: Hubei, China

• Material Processed: Tea residue for dehydration

• Processing Capacity: 200 tons/day

• Machine Model: SLS-D10T (Crushing and Dehydration, 1 unit)

Lyure’s technical team completed the installation in 2011, providing comprehensive on-site training to ensure seamless integration into the client’s tea processing facility. The automated design of the SLS-D10T simplified operations and minimized downtime.

Results

Since its deployment in 2011, Lyure’s solution has delivered impressive results for the Hubei client:

• Effective Dehydration: Achieved a moisture reduction rate exceeding 60%, significantly reducing tea residue volume and improving downstream processing or disposal efficiency.

• Cost Efficiency: Automation and energy-efficient design cut operational costs by 18%.

• Consistent Quality: The system ensured consistent residue quality, meeting industry standards for further utilization or disposal.

• Reliable Production: The system consistently processed 200 tons daily, supporting the client’s operational demands.
