LFM Delivers a 1 T/H Tiger Nut Butter Production Line in China

The project addresses key challenges in tiger nut butter production: maintaining consistent product quality, managing production hygiene, and improving safety traceability. 

From Raw Tiger Nuts to Finished Butter

The production line follows a complete processing sequence:

Cleaning → Destoning and Metal Detection → Roasting → Color Sorting → Primary Grinding → Secondary Grinding → Vacuum Deaeration

1. Cleaning removes impurities from incoming tiger nuts, while destoning and metal detection provide additional safeguards before further processing. These preparation stages help protect downstream equipment and establish a cleaner starting point for production.
2. Roasting develops the flavor of the tiger nuts and prepares them for subsequent processing. Color sorting then helps remove visibly unsuitable materials before grinding.
3. The prepared tiger nuts pass through primary grinding and secondary grinding to form butter with a finer, more uniform texture. Finally, vacuum deaeration helps remove entrapped air, supporting a more consistent product appearance and smoother handling during subsequent operations.

Coordinating Five Processing Stages Through PLC Control

The line integrates cleaning, roasting, primary grinding, secondary grinding, and vacuum deaeration. A PLC control system coordinates these stages, helping operators manage the production sequence from a central interface.

Real-Time V​isibility Across the Line

Operators can view temperature, equipment speed, material flow, weighing data, and conveying intervals during production. Having these parameters available together helps the team identify changes and assess whether upstream and downstream equipment are working in balance.

When monitored parameters move outside their configured limits, the system issues an alarm and makes adjustments according to programmed control logic. This supports timely intervention and more consistent process management.

For manufacturers evaluating complete tiger nut paste solution, the project highlights why equipment coordination deserves as much attention as individual machine capacity.

Supporting More Consistent Tiger Nut Paste Quality

Maintaining uniform results becomes challenging when roasting conditions, feed rates, or grinding settings vary.

In this project, primary and secondary grinding divide size reduction into two stages. This arrangement supports progressive processing, while coordinated feeding helps manage the transfer of material between machines.

Vacuum deaeration follows grinding to reduce entrained air in the paste. Final texture and processing settings should be confirmed through trials using the customer’s raw materials and product requirements.

When selecting a tiger nut butter production line, buyers should therefore consider the complete process alongside their target output.
