MIXER WHOLE BEAN ROASTED COFFEE

Once the roasted coffee has been sent to the allocated silo, a roasted batching program takes over; this is very similar to the green coffee batching menu.
From the roasting menu, a schedule can be obtained to make blends by using the computer to introduce the correct percentages of each roasted product into the special blender.
Unlike green coffee, roasted beans are extremely fragile and when allocated to “whole bean” use, are conveyed by pneumatic pulse conveyors with electronic speed control.
The blender is designed to handle the roasted beans with care, as are our roasted bean silos.
Alternatively, if the blender is not required it can be excluded and the computer sends the product to the next phase, whether this is grinding or packing.

– Roasted coffee silos (From 4 to 18 silos each battery)
– Weighing-batching machine
– Discontinuous mixers fed from a batching unit

Mission of Scolari Engineering

• DESIGN OF AN INTEGRATED MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS WITH TOMORROW’S TECHNOLOGY” TO PRODUCE PERFECT COFFEE AT LOWER COSTS.
• NOT A GROUP OF INDIVIDUAL MACHINES BUT A “MANUFACTURING SYSTEM” WITH STANDARDIZED DATABASE THAT CAN BE READ AND WRITTEN FROM A MANAGEMENT HOST.

OUR GOALS
• Full plant automation from green to packaging.
• No manual movement of the coffee.
• Lot Tracking up to the stores. (SDB)
• Design and production of equipments in skids fully wired and tested before shipping, easy and fast to assembly.

SCOLARI NOT AS A SUPPLIER OF GOODS AND EQUIPMENTS, BUT PARTNER IN:
– PLANT DESIGN
– INTEGRATION WITH EXISTING SYSTEM
– DEVELOP NEW COFFEE PRODUCTS
– INTEGRATION WITH CLIENT ERP

Continuos improvement:
– New software release every 3 months
– Integration of the roasters with new pollution control devices.
– Safety improvements
– Energy recovering

SAFETY
• Easy trouble shooting software with over than
1000 machine with fault detection. The operator
can obtain training and help in real time.
• Safety devices
• Study on explosion hazard of coffee dust
• Training tools:
– GT-pro simulator

PLANT DESIGN
• Plant Design by “trains”
• We desing plants that can be modified adding
new equipments to follow new needs from
the market.
• Degassing silos for automatic feeding of the
packaging machines. Already installed in many
plants – ROI

FLEXIBILITY – JUST IN TIME
