Green bean solution
A matched workflow for trimming, inspection, washing, surface-water removal, air drying and adjustable cutting.
Solution overview
The line starts with controlled feeding and trimming, moves through washing and rinsing, removes surface water with centrifugal dewatering and air drying, and finishes with cutting and discharge to packing or freezing.
Each stage is configured around your bean variety, incoming condition and target cut length so the finished product is clean, uniform and ready for the downstream pack.
Process flow
Incoming Material Preparation
An inclined elevator and controlled feeder present beans to the line while the front section removes field material and aligns beans for trimming.
Quality Control before Washing
Bean streams merge onto an inspection transfer where operators can remove any remaining foreign material before washing.
Primary Cleaning Stage
A bubble washing stage lifts and agitates beans in water to remove soil and dust, followed by a clean rinse before dewatering.
Post-wash Water Management
Continuous centrifugal dewatering removes surface water, then an air-drying section brings beans to the dry surface required for cutting and packing.
Finished Product Handling
The cutting section trims both ends and cuts beans to the target length before discharge to packing, freezing or further processing.

FAQ
The reference configuration runs at 500–1,000 kg/h. Final capacity depends on bean variety, incoming condition and cut specification.
Yes, the cutting and discharge stage can be configured to feed an IQF freezer or a packing table. Tell us the downstream equipment during planning.
