Project Overview

In 2024, Lyure Machinery collaborated with a leading plant extraction facility in Hunan, China, to deploy a state-of-the-art production line featuring seven specialized machines: one ED-D5T screw press, one LS-300 fiber filtration unit, one WLS-300 screw conveyor (14 meters), one conveyor silo, one inclined feeding screw, one crushing chamber, and one collection silo. The contract, signed in 2024, enabled the client to process 100 tons of plant material per day for high-value botanical extracts. This integrated system streamlined soaking and washing, crushing, fiber filtration, extraction, and material handling, significantly boosting production efficiency and extract quality.

Client Needs

The Hunan-based client, a key player in the botanical extract industry, aimed to modernize their production line to meet increasing demand for premium plant-based products. Their challenges included:

• Low Extraction Efficiency: Legacy equipment resulted in suboptimal yields, leading to significant material waste.

• Complex Material Handling and Processing: The need for an integrated system to manage material transport, crushing, filtration, and extraction seamlessly.

• Consistent Output: A requirement to process 100 tons daily while maintaining high-quality extracts and adhering to stringent food and pharmaceutical standards.

Lyure’s Solution: ED-D5T, LS-300, WLS-300, and Material Handling Systems

Lyure Machinery delivered a customized solution with seven advanced machines designed for efficient plant extraction:

• ED-D5T Screw Press (Squeezing Extraction): The ED-D5T performs cold-pressing extraction and squeezing, achieving a yield of over 65% with its customizable mesh screen (0.4–2.0 mm), ensuring high-purity extracts with minimal waste.

• LS-300 Fiber Filtration Unit (Fiber Filtration): The LS-300 efficiently filters fibrous residues post-extraction, delivering high-purity extracts and maintaining smooth material flow.

• WLS-300 Screw Conveyor (14-Meter Material Transport): The 14-meter WLS-300 ensures long-distance material transport, seamlessly connecting crushing, filtration, and extraction stages.

• Material Handling Units (Conveyor Silo, Inclined Feeding Screw, Crushing Chamber, Collection Silo): These units optimize material storage, inclined feeding, crushing, and post-crushing collection, ensuring efficient workflow and minimal manual handling.

• Integrated Functionality: The system supports soaking and washing, crushing, fiber filtration, squeezing extraction, and material handling, creating a cohesive production line.

• Processing Capacity: Handles 100 tons per day, meeting the client’s production requirements.

• Durability and Hygiene: Constructed from 304 stainless steel, all machines are corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and compliant with food and pharmaceutical safety standards.

• Automation: The fully automated system minimizes labor requirements, reducing operational costs and ensuring consistent performance.

Implementation

• Contract Signed: 2024

• Installation Completed: 2024

• Location: Hunan, China

• Material Processed: Plant material for botanical extracts

• Processing Capacity: 100 tons/day
