Optimizing Tobacco and Tobacco Leaf Processing with Lyure’s SLS-D25T Screw Press in Yunnan

Project Overview

In 2013, Lyure Machinery partnered with a leading tobacco processing facility in Yunnan, China, to deploy a high-efficiency processing line featuring two SLS-D25T Screw Presses. The contract, signed and installed in 2013, enabled the client to process 300 tons of tobacco and tobacco leaf per day. This advanced system streamlined material crushing, dehydration, and solid-liquid separation, significantly enhancing the client’s production efficiency and material recovery.

Client Needs

The Yunnan-based client, a major player in the tobacco processing industry, sought to modernize their processing line to handle large volumes of tobacco and tobacco leaf while improving operational efficiency. Their challenges included:

• High Moisture Content: Wet tobacco and tobacco leaf required effective dehydration to reduce volume and enhance downstream processing or storage.

• Operational Scalability: The need for a robust, integrated solution to manage crushing, dehydration, and solid-liquid separation in a high-capacity system.

• Production Standards: A requirement to process 300 tons daily while maintaining consistent material quality and adhering to industry standards.

Lyure’s Solution: SLS-D25T Screw Press

Lyure Machinery delivered a tailored solution with two SLS-D25T screw presses, designed specifically for high-capacity tobacco and tobacco leaf dehydration:

• SLS-D25T Screw Press (Crushing and Dehydration): Each SLS-D25T unit integrates material crushing, high-pressure dehydration, and solid-liquid separation, achieving a moisture reduction rate of over 65% with its customizable mesh screen (0.4–2.0 mm). The dual-unit configuration ensures reliable throughput for processing tobacco and tobacco leaf, optimizing material recovery for further processing or storage.

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

• Processing Capacity: Handles 300 tons per day, meeting the client’s high-volume processing requirements.

• Durability and Hygiene: Constructed from 304 stainless steel, the machines are corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and compliant with industrial standards.

• Automation: The SLS-D25T units minimize manual intervention, reducing labor costs and ensuring consistent output.

Implementation

• Contract Signed: 2013

• Installation Completed: 2013

• Location: Yunnan, China

• Material Processed: Tobacco and tobacco leaf for dehydration

• Processing Capacity: 300 tons/day

• Machine Model: SLS-D25T (Crushing and Dehydration, 2 units)

Lyure’s technical team completed the installation in 2013, providing comprehensive on-site training to ensure seamless integration into the client’s tobacco processing facility. The automated design of the SLS-D25T presses simplified operations and minimized downtime.

Results

Since its deployment in 2013, Lyure’s solution has delivered impressive results for the Yunnan client:

• Effective Dehydration: Achieved a moisture reduction rate exceeding 65%, significantly reducing material volume and improving downstream processing efficiency.

• Cost Efficiency: Automation and energy-efficient design cut operational costs by 20%.

• Consistent Quality: The system ensured consistent tobacco quality, meeting industry standards for further processing or storage.

• Reliable Production: The dual-unit system consistently processed 300 tons daily, supporting the client’s operational demands.

Client Feedback
