Product overview

The key machine for starch release

The rasper is a key component in the cassava and potato starch process. It grinds roots and tubers into pulp, opening the material structure so starch can be released for further extraction.

Stamex developed the All New Rasper for high rasping efficiency over long production periods, with a robust rotor design, direct drive configuration, and heavy-duty stainless steel construction for demanding industrial operation.

Application

What the rasper does

The rasper grinds cassava roots, potatoes, and other tubers into pulp for starch extraction. This step helps release starch from the raw material before the slurry continues to separation, washing, and refining.

Key features

Engineered for efficient rasping

  • Direct drive configuration
  • High rotor speed and narrow rasping aperture
  • Adjustable cutter block for setting the distance to the rotor block
  • Adjustable sieve plate height for additional output control
  • One-piece forged hardened chromium steel rotor ring
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel rotor housing
  • Labyrinth shaft seal preventing product leakage
Rasping control

Adjustable components for precise output

These machine details show the adjustment points that control the rasping action. The cutter block can be set closer to or further from the rotor block, while the sieve plate height can also be adjusted. Together, these settings help tune the machine for the required output.
