Chaff conveying system for coffee roasters
Efficiently manage coffee chaff with an integrated solution that transports, compacts, and monitors debris to enhance production safety and streamline waste handling.

Conveys and Compacts Coffee Chaff
The Chaff Conveying System from Scolari Engineering efficiently manages coffee processing waste with a sophisticated integration of conveyors, cyclones, and compactors. It minimizes fire hazards and clogging through continuous transport of chaff, utilizing a robust mechanical vibrator, elastic union, and pneumatic shutter. This system is ideal for green and roasted coffee applications, producing end-products like coffee chaff briquettes for sustainable disposal. Its automated and continuous operation ensures a streamlined production flow, capable of handling various product types such as solids, powders, and granules. Built with durable materials, it withstands demanding industrial conditions and supports integration into existing coffee processing lines. The system’s design promotes easy maintenance and aligns with safety and environmental standards, ensuring long-term reliability and compliance.
