Pepper powder manufacturing method and pepper powder manufacturing system {Pepper powder manufacturing method and Pepper powder manufacturing system}

The present invention relates to a red pepper powder manufacturing method and a red pepper powder manufacturing system.

Typically, red pepper powder is manufactured to have a predetermined particle size by drying red peppers, putting dried red peppers into a grinder, and grinding them several times.

During the process of harvesting and drying peppers, if various foreign substances are mixed into the peppers and these foreign substances are not washed, various foreign substances are crushed together with the peppers and various foreign substances or residues are introduced into the produced red pepper powder, causing many hygiene problems. .

In addition, since the roll mill grinder of the grinder that grinds red pepper is made of metal, iron powder worn by friction during the production of red pepper powder may be mixed into the red pepper powder, which may cause food safety problems.

Therefore, in the process of producing red pepper powder, there is a need for technology to produce hygienically excellent red pepper powder by washing various foreign substances in advance, removing and sterilizing metal materials.

When red pepper powder (I) is supplied to each roll mill crusher, it passes through the anti-loading rod 510, enters between a pair of crushing rolls 530, and in the process of passing through the pair of crushing rolls 530, Crushing is accomplished by grooves 531 on the surface of the crusher. Additionally, the groove portion 531 is formed to have a predetermined depth and width. Thereafter, the red pepper powder (I') that has passed through the pair of crushing rolls 530 has an entire surface 555 provided as a flat surface, passes through a pair of pressurizing rolls 550 rotating at a predetermined distance, and is pressurized. The roll 550 has no grooves that collide with red pepper powder, and has a surface 555 whose entire area is a flat surface.

That is, as the red pepper powder passes through the roll mill grinder, the crushing roll 530 serves to tear the red pepper powder, and the pressure roll 550 serves to press the red pepper powder.

In addition, the rotation bar 511 of the stacking prevention bar 510 has a shape extending along the direction of the rotation axis of the crushing roll. Additionally, in the anti-stack bar 510, at least two collision bars 512 have different lengths.
