Release time：2026-04-02
In December 2025, Guoxin Group conducted a comprehensive trial run in Indonesia to demonstrate a fully integrated processing chain for the coconut industry. The project addresses the historical bottleneck in the Indonesian market: the labor-intensive transition from whole coconut opening to industrial-scale drying.
Client Requirements:
Full-Chain Automation: Eliminating manual de-shelling and hand-loading.
Consistent Output: Ensuring the coconut meat (copra) is dried immediately after opening to prevent acidification.
Industrial Scalability: A system capable of processing $15,000\text{ kg}$ of fresh coconut per day.
Integrated Solution Configuration
Unlike standalone machines, this integrated solution synchronizes the mechanical opening process with the thermal dehydration phase.
Primary Processing Unit: Automated Coconut Opening & Splitting Station—designed to handle variable fruit sizes with precision.
Core Dehydration Unit: Guoxin Multi-layer Continuous Mesh Belt Dryer ($2.0\text{m}$ width).
Heat Management: Clean-energy Heat Pump / Biomass hybrid system (utilizing coconut shells) for $24/7$ operational stability.
Conveyor Integration: Automated lifting conveyors connecting the opening station directly to the dryer’s spreading system.

Sequence: Whole Coconut Intake → Automated Opening/Splitting → Meat Extraction → Mechanical Shredding (Optional) → Continuous Mesh Belt Drying → Regulated Cooling → Final Quality Inspection.
👉20-Ton Per Day Continuous Coconut Meat Drying & Shredding Line – Indonesia
| Parameter | Value / Technical Specification |
|---|---|
| Processing Capacity | 15,000 kg (15 Tons) per day |
| Material State | Fresh Coconut Meat (Half-shells / Sliced) |
| Opening Efficiency | 600 - 800 units per hour (Automated) |
| Moisture Control | Final moisture stabilized at 6% - 8% |
| Drying Temperature | Constant 65°C for color preservation |
| Energy Consumption | 30% reduction vs. decentralized processing |
Operational Efficiency:
By integrating the opening and drying stages, the client reduces the “material exposure time” from hours to minutes. This drastically lowers the Free Fatty Acid (FFA) content, qualifying the resulting copra for the Premium Edible Oil market rather than industrial-grade oil.
Investment Recovery:
The labor savings from the automated opening station alone contribute to a $25\%$ reduction in daily Opex. Combined with the increased yield of high-grade copra, the estimated Return on Investment (ROI) is 12 months.
Local Policy Adaptability:
This solution aligns with the Indonesian government’s push for Industrial $4.0$ in Agriculture. By adopting automated, low-emission processing, facilities are better positioned to receive regional export tax rebates and green-manufacturing certifications.
“Watching the trial run in December was a turning point for our production plan. Seeing the coconuts move from the opening machine directly onto the mesh belt without manual intervention proved the efficiency of the Guoxin solution. The color of the meat remains white and clean, which is exactly what the international market demands.” — Operations Lead, Sulawesi Coconut Hub.
Site Assessment: Analysis of local coconut varieties and factory layout.
Solution Customization: Engineering the interface between opening and drying units.
On-site Trial Run: December 2025 commissioning and parameter calibration.
Full Lifecycle Support: Remote monitoring and local spare parts availability in Indonesia.
