Automatic Pulper Tank

A pulper is a machine designed to remove pulp (i.e. the soft flesh) from�agricultural�produce. For example, in�coffee�growing the ripe red�cherries�are picked from the coffee bushes and before�fermentation�and later drying the soft pulp needs to be removed (otherwise a potentially uncontrollable fermentation/rot will occur). In the case of coffee the pulping is normally done in a pulper that is either hand-cranked or engine-driven; the beans are emptied into an elevated�hopper�and then dropped through a narrow slot within which they come into contact with a rotating spiked drum that removes the pulp or flesh.
