Tea Rolling Machines: Small vs Medium vs Large Capacity Models for Different Tea Types

2025-12-16 17:00:53

1. Small Capacity Models: Precision for Boutique Tea

Best for: Family farms, laboratories, and high-end small batch production.

If you are processing premium batches where delicate handling is required, small rolling machines are your best allies. These models are compact, energy-efficient, and often run on standard 220V power, making them accessible for smaller facilities.

  • DL-6CRT-25 & DL-6CRT-30:

    • Dimensions: Compact footprint (approx. 700-1000mm width).

    • Power: Low consumption (0.37 kW - 0.55 kW).

    • Capacity: Ideal for batches ranging from 3kg to 8kg.

    • Application: Perfect for experimental batches or high-value teas like artisanal Green Tea where leaf integrity is paramount.

2. Medium Capacity Models: The Factory Standard

Best for: Medium-sized tea factories and cooperative productions.

For businesses scaling up from manual processing to automation, the medium range offers the perfect balance between throughput and control. These machines typically require 380V industrial power and feature larger rolling discs for better leaf circulation.

  • DL-6CRT-40, DL-6CRT-45 & DL-6CRT-50:

    • Drum Diameter: 400mm - 500mm.

    • Power: 1.1 kW - 2.2 kW.

    • Capacity: Capable of handling approx. 15kg to 25kg per batch.

    • Feature: These models are heavy enough to provide sufficient pressure for Black Tea processing (which requires heavier cell breakage) while remaining gentle enough for Oolong.

3. Large Capacity Models: Industrial Giants

Best for: Large-scale plantations and export-oriented mass production.

When daily output hits tons of fresh leaves, you need machines that can handle massive loads without compromising consistency. The large DL-6CRT series is built with robust gearboxes and heavy frames to withstand continuous operation.

DL-6CRT-65T

  • DL-6CRT-65 to DL-6CRT-90:

    • Rolling Disc Diameter: Up to 1540mm for the massive DL-6CRT-90.

    • Power: 3 kW - 5.5 kW heavy-duty motors.

    • Capacity: Ranges from ≥60kg up to ≥300kg per batch.

    • Efficiency: The DL-6CRT-90 features a unique design where both the drum and disc move, maximizing rolling efficiency for large volumes.

4. Specialized Rolling: Strip vs. Granular

Standard rolling machines (CRT series) are excellent for Strip-type teas (like most Black teas, Wuyi Rock tea, and some Green teas). However, if your product is Granular tea (like Iron Goddess/Tie Guan Yin or Gunpowder tea), you need specialized equipment.

  • Moon Type Tea Rolling Machine (DL-6CRT-30W): Designed specifically for granular shaping, utilizing a specialized disc and drum movement to curl leaves into tight pearls.

Conclusion

Selecting the right tea rolling machine depends on your "3 V's": Volume, Variety (Tea type), and Voltage availability.

  • Go Small (DL-6CRT-25/30) for artisan quality and 220V convenience.

  • Go Medium (DL-6CRT-45/50) for the sweet spot of commercial production.

  • Go Large (DL-6CRT-65+) for maximum industrial efficiency.
