Abstract

The production system is redesigned to cope with the increase in cake handling. The Delft Systems Approach is used to analyse and design the functions of the cocoa processor. Silo design principles are used to design the mass flow cake silos for the process. The redesigned production system is capable of increasing the powder output to meet the future demand of powder.
