Automatic Tapioca Pearl Machine | 20-100Kg/h Boba Making Machine

With the global popularity of bubble tea and creative desserts, the automatic tapioca pearl machine has become a sought-after piece of equipment in food processing and beverage entrepreneurship. Specifically engineered to produce crystal-clear, chewy tapioca pearls, tangyuan, taro balls, and other spherical confections, this machine serves as an ideal production tool for tea shops, restaurant chains, and food processing plants.

Featuring advanced automation, the machine requires only pre-mixed dough to rapidly produce uniform tapioca pearls or tangyuan in consistent sizes. The process eliminates manual kneading, reducing labor costs while ensuring product hygiene and consistent quality.

Currently exported to Japan, South Korea, Thailand, the United States, Brazil, France, and other countries, this model has helped numerous businesses establish efficient, sustainable pearl food production lines.

Boba pearls making machine applications

This automatic tapioca pearl machine is suitable for processing various unfilled round pastries, such as:

• Beverage category: tapioca pearls, bubble pearls, and colored pearls for use in milk tea, fruit tea, and other beverages.
• Dessert category: taro balls, sweet potato balls, and purple sweet potato balls for use in dessert shops and ice cream parlors.
• Food processing: mass production of glutinous rice balls, sticky rice balls, rice cake balls, and similar items.

The machine supports diverse ingredients including tapioca starch, glutinous rice flour, taro starch, sweet potato starch, purple sweet potato starch, and cornstarch. Users can customize pearl diameter (6mm–25mm) and color to meet specific market and product line requirements.

How are tapioca pearls made commercially?

1. Ingredient preparation: mix cassava flour or glutinous rice flour with boiling water in the specified ratio. Use a mixer to thoroughly blend into a uniform dough.
2. Dough shaping: flatten the dough and place it into the machine’s main hopper. Simultaneously add dry flour on both sides to prevent sticking.
3. Automatic rolling and balling: the machine employs an internal roller compression and cutting system to automatically divide and roll the dough into uniform spherical products.
4. Automatic screening and discharge: formed pearls automatically fall into the screening compartment for dust removal. Finished products can be packaged directly or stored.

The entire process operates fully automatically. The automatic tapioca pearl machine features built-in emergency stop devices and an electronic control system, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

Recipe for making tapioca pearls

• 500g cassava powder can make 667g tapioca powder.
• 1500g cassava powder can make 2700g tapioca powder.
• the ratio of hot water to cassava powder is 5:2.
• it can be stored in the refrigerator for one month.

It should be noted that the proportion is not invariable. You can add more water according to your own needs.
