Climbing the stairs, there’s a soy milk storage tank on the platform. Next to the tank, a device automatically adds coagulant, turning the soy milk into tofu pudding. Below, a valve is manually opened, and the tofu pudding falls through a pipe into a tofu pressing basket. The basket is then manually covered, and a conveyor belt transports it to a pneumatic press. The machine automatically presses the tofu using a step-by-step process, resulting in shaped tofu at the end of the conveyor belt. The tofu is then removed, and the cover and pressing basket are placed back onto the lower conveyor belt and transported to the beginning of the machine.
