Seed or grain cleaners are suitable for all types of grains,
seeds, pulses, rice, wheat, oat, beans, barley etc. Grain processing machinery is a multi functional unit which
performs operations like screening, grading, stone removing and winnowing (method
to separate grain from chaff). This is the most advanced and suitable machinery
for separating heavy metals, glass, stones, pebbles and other impurities from
grains and other granular substances.
Air-screen separator is the key method for seed cleaning. The
combination of gravity, air and screens are used to separate out seeds based on
shape, size and density. These commonly used units are available in huge variety
of models with 2-8 vibrating screens. The cleaning principles are the same in
all the cases. The material like grain, seeds, rice, barley etc. are fed into
the hopper where they are evenly divided with the help of a feed roller and shifted
via a controlled entrance on the top sieve.
With the use of air trunk, the grains are subjected to
primary aspiration to drain off dust, chaff, sand, straw, or deceased grains. After
this, for separation depending on size, width, and shape, the material is
passed through sieve layer. The graded material is then shifted to air sifter
and aspiration chamber where remaining light particles are drained off by a
strong flow of air. Finally, the graded material and the impurities are
automatically released in different chutes.
The destoner machine like grain processing machinery can effectively separate the light stones
which has the similar granularity with cereal granules.
