Cleaning of grains has always been an integral part of rice mill. When paddy comes to the mill from the fields, it contains lots of foreign materials, such as weed seeds, soil, stones, rope, hemp, straw and other non-grain materials etc. Pre-cleaning process removes the foreign materials from grain/raw paddy.
The machine is designed to remove all the impurities and increase the overall quality and storability of processed rice.
APIT’s pre-cleaners helps remove the foreign materials with ease to improve the efficiency of huller and milling recovery and it also helps in improving overall quality and quantity of the processing line and the product.
A rough cleaner in paddy processing is a machine used to remove large impurities like straw, stones, sticks, and other debris from harvested paddy before further processing stages. It plays an essential role in ensuring the quality of the paddy by eliminating contaminants that could interfere with subsequent operations like hulling and milling.
Key Features
The drying process involves heat and mass transfer between grains and drying air. LSU dryers are developed for paddy to ensure proper mixing of paddy & dry air to grain contact.
It is a continuous mixing type of dryer. The drier consists of a rectangular chambers, a holding bin, blower with duct, grain discharging mechanism, air heating system and a recirculation system.
The capacity of the drier varies based the variety and between the rice mills.
Recommended air flow rate is 60-70 m3/min/tonne. Air temperature are 60 & 85°C for raw & parboiled paddy. And Uniformly dried product can be obtained.
Batch-Wise Drying Systems
APIT provides advanced batch-wise drying systems like ZFD, LMD, and I5 models, along with moisture stabilization bins, designed to optimize the drying process for various grains.
Continuous Drying Systems
APIT’s continuous drying solutions, including LMD and I5 models, are engineered for large -scale operations, ensuring consistent moisture levels and high-quality output.
Day bins for storing paddy, or other grains, are designed with specific features to ensure the safe and efficient handling of the harvested crop
A Day Bin is a type of storage bin used in agriculture, particularly in grain and paddy processing systems. It serves as a temporary holding area for grains that are ready to be processed, typically holding enough material to supply the processing equipment for a day’s operation.
Silos have been very frequently used in the grain industry to preserve the produce especially food grains.
APIT grain silos are mainly used to store the cereals i.e. paddy, rice, wheat, maize etc. with a steel bin having cylindrical build with galvanized bottom and a sealed roof.
Key features of APIT Silos include,
