Starch Machinery

Stone Grinder

In the process where all the starch is to be recovered, the underflow from the germs cyclones, containing fibre and pieces of endosperm is more thoroughly milled to recover the maximum yield of starch.
It contains a stationary and a rotating stone with retraction mechanism with rotational shaft to prevent accidental damage to grinding plates. Stone is specially made of food grade.

Germ Cyclone

The first important separation stage is separation of oil-bearing germs from partially grinded Corn. Most plants today use two stages Germ Separation System for this operation. The compact, sanitary Germ Separation System consists of manifold hydrocyclones that make an instant separation using centrifugal force.

The first stage makes a selective separation for optimum purity and the second stage increases germ recovery by capturing any germ that might have bypassed in the first stage. Its distinct benefits are good abrasion resistance, cleanliness, easy maintenance and quick individual replacement due to quick pening couplings.

Fibre Washing System
(Multi Compartment Tanks For Separation Of Fibre)

The function of the fibre washing system is to remove the starch bonded with the fibre. Both fine and coarse fibre is removed in a multi-stage countercurrent washing 120ºC bend pressure screen. It consists of seven or more stages, depending on the screen width and the plant capacity. The multistage countercurrent washing arrangement enables maximum starch yield and high fibre recovery.
