Rice hulling
Hulling is the process of removing husk from paddy. This is achieved by the gentle action of rubber rolls applied to the paddy, after which the husk aspirator separates the husk from the rice by means of air aspiration. The brown rice then passes into the paddy separator which separates any unhulled kernels from the brown rice and recycles them into the huller.

Hulling with Buhler
The hulling process in a Buhler mill is carried out by the TopHusk which hulls paddy with great care and efficiency. A bundle of innovations have made the TopHusk the world’s leading rubber roll huller :
| - | A chute feeder ensures precise feeding of paddy kernels thereby minimising breakage. |
| - | The unique automatic feed point controller compensates for roll wear. |
| - | Accurate husk separation eliminates mixed fraction. |
The paddy husk is collected from a separate outlet while the hulled kernels pass into the Royselect Table Separator, which separates unhulled kernels and routes them back to the TopHusk. The Royselect incorporates specially designed impact walls which, combined with the inclined table, accelerate the product in the opposite direction. The lighter fractions (hulled rice) moves upwards while the heavier fraction (unhulled paddy) moves downwards to the separating chamber.
The Rotosort sizes rice by thickness. The rice grains are gravity-fed into the screen drums at a continuous rate. The smaller fractions (immature grain) pass through the screen while the overtails are delivered to the outlet.
