Grain contains impurities and foreign materials. These are removed in the cleaning section of a mill, using mechanical and optical sorting machines. This process removes infected material, fungal contaminations and other impurities.
Degermination separates bran, germ and endosperm for flaking and milling. Our grain cleaners gently process the corn, neatly separating the germ, epidermis and endosperm with minimal fines.
The product is fed into a steamer, where it is hydrothermically treated to produce steamed grits. These are then processed in a flaking mill to produce even flakes.
The flakes are dried to the moisture content required. They are then ground by roller mills. Afterwards, sifting separates the coarse and floury particles of corn.
The finished products are either bagged or loaded in bulk. Here it is important to keep dust to a minimum. Precise dosing and weighing are also key. We offer a wide range of manual and fully automated loading and bagging systems.
