benifits of pre-cleaning
Pre-cleaning improves seed processing by removing large impurities such as straw, stones, dust, and plant debris before further cleaning. This protects processing equipment, improves efficiency, reduces wear and tear, and helps maintain better seed quality.
flow of a pre-cleaning
The seed lot is fed into the pre-cleaner, where aspiration removes light impurities such as dust, chaff, and empty seeds. The material then passes over a series of screens that separate oversized and undersized contaminants from the desired seed fraction. The cleaned product is discharged for further processing, while the removed impurities are collected separately.
