Rice Grader

WhatsApp Order

A Rice Grader is a specialized agricultural and industrial machine used to classify rice grains based on size, shape, or weight during the post-harvest processing stage. It is essential in rice mills and grain processing plants to ensure consistent product quality by separating broken, small, and full grains. The grading process increases the value of the rice, improves packaging consistency, and ensures compliance with commercial standards.

Description

Uses

  1. Size Grading
    o Sorts rice grains into uniform sizes for improved appearance and packaging.
    o Removes broken or undersized grains that reduce market value.

  2. Shape Sorting
    o Separates grains by shape for specialty rice varieties requiring uniform grain structure.

  3. Post-Milling Quality Control
    o Applied after dehusking and polishing to remove irregular grains.

  4. Foreign Material Removal
    o Eliminates fine debris, husks, or small stones through mesh or vibration-based separation.

  5. Commercial Processing
    o Used in large-scale rice milling operations for high-throughput sorting and grading.

  6. Product Value Enhancement
    o Improves the grade of rice to meet export or local premium market standards.

  7. Packaging Preparation
    o Prepares sorted grains for efficient and accurate packaging based on grade.
SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

Safety Precautions

  1. Wear Protective Gear
    o Use dust masks to protect against airborne rice particles.
    o Wear safety goggles when near moving or vibrating parts.
    o Use gloves during cleaning and maintenance tasks.

  2. Inspect Machine Before Use
    o Check for worn or loose screens and ensure components are properly aligned.
    o Confirm safety guards and covers are intact.

  3. Operate Safely
    o Do not exceed input capacity to avoid jamming or motor strain.
    o Keep hands and tools clear of vibrating or rotating components.

  4. Maintain a Safe Work Area
    o Keep floors dry and free of spilled grain to prevent slips.
    o Ensure good ventilation to reduce dust accumulation.

  5. Electrical Safety
    o Check electrical connections and use grounded outlets.
    o Do not operate in damp conditions.

  6. Routine Maintenance
    o Clean screens, hoppers, and moving parts after each use.
    o Lubricate and inspect mechanical systems regularly.

  7. Training and Supervision
    o Only trained personnel should operate the grader.
    o Operators should be familiar with emergency stop controls and shutdown procedures.
