In most cases,High quality seeds decides the quality of oil that produced in the solvent extracton plant. Seed processing equipment seems significantly important.
Usually the seed from harvesting machines or hand collections always mixed together with stems, leaves, chaff, appendages, empty glumes and the like. Apart from that, raw seeds are always of various sizes and their quality is quite different, too. As a result, extraneous materials must be removed before putting them into oil milling equioment, then oil quality can be guaranteed.

Seed Processing Equipment - Precleaning Equipment

So far seed Processing Equipment manufacturers have developed numerous seed cleaning devices for small lots as well as very large lots.  With experience and some ingenuity, operators can adjust the cleaning machinery to produce premium seed processing machinery with high purity levels.  Pre-cleaning is the rapid removal of excessive, extraneous materials by scalpers, hammermills, or debearders prior to basic cleaning with air-screen separators.  The air-screen separator, It is properly adjusted, can supply a finished product for many grasses, forbs, and shrubs.  However, finishing machines are also available to separate seed by density, length, width, thickness, and shape.  These include specific gravity separators, pneumatic separators, velvet rolls, spiral and indent cylinders, indent disks, magnetic separators, electrostatic separators, vibrator separators, stoners, fresh fruit separators, and others.  Moisture content may be high in freshly harvested seed and drying may be required prior to cleaning.  Processed seed should remain viable for several years if stored in a clean facility where temperature and humidity are kept low.
