Cereals occupy a significant part of the human diet. Therefore, regardless of the average standard of living of the population, their production will generate income. Therefore, this is a great idea for developing a successful and profitable business. But in order to get real income, you need to choose high-quality equipment for the production of cereals.
Production technology
The technology of manufacturing cereals is the preparation of raw materials and its processing. The preparation process includes purification from mineral and organic impurities, as well as seeds that have certain defects.
The production of some cereals, such as rice or buckwheat, involves hydrothermal treatment. Thanks to this, the film with which the cores are coated acquires elasticity. As a result of this, products are better cleaned, their cores become strong, and the number of whole grains increases.
The second stage of production includes such processes:
- Peeling. Raw materials for the production of cereals are cleaned from the shell and flower film.
- Grinding. The process consists in cleansing the fruit membranes, as well as the embryo. Grinding is carried out using a processing apparatus in which the grains rub against each other.
- Sorting. Separation of whole grains from broken ones.
Necessary equipment
In the modern market you can find more than a dozen manufacturers. Therefore, in order for the products to be competitive, you should choose high-quality equipment for the production of cereals.
Basic equipment:
- Machine for cleaning, as well as heat treatment of raw materials.
- Equipment used for peeling and sorting various types of cereals.
- Dryers for finished products.
- Equipment for packing and packing grain.
- Control panel of a technological line of production.
Additional equipment includes cyclones, bins, fans, various electrical equipment, racks, containers for storing raw materials and storage equipment.
When choosing equipment, it should be based on the required productivity, the area of the workshop, the initial capital and the specifics of working with various raw materials. Imported equipment is considered to be better and more durable, but some types of machines, for example, a finished product dryer or a grain cleaning apparatus, can also be purchased domestically.
Filling Equipment
It is difficult to imagine the production of cereals without the use of filling and packaging equipment. When choosing machines for packaging products, it is best to stop at an automated production line.
Among the characteristics of such equipment, one should highlight its advantages:
- Precision packaging products.
- High speed.
- Possibility of packing cereals in a given type of packaging.
Finished products are automatically transported to the place of secondary packaging.
Packaging machines for the production of cereals should have high performance, efficiency and durability. In addition, it is important that they have automatic settings for speed and package size.
Filling machines are the most important equipment for this type of production, because at a time when store shelves are littered with cereals from different manufacturers, you can attract attention only with the help of bright and high-quality packaging.
Cereal production lines
Despite the fact that the price of equipment for the production of cereals is quite high, with well-coordinated work, it is possible to return the cost of purchasing machines in a year.To automate production and save on staff, you can purchase an automated line. The cost of such equipment starts from 300 thousand rubles. However, with an increase in productivity, its price also increases.
Such equipment allows to produce various types of crushed and whole cereals. The line allows you to perform peeling of raw materials, grinding certain types of cereals, sifting and sorting. Filling and packaging machines are already included in some production lines. The movement of raw materials between the individual elements of the line is carried out by a set of mechanization.
The productivity of such a line is on average 250 kg / h. However, depending on the targeted sales volumes, you can purchase a more powerful production line.
