Rice Mill Machine

Basic Knowledge about Rice Milling Machine

With the rapid upgrading of agricultural machinery, machines concerned with
rice is becoming more and more advanced. At the same time, many new kinds
of rice processing equipment have sprung up, such as Rice Milling
Machine, Rice Packing Machine, Paddy De-cleaner, Rice Separator and so
on.
 Rice is our staple food in our daily life.
The history of rice is almost as long as we
human on the earth. So today rice market
has been very booming. How to get rice
from paddy? Of course Rice Mill is
indispensable. However, no matter you
are a customer or a supplier, it’s
necessary for you to know some basic
knowledge of the rice machine like the
parts of a rice milling machine and how to choose and use a rice milling
machinery properly.

The spare parts of a rice milling machine include the rice huller screen, the
huller blade, and the whitening cylinder. Because of the frequent friction that
occurs between these parts and the grain, many spare parts are easily worn
down to some degree. With excessive wear, the yield and quality of white rice
will markedly decrease. At this time, you should change the spare parts.
Please refer to the User Manual for information on disassembling and
installing spare parts.
For building a medium or large-scale rice processing plant, medium or large-
scale rice mills are needed. They can process 10-100 tons of rice per day. If
the processing plant is small, then medium, small-scale rice mills or combined
rice mills will be suitable . They can process around several tons. If it is for a
family or movable street vendor, then the small scale or movable rice milling
machines is the best option.

When the rice milling machine starts working, what should the operators
pay attention to?
1. Install the rice mill in smooth place before starting and check whether all the
related parts are normal, the connection is loose and the transmission belt is
in good condition. Pay attention to the lubrication situation of all the parts.
Only after ensuring the above parts are normal can you make rice milling
machine starts working.
2. Remove debris in the brown rice, such as stone aggregates and iron. There
should not be big rocks and iron , so as not to damage the rice milling
machine. Check whether the rice humidity is meeting the requirements or not.
If all the above preparation work is done well, now you can start the rice mill to
mill rice.
 
After working, there are also some important
things which needs your attention. When you
demount the rice processing equipment, you
should notice the following items to avoid
damage of the machine.
1. Demount the rice milling machine in a
reasonable order. Generally it is from
accessories to main parts and from outside to
inside.
2. Classify the machine parts according to property and precision degree of
the material.
3. Reduce demounting time.
4. Clean up mud or grease before demounting and keep tidy during the
process.
5. Prepare well for installation after demounting, thus increasing installation
efficiency and correctness. Mark the machine parts during demounting.
6. Use proper tools to demount the rice milling plant without fierce knocking to
avoid damage or deformation of the machine parts .  
Milling machine installation, adjustment, operation and maintenance
methods
Milling machine installation, adjustment, operation and maintenance methods
    
1. Milling machine installation
    Milling machine installation may be required. Do not need to move the
machine, it is best installed on the cement base. The size of the base is
determined by the power of the rice milling machine. Power rice machine base
size larger. If the rice milling machine needs to be moved frequently, the rice
milling machine and the power machine can be mounted on the same
movable base.
2. Milling machine power matching
    Milling machine power matching must meet two conditions, one power; third
speed should meet the requirements. Power is mainly based on rice mill
nameplate calibration power to match. Its power is generally 1.2 to 2.3 times
the power of rice milling machine, but also to choose the right pulley, the rice
milling machine has a suitable speed.
3. Milling machine check before use
    Before use to check whether the safety device is safe and reliable, the
connection part of the connection is reliable, the bolt is solid Check the
presence or absence of foreign objects in the rice milling chamber, roller
rotation is flexible. Check whether the installation of the roller meets the
requirements. If it is a rice machine with two rollers, the connection end of the
roller should be smooth and the tendons and tendons must be aligned. If the
alignment of the rollers can not be aligned, the protruding direction of the
tendons should follow the flowing direction of the rice grains. Check the
installation of the meter screen. Two screens of rice machine screen lap
should follow the meter side has always been a smooth, flat without leaving a
gap, the gap between the sieve and roller should be the same. Check the
bearing cavity, butter cup of oil and oil content to meet the requirements, if
necessary, add or replace the lubricating oil. ? Check the steering of rice
milling is correct, confirm the safety and reliability of the normal, you can test
idling, if you find the problem, you must promptly resolve.
4 rice machine adjustment
    Milling the number of rice milling, you need a certain amount of pressure,
the greater the pressure, the higher the white precision, to grind white, often
due to excessive pressure caused by increased broken rice; if the pressure is
small, Bran is not net. The best way is to grind white in two or three times,
grinding white high precision, less broken rice, a high rate of rice. Roller speed
adjustment Roller speed level and the grain in the grinding chamber
movement speed and pressure on the rice mill must affect the productivity and
quality. Grinding the first time should reduce the speed, increase the pressure;
two or three times the pressure should be small, slightly faster speed. When
the moisture content of rice is high or when it is silty rice, the speed should be
slower. Therefore, the drum speed should be based on product specifications,
according to the actual situation to be adjusted. Inlet and outlet gate
adjustment ltyJ board opening adjustable flow, control the pressure of the
white room, a direct impact on the productivity of rice mills, white precision,
export rate and power consumption. Commonly used in the actual production
of imported gate control of the appropriate flow, with the export gate to control
the pressure of the white chamber to meet certain requirements. Adjusting the
length of the rice knife The size of the gap between the rice knife and the
mixing tube affects the accuracy of white milling and the rate of broken rice.
Therefore, the adjustment of the knife should be with the inlet and outlet
opening adjustment with the opening. General first open the gate, adjust the
grind white accuracy with the export gate, if you do not meet the requirements
and then adjust the rice knife, and then review the opening of the gate to see
whether the increase of traffic flow. After adjusting to meet the requirements,
the fixed nut tightened, no longer free to change. If the rice sieve is found to
be mixed with whole rice grains, it should be checked whether the rice sieve
has any leakage phenomenon. If the meter screen improper installation or
damage, should be re-installed or repaired, serious damage should be
replaced when the new pieces. If not for improper installation and damage
caused by the meter screen, you should replace the smaller sieve sieve.
5. Milling machine operation method
    Pre-processing inspection of rice processing requirements of its moisture
level should be appropriate, the valley shall not contain iron, stone and other
hard objects. Processed varieties of rice should be the same or similar.
Feeding and feeding section of the material into the boot, to be normal
operation before feeding. Feeding from less to more, gradually increased to
the rated load. According to the requirements of grinding white precision,
adjust the discharge gate to meet the requirements until the rice, the operation
of the adjustment process should pay close attention to the operation of rice
milling machines and power machines. Found that there are changes in mill
white precision should be promptly adjusted to stabilize the quality of the
product. If the rice machine or power machine abnormal noise or other
abnormalities, should immediately stop checking, troubleshooting can
continue to use. Abnormal shutdown In case of a sudden power outage or
other reasons, the power supply should be cut off when the rice machine is
blocked. Move the belt loosely by hand and turn the rice mill pulley in the
positive and negative direction slowly, Discharge, in order to reduce the load
when starting again. When the paddy is finished or the job needs to be shut
down on the way, the feed gate should be closed first, so that all the grains in
the grind chamber will be discharged before turning off the power. Safe
operation The operator should tighten cuffs, wear masks and work hats, body
parts may not be close to the drive belt or pulley, in order to avoid unsafe
accidents.
6. Milling machine maintenance
    Rice knives, rice easy to damage, should pay attention to wear and tear.
Milling knife blunt, adjustable head upside down use, serious should be
replaced. ? In the work should always check the pulley, the strength of the
fastening bolts, if loose, tighten in time. Regular inspection of bearing
lubrication, regular addition or replacement of lubricating oil. After processing,
should be rice and power machines and other equipment clean up. When not
in use for a long time, all the whitened indoor material should be cleared out,
close the material gate, so as not to mold the remaining grain in the white
room. And Panasonic belt to prevent long-term tension in the belt deformation.

Operate Rice Mill

Basic points regarding the sustainable operation of milling services provided

at milling facilities are divided into two categories according to operational
type; however, these two categories come with some identical important basic
points toward ensuring sustainable operation, as follows.

1) It is necessary that milling facilities are able to continuously operate

machines in an efficient manner with high yield at locations where adequate
amounts of paddy are harvested.
2) It is necessary to operate milling facilities in a way that they can make a
profit with their own funds without depending on any kind of financial support.
3) Milling machines should have the capabilities necessary for the milling
volume expected at the location where the milling facility is located.
4) For the proper operation of milling machines, it is necessary to ensure
experienced ope rators who are well-knowledgeable in milling or handling any
machines.
5) Milling facility managers are required to have enough knowledge and
experience in milling facility operation as well as to be capable of managing
the facility in an appr opriate and active manner, for moving toward their
operational goals.
6) It is desirable to be able to ensure accounting by a person in charge of
accounting, utilizing appropriate bookkeeping and recording methods.
7) In order to achieve high milling yield, the procurement of quality paddy is
indispensable.
8) In addition to milling services, milling facilities are to take on the role of a
base for information dissemination about cultivation/post-harvest techniques,
and activities, etc., as well as for taking action so that users produce rice and
use the milling facilities in a co ntinuous manner.

Basic points regarding the operation of commissioned milling

The operation of commissioned milling is mainly characterized as follows:

1) As volume per milling is small, paddy are intermittently milled per lot, and
work efficiency is low.
2) In order to make a profit, it is necessary to set milling fee (commission
prices) matching the white rice prices in the market.
3) Initial investment is small because in most cases only one milling machine
is utilized throughout the entire milling operation, from paddy to white rice.
4) As this type of milling is done for farmers’ personal rice consumption, they
rarely pay attention to milling yield.
5) In order for milling facilities to make a profit and to be operated in a
sustainable manner, knowledge regarding reducing milling loss and improving
the quality of rice is required.
6) Regardless of public or private milling facilities, currently no government
staffs are knowledgeable in equipment maintenance techniques or in the
ability to offer operational guidance for the facilities.

Pre-cleaning
When paddy comes into the mill it contains foreign material such as straw,
weed seeds, soil and other inert material. If this is not removed prior to hulling
the efficiency of the huller and the milling recovery are reduced. Most pre-
cleaners separate three groups of materials:
• The first separation is done by scalping or removing the objects that are
larger than the grain. Either a flat oscillating screen or a rotary drum screen
that allows the grain to pass through but retains straw can do this.
• The second separation retains the grains but allows broken grains, small
stones and weed seeds to pass through. An air aspirator may also be
incorporated to remove the dust and the light empty grains
The capacity of the paddy pre-cleaner is usually based on the capacity of the
rice mill. A pre-cleaner for a 3-ton/hr rice mill would normally have a 5 ton/hr
cleaning capacity.
Types of pre cleaners
Grain pre-cleaners can be classified according to their cleaning mechanism.
These are:
1. Oscillating Sieve type Oscillating sieve pre-cleaners are simple and often
made locally. The machine consists of two sieves of different sizes depending
on the size and shape of the grain. The top sieve has a slotted profile larger
than the bottom and both screens can be changed to suit the grain size or
crop type.
2. Aspiration cum Oscillation Type The aspirator grain cleaner removes lighter
impurities such as dust, dirt, chaff and straw by blowing or sucking air through
the mass of falling grain and removing these light impurities in the air stream.
Impurities that are not removed by the air are then separated from the grain
using oscillating sieves. The sieving action of this machine is similar to the
sieve oscillation cleaner. Some cleaners are also equipped with magnets to
remove ironic particles. Aspiration style cleaners can have either single or
double action aspiration
Rotary Cleaner
This machine consists of one or two drums; each drum is fitted with mesh of
different sized hexagonal or square perforation and an oscillating sieve.
Foreign matter larger than the grain is removed as the paddy or rice passes
through the drums. Paddy then flows onto the oscillating sieve to separate
heavier impurities such as stone.

Single drum with aspirator and oscillation sieve. The single drum aspirator
utilizes a single drum to separate large, light and heavy impurities. Lighter
impurities are separated by suction aspiration and the oscillation sieves
separate heavier impurities such as sand.
 Double drums with aspirator. This machine has two rotation drums with
each drum having a different size hole on the wire mesh. It utilizes an
aspirator to separate light impurities. This machine is typically used for
cleaning freshly harvest paddy

Operation

1. Fixing the machine frame on the plain ground and install on the frame
the rice mill machine, grinding machine and power supply (electric motor or
diesel engine). Next is the installation of belt pulley system. Before putting on
the safety cover, please make sure that all the belt pulleys are in a same level
and the belt position is just proper (not too tight, not too loose, normally when
pressing the belt, the movement distance could be 2~2.5mm). When turning
the belt pulleys, all of them should be flexible and without abnormal noise.
2. Open the rice mill  cover to check if the milling roller and milling knives
are all in well position.Normally on entrance side the gap between milling roller
and knife is 3mm while on the exit side the gap is 2.5mm.
3. Before exact processing works, please put the machine in empty
running for 3~5 minutes to make sure the electric motor or diesel engine are
working in good condition and in correct direction.
4. After starting, please slowly take off the block board on milling entrance
to allow the processingquantity increased step by step and to test the milled
rice quality by adjusting the entrance pressure.
5. In case you need a terminal of the machine during the processing,
please close the milling entrance first and wait till the milling finished before
actual stop of the machine.Operate rice milling processing machine in a
correct way and make it work you for a long life, bringing you more benefits.

Safety rules at milling facilities

The rules that workers should observe when operating milling facility
machinery and equipment are shown below in reference to JIS (Japanese
Industrial Standards) General requirement for safety (JIS: B9220).
(1) Check whether safety is secured: Alert others when starting machines.
(2) Check first whether the necessary maintenance has been done. (See “7.1
Maintenance”)
(3) Check the vicinity of machinery before operation: Never leave tools in the
machine. Ensure that all nuts and bolts are fastened and adjust the tension of
belts.
(4) Wear safe work clothes: Wear tight clothes that cannot be caught in
machines.
(5) Wear a mask when working in dusty areas: This is to prevent lung damage
. (6) Wear earplugs when working in noisy areas: This is to prevent ear
damage.
(7) Never operate a milling machine while listening to music through an
iPhone or other devices. This is because when using such devices, it is
difficult to notice abnormal noise, which could indicate that a serious accident
is about to occur.
(8) Install protection devices for any dangerous movable parts of machines as
much as possible: Use protection devices made of nets or grids that do not
hinder the easy operation and maintenance of machines and that help secure
a safe distance so that movable parts do not directly touch a worker’s body or
clothes.

MILLING MACHINE TROUBLE SHOOT  appears processing quality or

reduce production efficiency and other issues, we should first check whether
the original grain moisture content is too high or too low, and then adjust the
machine according to the different phenomenon.
 1. Rice bran is not clear. Adjust the fan speed to reach the rated speed,
adjust the air volume adjustment board, increase the air volume; tighten the
fan pulley, eliminate the belt slip; replace the fan impeller to ensure air
volume; check the vibration lever and tension spring is off, vibration roller and
the wheel is separated , and adjust the distance; check whether the vibrating
screen is off.

 2. Fine bran in the run grain or rice in the grain increased. If the fine bran
running grain or coarse bran, should remove the cover and chassis contact
surface debris, locking the cover; repair or replace the rice sieve; re-install,
adjust the wind shield, increase the air volume, reduce wind speed. If the grain
is increased in the rice, should adjust the import box board, rice knife or ram;
replace the cover.

 3. Yield decline. Adjust the pressure of the whitening chamber to ensure the
spindle reaches the rated speed; replace the wear and tear of the roller, re-
adjust the import and export box board opening.

 4. The rice machine is jammed. Adjust the import and export box board
opening; parking check whether the sieve is blocked, such as plugging should
be cleaned to make it smooth, and clean up the export blockage of the bran.
Check the cause of the belt slip and eliminate it in time. When the grain has
too much debris, should be cleaned up.

The above is the mini rice milling machine troubleshooting methods, after the
operation process, according to different phenomena to adjust to reduce the
damage of mini rice milling machine to improve its working efficiency.
Milling machine maintenance
    Rice knives, rice easy to damage, should pay attention to wear and tear.
Milling knife blunt, adjustable head upside down use, serious should be
replaced. ? In the work should always check the pulley, the strength of the
fastening bolts, if loose, tighten in time. Regular inspection of bearing
lubrication, regular addition or replacement of lubricating oil. After processing,
should be rice and power machines and other equipment clean up. When not
in use for a long time, all the whitened indoor material should be cleared out,
close the material gate, so as not to mold the remaining grain in the white

Modern rice milling

The milling process in large commercial mills combines a number of operations that produce
better quality and higher yield of white rice from paddy or rough rice.
The modern milling process
1. Pre-cleaning

When paddy comes into the mill, it contains foreign materials such as straw,
weed seeds, soil, and other inert materials. If these are not removed before
hulling, the efficiency of the huller and milling recovery will be reduced. The
capacity of the paddy pre-cleaner is normally 1.5 times the milling capacity.

2. Removing the husk (dehusking or dehulling)

Brown rice is produced by removing the husk from rough paddy rice. The husk
is removed by friction as the paddy grains pass between two abrasive
surfaces that move at different speeds. After dehusking, the husk is removed
by suction and transported to a storage dump outside the mill. Husk accounts
for 20% of the paddy weight and an efficient husker should remove 90% of the
husk in a single pass.

3. Paddy separation

The paddy separator separates unhusked paddy rice from brown rice. The
amount of paddy present depends on the efficiency of the husker and should
not be more than 10%. Paddy separators work by making use of the
differences in specific gravity, buoyancy, and size between paddy and brown
rice.

4. Whitening or polishing

White rice is produced by removing the bran layer and the germ from the
paddy. The bran layer is removed from the kernel through either abrasive or
friction polishers. The amount of bran removed is normally between 8 and
10% of the total paddy weight. To reduce the number of broken grains during
the whitening process, rice is normally passed through two to four whitening
machines connected in series.

5. Separation of white rice

After polishing, white rice is separated into head rice, large and small broken
rice, and “brewers” by an oscillating screen sifter. Head rice is normally
classified as kernels that are 75−80% or more of a whole kernel. To attain a
higher degree of precision for grading and separation a length or indent grader
is used.
 6. Rice mixing

A good rice mill will produce 50−60% head rice (whole kernels), 5−10% large
broken and 10−15% small broken kernels. Depending on country standards,
rice grades in the market will contain from 5−25% broken kernels. If rice
mixing is to be done properly, then a volumetric mixer is necessary.

7. Mist polishing

Mixing a fine mist of water with the dust retained on the whitened rice
improves the luster of rice (polishes) without significantly reducing milling
yield. A friction type of whitening machine, which delivers a fine mist of water
during the final whitening process, is used for “final” polishing before sale.

8. Rice weighing

Rice is normally sold in 50 kg sacks which must be accurately weighed and

labeled. While most rice mills use a manual mechanical weighing system, very
accurate, and fast electronic systems are also available.
