PADDY CLEANER

Paddy Cleaner – Efficient Cleaning & Destoning Solution

A Paddy Cleaner is an essential machine in modern rice mills, designed to ensure clean, impurity-free paddy before it enters the milling process. When raw paddy is brought from the farms, it often contains a variety of impurities such as dust, straw, stones, sand, mud balls, and other unwanted particles. If these impurities are not removed in the initial stage, they can affect grain quality, damage milling equipment, and reduce the final yield. This is why a Paddy Cleaner is considered the first and most crucial step in rice processing.

By combining pre-cleaning and destoning functions, the Paddy Cleaner not only improves the overall quality of paddy but also saves time, space, and operating costs for millers. It ensures that the raw material is thoroughly cleaned and prepared for storage or further processing.

Dual Function System – Cleaning & Destoning in One Machine

One of the biggest advantages of a modern Paddy Cleaner is its dual-function system. Instead of using two separate machines for cleaning and destoning, this integrated system performs both tasks efficiently in a single unit.

• Pre-Cleaning: Removes large impurities such as straw, husk, dust, sand, and mud balls.

• Destoning: Separates heavier impurities like stones and metallic particles that may be mixed with paddy during harvesting and transportation.

This combined system ensures excellent performance, reduces machine footprint, and lowers operational costs without compromising output quality.

How the Paddy Cleaner Works

The Paddy Cleaner operates on the principles of air separation, gravity separation, and sieving technology. The raw paddy is fed into the machine, where it undergoes a two-stage cleaning process:

1. Stage One – Pre-Cleaning:
   Using sieves and airflow, large and light impurities such as dust, straw, and husk are removed. This ensures that the bulk paddy is free from visible impurities.

2. Stage Two – Destoning:
   The cleaned paddy is then passed over a vibrating deck with controlled airflow. Due to the difference in density, heavier materials like stones and metallic particles settle and are separated from the lighter paddy grains.

This two-stage process guarantees maximum impurity removal and prepares paddy for smooth milling operations.
