COMPETENCE IN THE FIELD OF EDIBLE OIL
OILSEED PROCESSING PLANT FOR SUNFLOWER, SOYA AND RAPE
Recently, a combined sunflower, soybean and rapeseed oil mill
has been put into operation. The Schule scope of supply com-
prises the entire conditioning unit including the oil-press as
well as the fully automatic control system of the plant.
The respective products are processed in the plant with the
following process steps and throughputs: Sunflowers are proc-
essed at a capacity of about 15 t/h. The process steps include
cleaning, grading, husking, separation of husks, sorting with
variably adjustable residual husk content in the husked grain
fraction, and flaking upstream of the oil press. Soybeans are
processed at a capacity of about 10 t/h. The process steps in-
clude cleaning, grading, granulation, separation of husks on de-
mand, and flaking before oil extraction. Rape is processed with
START-UP OF A RICE MILL IN PERU
In September, a rice mill (shelling, whitening, polishing, and col-
our sorting) with a capacity of 15 t/h, equipped with machines
of the company Schule was started up in Peru. A new whiten-
ing technology is used in this mill. This innovative process is
realised by means of the Verticone (VPC). Due to the flexibility
and ease of operation of this machine, rapid optimisation of
the process is possible, both for changing the types of rice to
be processed and for varying quality requirements on the final
product. Another advantage of the machine is its low energy
consumption. Currently, the Verticone VPC 480 is the shelling
machine with the highest capacity on the market.
The polishing machine RPm 2A with the round screen basket,
newly developed by the company Schule, is also used in the
mill. With the use of this screen basket a uniform and improved
polishing effect is achieved. The new shelling machine SHA has
proven its high capacity when shelling tropical paddy. Although
tropical paddy is difficult to shell, a capacity of 5 t/h with a
a capacity of 12 t/h. The process steps include cleaning, grad-
ing, and flaking upstream of the oil press. using the innovative
Schule process and high-quality machines all the customers' re-
quirements could be exceeded.
The process ensures a controlled crude fibre content (protein
content) of the extraction meal varying as required, as well as a
minimal residual grain content in the shells/husks.
shelling degree of more than 95 % was achieved. Because of
the nature of the raw material processed in Peru, characterised
by a high degree of impurities (chalky), and the high demands
of the local market, the colour sorting machine DCD 320 was
integrated into the plant.
