Corn Peeling Machine

Product Overview of Corn Peeling Machine for Maize Skin Removal

The corn peeling machine from Henan Voson Grain Engineering Machinery Co., Ltd. is a high-efficiency grain shelling equipment designed to remove the outer skin (bran layer) from maize kernels. Utilizing abrasive sand rollers, this machine integrates both peeling and light crushing functions. It can work independently or as part of a complete maize processing line, widely applied in maize flour, grits, and animal feed production.

With a robust design and reliable performance, this corn peeling machine offers superior peeling rates and minimal kernel damage, making it a trusted choice for industrial maize processors worldwide.

Working Principle and Structure Breakdown of Sand Roller Corn Peeling Machine

The corn peeling machine operates by combining grinding and friction principles:

• Maize kernels enter the peeling chamber where rotating abrasive sand rollers contact the grain surfaces.
• The sand roller surfaces, along with built-in abrasive blades, create friction that abrades and removes the outer bran layer.
• Interaction between kernels aids the peeling process.
• Peeled kernels, lightly crushed, exit through the discharge outlet for further milling or grits separation.
• Bran husks are expelled separately.

Application of Corn Peeling Machine in Maize Processing Line

The corn peeling machine is typically positioned after the cleaning stage and before milling or grits separation in maize processing plants. It plays a crucial role in:

• Improving flour quality by removing fibrous bran layers
• Protecting downstream milling equipment from abrasion
• Increasing yield and product market value

Widely used in:

• Maize flour milling plants
• Corn grits production lines
• Animal feed processing
• Turnkey maize milling projects

Frequently Asked Questions about Corn Peeling Machine

Q1: What moisture content is optimal for this corn peeling machine?
A: Ideal moisture is between 13% and 15%. Excess moisture reduces peeling efficiency and increases wear.

Q2: How often do sand rollers need replacement?
A: Typically every 6 to 12 months depending on usage intensity; rollers are easy to replace.

Q3: Is a dust removal system necessary?
A: While optional, it is recommended for cleaner operation and longer equipment life.

Q4: Can this machine peel grains other than maize?
A: Primarily designed for maize, but can be adapted for sorghum or millet with adjustments.
