Application in Rice Grading and Sorting
This HS rice thickness grader is used to classify rice or grain by thickness and remove unsuitable kernels according to size difference. It helps improve uniformity before final sorting or packing.
Core FunctionRice thickness grading for separating grains by thickness and removing unsuitable kernels.
Buyer ValueHelps improve rice uniformity before fine grading, color sorting and packing.
Line IntegrationWorks near the finishing section after whitening or polishing and before packing, separating rice by size, length, color or defects according to final quality requirements.
Process Result & Line Integration
How HS Rice Thickness Grader Fits in the Rice Milling Line
See how finished rice is classified by size, length, thickness or color before packing.
Processing Action
Length, thickness or rotary grading
Output / Next Step
Separated rice grades for color sorting or packing
Key Features
Improves Finished Rice Classification and Appearance
Separates finished rice by size, shape or color so the final product can meet different market grades.
Grade Separation
Separates whole rice, head rice and broken rice according to the selected screen or grading principle.
Quality Control
Reduces off-size, off-color or defective grains before final packing.
Market Flexibility
Helps produce different finished rice grades for wholesale, retail or branded rice sales.
Working Principle
How It Works in the Process
When the material pass through the sieves barrel, smaller grains will be discharged through the bar mesh of the sieves, so as to separate the immature grains efficiently. No.
Input
White rice enters the grading, sizing or sorting section.
Classification
The machine classifies rice by size, length, thickness or optical quality.
Separated Grades
Head rice, broken rice, unsuitable kernels or defective grains are separated.
Output
Qualified rice moves to packing, storage or further quality control.
Technical Specifications
Technical Specifications
HS Rice Thickness Grader specifications are selected by sorting capacity, number of outlets/channels, rice variety and required finished rice grade.
| Item | Specification | Selection Note |
|---|---|---|
| Core function | Classifies or sorts finished rice by size, length, thickness or color | Select according to target rice grade |
| Capacity | Model-specific commercial sorting capacity | Match upstream polishing/whitening output |
| Quality-control role | Improves head rice separation, broken rice control or appearance grade | Use when market requires more consistent finished rice |
| Line integration | Installed before weighing and packing | Confirm outlet layout and finished-rice bins |
Grading & Sorting Selection
How to Choose Rice Grading or Color Sorting Equipment
Select by the defect you need to remove: broken rice, size variation, length difference, thickness difference or color defects.
Broken Rice & SizeUse white rice graders or rotary graders when the goal is to separate whole rice and broken rice by size.
Length or ThicknessUse length graders or thickness graders when rice shape consistency is important for the target market.
Color DefectsUse a color sorter when yellow, chalky, black, spotted or foreign-color grains must be removed.
