Grain cleaner (Aspirator)
- The aspirator is designed to remove light contaminants from various types of grain.
- Grain cleaning after harvest, before storage, after storage, and degermed maize before milling are examples of typical usage.
- Maize, soybeans, wheat, barley, peas, rice, and other common grain types can be aspirated.
- Impurities include dust, chaff, husks, and other lightweight particles.
- No interchangeable screens or sieves
- Inline system
- Highly adaptable for various grain types and impurities
- Optimal grain distribution and separation
- Can be adjusted to client requirements
- Gentle handling of product
