Gravity Destoner: A Comprehensive Guide
A wheat/maize gravity destoner , also known as a gravity separator or a specific type of destoner, is a machine used to remove heavy impurities, such as stones, from grains and seeds. It operates on the principle of density difference, utilizing gravity and airflow to separate materials based on their specific weight. Here's all you need to know about gravity destoners: Operating Principle: The gravity destoner relies on the difference in specific weight between the grains or seeds and the heavier impurities. The material to be processed is fed onto a vibrating deck or table, where an upward airflow is applied. As the deck vibrates, the lighter grains or seeds rise to the top due to the airflow, while the heavier impurities, such as stones, settle to the bottom. The separated stones are discharged from the machine, while the clean product moves along the deck for further processing. Adjustable Parameters: Gravity destoners offer adjustable parameters to optimize the sep
