the rotor of enegelberg whitener was equipped with a screw conveyor to reduce broken rice percentage. according to preliminary experiments this modification could reduce broken rice percentage about 2.5%. further experiment was performed to determine the effect of rotor speeds and blade positions on white rice quality. to do this, five rotor speeds, consisting 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 r.p.m a...

in this study, the effect of the speed of the mill-rotor during the whitening process was evaluated for the milling properties of two varieties of rice in fars province. a split plot design with five replications and the duncan test were used for statistical analysis. two varieties of paddy rice, amol-3 and kamfiruzi, and five mill-rotor speeds, 550, 600, 650, 700 and 750 rpm, were selected as ...

During the rice milling process, a huller system is used to remove rough rice hull, then abrasive or frictional mill product whitened rice. In such machines adjustment and control, operation is important, because breakage percentage of rice is one main factor in determination of quality. Today’s image processing techniques has become an increasingly popular and cost-effect...

a cause for breakage of rice kernels during the whitening process could be assumed to be due to the produced heat. it is partly because of abrasion and friction of grains produced by contact against themselves and/or against cone and concave. in this study the effect of different temperatures of brown rice on rice kernels' breakage during the whitening process was investigated. khazar cult...

in order to identifying factors affecting milled rice breakage losses in guilan province, a research was conducted based on the descriptive survey with association of 75 rice mill owner in guilan province. factors affecting milled rice breakage losses were recognized with the delphi technique. in this regard, a descriptive questionnaire with an open-ended question was distributed among 5 rice m...
