MTSD Wheat Grain Destoner
The MTSD destoner separates stones, pebbles, glass and other high density matter from the grain stream in a flour mill.
What This Machine Does
The MTSD destoner separates stones, pebbles, glass and other high density matter from the grain stream in a flour mill. Throughput varies with the product and the degree of contamination, which is why the capacity is published per crop rather than as a single number.
Key Benefits
- High separating efficiency on stones, pebbles and glass
- Capacity published per crop so the machine can be sized honestly
- High versatility across wheat, durum, corn, rye, rice and soybeans
- Protects the roller mills from damage that stops production
- Efficient cleaning ahead of the scouring stage
Problems It Solves
- Stones and glass reaching the rolls and stopping the mill
- Foreign matter complaints from bakeries and buyers
- Cleaning capacity that collapses when the wheat is dirtier than usual
- One machine specified for several crops without a per crop capacity figure
Who It Is For
- Wheat and durum flour mills
- Maize milling plants
- Grain processors cleaning before storage
- Mills upgrading an undersized cleaning section
Application Scenarios
- First and second cleaning sections of a wheat mill
- Durum milling where stone damage is expensive
- Corn and maize cleaning before milling
- Rye, rice and soybean processing
Technical Features
- Density based separation of high density matter from the grain stream
- Throughput stated per crop and contamination level
- Suitable for wheat, durum, corn, maize, rye, rice and soybeans
- Designed for the first and second cleaning sections of a flour mill
MTSD Wheat Grain Destoner Model Table
Figures below are taken from the TITAN model sheets. Where a figure depends on the crop or the contamination level it is stated that way rather than averaged.
| Crop | Throughput capacity |
|---|---|
| Soft wheat | Up to 22 t/h |
| Durum wheat | Up to 14.5 t/h |
| Corn and maize | Up to 16.5 t/h |
| Rye, rice, soybeans | Also processed, capacity per product |
How This Machine Is Built
Quality Control
- Separating deck adjustment verified before packing
- Air system function checked
- Machine run tested
Customisation Options
- Capacity selection against the crop mix in your mill
- Air settings tuned during commissioning
- Integration with the scourer and sieve in the cleaning section
Use Guide
- Size the machine on the dirtiest wheat you buy, not the cleanest
- Adjust air settings when switching between soft wheat, durum and maize
- Empty the stone outlet on a fixed schedule
- Inspect the deck surface as part of the shutdown routine
How It Compares With The Alternatives
| Sieve cleaning | Separates by density, catching stones that share the grain's size. |
|---|---|
| Rice mill gravity destoner | The MTSD is specified for the wheat and flour milling duty with per crop capacity figures. |
MTSD Wheat Grain Destoner Questions
What throughput can I expect on durum?
Up to 14.5 t/h, against up to 22 t/h on soft wheat and up to 16.5 t/h on corn and maize.
Does the figure change with contamination?
Yes. Throughput varies as a function of the specific product and its degree of contamination.
Can it be used outside a flour mill?
It also processes rye, rice and soybeans, so it is used in grain processing plants beyond wheat milling.
Where does it belong in the cleaning section?
Ahead of the scourer, so the abrasive surface treatment never sees a stone.
What does it remove?
Stones and pebbles, glass and other high density matter.
