The paddy cleaner and destoner is designed to efficiently remove dust, straw pieces, stones, and other impurities from paddy rice. It can process 1.3-2.5 tons of rice with impurities per hour.In rice processing, removing impurities before milling is an essential step to improve rice quality and protect downstream equipment.
With a combination of cleaning and stone removal functions, this machine helps rice mills reduce contamination risks, improve milling performance, and produce cleaner final rice products.
What is the paddy cleaner and destoner?
The ZQS series combined cleaning and destoning machine is designed according to the difference of gravity and size. It not only removes light impurities such as straw, leaves and dust, but also remove heavy impurities like sand, stones, soil.
By changing the sieves, it can be used for cleaning paddy rice, wheat, corn,soybeans and millet,etc.
Why is paddy cleaner and destoner important before rice milling?
Freshly harvested paddy usually contains various impurities, such as:
- Stones and soil particles
- Straw and plant residues
- Dust and small foreign materials
- Lightweight impurities
If these impurities are not removed before milling, they may:
- Reduce rice quality
- Increase equipment wear
- Affect the efficiency of rice milling machines
- Increase maintenance costs
Using a combined grain cleaner and destoner as the first processing step helps ensure a cleaner and more stable rice milling process.、
Specifications of the paddy cleaner destoner
| Model | Capacity (t/h) | Power (kw) | Overall Size (mm) |
| ZQS70 | 1.3-1.6 | 0.25x2 | 1500x1000x2100 |
| ZQ590 | 1.5-2.5 | 0.25x2 | 1600x1280x2250 |
Applicable raw materials of paddy cleaner and destoner
The combined cleaner and destoner is mainly designed for cleaning and removing impurities from different grain materials before further processing. Besides paddy rice, it can also be used for other grains with similar cleaning requirements.
Suitable raw materials include:
- Paddy rice – remove stones, dust, straw, and other impurities before husking and milling.
- Wheat – help remove soil particles, foreign materials, and lightweight impurities before flour processing.
- Corn – separate dirt, small debris, and unwanted materials to improve grain cleanliness.
- Sorghum – clean grains before further processing or storage.
- Other cereal grains – suitable for various grain cleaning applications according to processing requirements.
By improving the cleanliness of raw materials, the paddy cleaner combined destoner helps ensure better performance of downstream equipment and improves the quality of final products.
