Sesame Seeds Cleaning and Peeling Plant

Sesame seeds are one of the best and oldest known oilseeds in the world. These seeds are not only the healthiest seed varieties but also ones which are known for their nutty flavour and texture all around the world. The seeds have to go through a detailed processing procedure before the final outcome can be obtained and are then used for cooking and other purposes. The procedures involve cleaning and peeling which is done through appropriate machinery. The following are some more details of the cleaning & peeling processes of the sesame seeds plant ingeniously used in sesame seeds manufacturing.

The sesame seeds cleaning and peeling plant plays an important role in sesame seed processing procedure. The sesame seeds plant can peel both white or black sesame seeds very efficiently and even in bulk quantities. This also helps to improve the sesame economic benefits and the overall utilization value. The peeling machine has a vertical structure and is easy to operate. Well known Sesame seed manufacturing companies like HL Agro use large sized cleaning and peeling machines so as to be able to produce large content of seeds every year. The whole sesame seeds plant require alkaline water in order to soak the raw materials and to separate sesame skin as well as the kernels by washing. Thus this process is termed as wet method cleaning and peeling.

The following is a step by step description of the manufacturing and production process followed by HL Agro and other sesame seed manufacturing companies.

1. Cleaning- The first step of the process is cleaning where the big and small impurities are removed.
2. Removing- The next step involves removing the sesame that is not full and this is done through rotary sieve.
3. Colour Sorter- The next stage of the processing process involves colour sorting in which the kernels with different colours are sorted using a computer colour sorter.
4. Sesame Grading- A classifying equipment is used to select similar sesame in this step.
5. Soaking- The sesame is conveyed to blender by a transmitting tube and then soaked for 30 minutes in water.
6. Peeling- A vertical machine or cylinder peeler is used to make the sesame go through relative movement in the container. This is done to remove sesame skin by using friction.
7. Separation- This is the process of separation of the skin and the kernel so that sesame can be softened by adopting the best soaking technology.

8. Drying- The seeds are now finally dried by using a sesame and water gravity ratio of 1:2.
These processes are followed throughout the year in sesame manufacturing plants and in such a way that the yield can be maximized to the best extent.
Sesame Seeds Exporters, HL Agro maintains a fully automated processing plant for cleaning & peeling the sesame seeds to make them export -ready for global locations.

Native & Modified Starches for food formulations

Starches from different sources, even those extracted from less common corn varieties, offer a range of functionality and present several potential advantages. Starch and derivatives have emerged as the most promising environment friendly ingredients over the years, offering varied application benefits in both food & non-food industries. These cost-efficient functional ingredients tend to influence appearance, texture, taste and shelf life of the products. We all want foods and beverages with great mouthfeel and taste, but don't want to fill up with fat, calories and sugar. Product developers recognize that low-fat, high-fiber and low carbs are critical factors today for baked goods and snack formulations. Starches help manufacturers to address these challenges. Starch can be extracted from more than 50 types of plants and supports sauces, puddings, pie fillings and soups. But no two starches are created equal, and that’s good for bakery and snack product developers seeking to ...

In India, the practice of  CSR  is gradually moving from institutional building to community development through various projects. Forasmuch as global influences and communities are becoming more active, CSR is turn...

A brief description of the Corn Starch Production Process

Corn Starch Production Process The process of separating the starch from corn is one which involves several steps and procedures.  The corn starch thus obtained is from the endosperm of the kernel and is used in the production of several foods and other items.  The main aim of the corn starch production process is to release the starch from the cell structure and that too by ensuring that the germ is not damaged. When the process is over, 4 main derivatives are obtained and they are starch, fiber, germ, and gluten.  The following is a brief of the corn starch production process: 1.  Corn cleaning and steeping This is the first stage of the process and is done to free the corn of all kinds of impurities.  After cleaning, the corn is soaked in water so that it doubles in size.  Now the gluten bond weakens and the starch is thus released. 2.  Milling, germ separation and drying The second stage of the  corn starch production ...
