Advanced grain cleaning system

Optimize your grain processing with a cutting-edge cleaning solution that efficiently removes impurities, ensuring higher quality cereals and feeds while reducing energy consumption by 15% with advanced air-recycling technology.

The Vitaris Combicleaner MTKC from Bühler is a robust engineered-to-order solution designed for effective grain and pulse cleaning and separation. It combines the functionality of a separator and combistoner in a modular system. The machine utilizes a high-efficiency aspiration process to remove coarse, fine, and light impurities, ensuring a cleaner product flow.

This system finds applications in food, feed, and agricultural sectors, efficiently handling products like whole wheat flour, basmati rice, and cattle feed pellets. With a processing capacity tailored for continuous high-speed operation, it integrates seamlessly into production lines.

Energy consumption is cut by up to 15%, leveraging recirculated air and frequency converters to reduce air use by as much as 90% in the process. Built from FDA-approved materials, including stainless steel, it prioritizes hygiene and food safety, a critical requirement given its deployment in facilities handling food products.

The Combicleaner is designed for easy maintenance, featuring a quick-clamp system for rapid sieve changes. Its modular design allows for customization to meet specific cleaning requirements, supported by Bühler’s engineering expertise to ensure optimal performance for diverse industrial applications.
