Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of feed production, and in particular relates to a corn flake production device. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of corn flakes, the screening and maturation of raw materials are two crucial links. In the flaking process, since the distance between the rollers of the flaking machine is pre-set, it is impossible to use detection equipment to adjust the roller spacing one by one according to the input corn particles in the face of a huge number of corn kernels. Corn kernels that are too large or too small will affect the operating efficiency and tableting quality of the flaking machine. Therefore, in order to ensure the uniformity and production efficiency of the final product and obtain more consistent corn flakes, it may be necessary to screen out corn kernels that do not meet the size. When processing raw materials, traditional corn flake production equipment often only uses a single screening method in the cleaning and screening links for efficiency. Usually, traditional equipment such as vibrating screens are used. Through the setting of the screen, corn and debris larger than the sieve hole are screened out, and corn and debris smaller than the standard size cannot be screened out, resulting in uneven product quality and increased equipment wear in the subsequent processing process. At the same time, the screening and maturation steps usually need to be carried out in different equipment respectively, which increases the transportation cost and time and affects the overall production efficiency. Summary of the invention
