Vertical seed conditioning system for oil extraction
When preparing seeds for oil extraction, it’s vital to heat and dry them to the correct temperature and moisture levels. This ensures optimal conditioning for further processing.
Ensures precise heating and drying of seeds
The Vertical Seed Conditioner (VSC) from Crown Iron Works is designed for the efficient and precise heating and drying of seeds. Seeds enter through an inlet hopper, passing through a series of heating and air sections. The system’s design allows even heat transfer and moisture removal, which is critical for additional processing. Users control residence time, adjusting the seed rate accordingly. This flexibility optimizes the conditioning process across various seed types including canola, soybeans, and corn germ. The VSC is compatible with low-pressure or flash steam, requires low power for operation, and eliminates the need for high-maintenance grain dryers. With expandable heating sections and various configuration options, the VSC caters to different processing capacities.
