The Oat Dehulling Machine Improves the Nutritious Value of Oats

The oat dehulling machine is used to remove the outer straw-like hull of oats.oat dehulling machine The oat hull makes up only about 20% of the total oat grain weight, yet it is one of the most valuable parts of the oat crop for animal feeds because it contains a high amount of fiber and fatty acids. Dehulling oats can significantly increase the yield of the product and make it more valuable to livestock farmers.

Oat seed is a valuable commodity in the world market, and a great number of countries are producing it. To increase the yield of oats, it is important to produce the best quality possible, and this requires an effective dehulling process. In order to obtain the best dehulling result, it is necessary to control all parameters of the oat dehulling process, including the speed and power of the abrasive roller. In addition, the oat dehulling machine must be capable of removing the oat husks while preserving the kernels inside.

In the existing dehulling process, the oat grains are separated into a stream of grains with and without oat hulls. The oat plumules, located at the top end of the hypocotyls, can contact the abrasive roller during dehulling, and they are usually removed as a part of the oat hull. The present invention aims to provide a process for dehulling oats that can retain the plumules and the intactness of the oat grains, thereby improving the nutritive value of the oats.

According to the present invention, the oats are dehulled by lowering the dehulling strength and prolonging the dehulling duration. This can prevent the oat husks from contacting the abrasive roller, thus enabling the oat grains to remain intact and the plumules to be retained on the oat grains.

This is accomplished by lowering the rotating speed of the dehulling mechanism of the abrasive roller assembly and the power of the driving means, preferably separately by 5%-20% and 8%-15%, respectively. In the preferred embodiment, the lowering of the power is achieved by reducing the power of the driving means by about 18.5 kW.
