Destoning Machine

What's your "raw material"?

• casting sand?
• wood pulp?
• apple juice?
  
• coconut shells?
• chicken livers?

If you hope to get any sort of an answer, you'll have to give more detail

The guest is right. Maybe you'll have an easier time removing your material from the stones, but how can we know? I do know that I'll chew more carefully the next time I fry up some livers.

Hello, sandeep.

Well, not sure if your spice packaging enterprise will stand some of the new type of sorting equipment available:

These are the optical sorters that will detect and then remove debris from your product stream with a puff of air. Is this the type of thing you are looking for?

Dude!, there are lots of destoning devices and each is material spacific, PROVIDE A MATERIAL!

Dear Mikerho,

Yes you are right.

But I dont have mail facility in my company.

But I will try my level best to contact you.

Very very sorry,

My product is Mista which we are using in milk masala.

Supplier are using same size shape and color stones which are difficult to know even by good eye sight people.

My workers are coming to me and telling me to find out. may be its good intention.

But I think they are challenging me.

The way doorman recognise me same way I think you people knows me.

He knows me as a person working in spice industry.

and some knows me a person who is failed to reply.

But me I know myself as a CR4 member.

who is not intelligent but want to be under your guidance.

Thank you very much.

Ok, What is Mista, sounds like a herb or spice used in your milk products, if its something lite like a spice then a blower is usually used to remove the spice from the stones using an updraft for the spice and the stones fall down. This can be configured many ways and the blower speed is adjusted to just the right air speed for the weight of the seed, spice, or chafe. pre and post screening eliminates items of larger and smaller size than the desired product.

"Ok, What is Mista..."

Masala is the product: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masala

I am guessing Mista is the tradename for his product.

Ok, he still needs to provide us with a better requirement definition. Which spice, size wt., etc.

We seem to be drifting off an a tangent of some fluffy. powdery material. From the Original Post: "Please help me to remove out stone from my raw material."

Chicken livers, spools of thread, panty hose??? Now, if sandeep and I had not visited previously, I would have NO idea what he is talking about here. I already know sandeep is in the spice trade, but whenever I see a member post some obtuse question, I usually check his profile and past posts for clues. I can usually figure out what the member is looking for. This is especially true if I believe there is a language barrier.

When I think of raw material for spices, I think of whole peppers, whole chilis, ginger roots... those sorts of things. I agree sandeep has not provided a lot of hard information for us here. I do believe he is doing the best he can with what he has available.

"Doing the best he can with what he has available", he has a computer or access to one, he knows his product or should, if he wants agood answer relevent to his problem he needs to provide details, garbage in = garbage out. Doorman spices come in all shapes and sizes and what you think is not necessarily what I think and neither may be what he is talking about, or not talking about.

sorry again for spell mistake

It's a Pista not a mista

If possible I will send you a picture.

Hi Sandeep,

In that case - understandable and you are forgiven.

Supplier are using same size shape and color stones which are difficult to know even by good eye sight people.

Are you saying that your supplied raw material has foreign matter in it? And that it looks very much like the raw material itself?

If so, you need to sample the material and inspect to see if the workers are right. Then you need to look at material specifications.

If not, then please try to explain in greater detail. Communication is very important, and I can see you are getting better and will continue to do so with practice. Use us!

Maybe we should call you Spiceman!

Best Regards,

Mike

Is there any de-stoning device or machine?

Yes, there are several types of de-stoning machines available for this purpose. This is normally an integral part of any cleaning system for grain handling. Here is a description from one of the manufacturer.

Destoner Machine

De-stoner are designed to separate different grains like wheat, rice, pulses, soybeans, etc from grain-sized sand, stones and impurities. They are easy to operate machines with simple and dependable separation by stratifying grains and impurities like stones, metals and glasses.

The destoner machine consists of vibration motors and stainless screen. They are also equipped with regulator. The machine can handle the variable flow very easily thereby resulting in high stone removing efficiency.

How does a Destoner Operate?

The grains are stratified into heavier and lighter fractions by forcing air through the layer of the grains. This is done through pressure fans. The heavier materials are forced up by the vibrating deck whereas the lighter material is forced down the vibrating deck which exits through the clean product spout. For optimum separation inclination of vibrating deck, feed rate, and air flow can be adjusted. For specific application there are different types of vibrating decks.

Ain't it funny how so many times the OP starts a thread and we all jam to answer; the OP never comes back, but we go on and on.

My doctor used a destoning machine on me when I decided I didn't want any more kids.

Me too. I asked the Doc for the removed material. I wanted to put it in a jar on give it to the wife on our anniversary. He said no, it had to be sent out to a lab to make sure he cut the right tubes. That was 10 years ago and no more kids. I guess he got it right.
