1. Defined Shelling Effect The R&D department of one of the starch producers in Europe focuses development of environmentally-friendly technologies for the extraction of valuable from potatoes and grain. During several research work, the starch producer have developed a treatment process of barley, with which a larger part can be made use of. With the SCHULE machine, type VPC, we succeeded machine which can be used in several which require a gentle and controlled of their products. 2. Gentle Shelling The shelling machine in the mill causes the surface shell (bran), if possible aleurone layer. The gentle and controlled the SCHULE shelling machine increase the capacity and save first coarse meal passages lower bran content. Furthermore, percentage of high-quality increased. Since 1892 SCHULE Mühlenbau have been well acquainted with all cereals-producing countries in the world and the corresponding cereals treatment methods. In the last years SCHULE have supplied large rice processing plants and parboiling plants: rice mills with an input capacity of approx. 20 t/h and parboiling plants with an input capacity of 15 t/h as well as all auxiliary equipment, such as pre-cleaning, silos, husk discharge and combustion plant, steam plant, polish discharge, packing and storage of the finished products. Rice mills and parboiling plants with very high capacities are the speciality of SCHULE Mühlenbau. VERTICONE – The New Shelling Machine for Cereals and Other Products The new shelling concept for gentle treatment of different products, with which it is possible to remove the surface of a grain kernel layer by layer. Two successful applications of the new Schule ”Verticone“ The VPC 480 has already been tested in practice in different sectors worldwide, for example for shelling of barley, malt, durum and soft wheat, peas and lentils. VERTICONE

The smaller diameter of the shelling rotor is at the top, right below the feeding screw, the bigger one at the bottom, directly above the outlet. The shelling effect can be influenced by adjusting the shelling gap, i.e. during operation of the machine the gap between the grinding discs and the screens can be changed by vertical height adjustment of the shelling rotor. This results in an optimum adaptation to different product sizes as well as in an adjustment of the shelling degree. Further possibilities for exercising influence on the shelling degree are the grain size of the grinding discs,...
