Grain Grinding Machines (grain mills/crushers) are widely used in agriculture for processing crops like grains, legumes, and animal feed to enhance their utilization value and economic benefits. Here are their main agricultural applications and advantages:

1. Grain Processing

(1) Flour Production

◆ Application: Grinding wheat, corn, rice into flour for bread, noodles, pastries

◆ Equipment Types:

- Stone mills (traditional low-speed grinding, preserves nutrients)

- Steel roller mills (modern high-efficiency, adjustable fineness)

◆ Advantages:

- Improves grain utilization rate

- Produces whole wheat/coarse grain flour for healthier options

(2) Coarse Grain Processing

◆ Application: Processing oats, buckwheat, quinoa into instant powder or mixed grain flour

◆ Requirements:

- Low-speed grinding to prevent nutrient loss

- Adjustable fineness (80-200 mesh)

2. Feed Processing

(1) Livestock Feed

◆ Application: Crushing corn, soybeans, bran for pig/chicken/cattle feed

◆ Equipment:

- Hammer mills (coarse crushing, 1-3mm particles)

- Micro-grinders (high-protein feed, 60-100 mesh)

◆ Advantages:

- Improves feed digestibility

- Allows probiotic/enzyme additives

(2) Aquatic Feed

◆ Application: Ultra-fine grinding (<0.5mm) for fish/shrimp feed

◆ Technology:

- Superfine grinding (200-300 mesh)

- Low-temperature processing to preserve proteins

3. Agricultural Product Processing

(1) Legume Processing

◆ Application: Grinding soybeans/mung beans for tofu/milk/protein powder

◆ Requirements:

- Wet grinding to prevent oxidation

- Integrated peeling/crushing systems

(2) Tuber & Starch Processing

◆ Application: Crushing potatoes/cassava for starch extraction

◆ Process Flow:
Washing → Crushing → Screening → Sedimentation → Drying

4. Agricultural Byproduct Utilization

(1) Straw & Bran Processing

◆ Application: Processing wheat straw/rice husks/soybean meal into:

- Organic fertilizer (after fermentation)

- Biomass fuel (pelletized)

◆ Equipment:

- Straw crushers (high-torque, anti-tangling)

- Pelletizers (for fuel pellets)

(2) Oil Crop Processing

◆ Application: Pre-crushing rapeseed/peanuts for better oil extraction

◆ Optimization:
Coarse crushing before pressing improves oil yield

5. Special Agricultural Applications

(1) Chinese Herbal Medicine

◆ Application: Superfine grinding (>300 mesh) of ginseng/astragalus

◆ Technology:

- Low-temperature grinding (<45°C)

- Anti-oxidation design (nitrogen protection)

(2) Seed Treatment

Application: Crushing corn/wheat seeds for:

Seed coating (with pesticides/nutrients)

Germination testing (controlled particle size)
