Destoner - Removing Heavy Contaminants

The Benefits of Using a Destoner 

A destoner machine is used to remove heavier contaminants or debris from a product stream or flow. In simple terms, this means it separates unwanted heavy items from the good, lighter products, making sure you only get the quality material you need. This is especially important if you’re processing seeds, grains, or other food products that can often have rocks or metal pieces mixed in. Generally, it removes a small percentage from the flow, but it can be large items including: stones, glass, metals or other heavy items. Destoner machine use is essential because even a few small contaminants can damage other equipment or reduce the quality of your final product. Using a fluidized bed of air and a vibrating deck to move the heavier materials uphill is what the machine does to separate the products into light and heavy materials. Think of it as a smart sifting process that ensures only the best and cleanest products move forward, while heavier, unwanted materials are filtered out. In the conditioning process, the destoner can be used ahead of a gravity separator or behind it.

The destoner machine’s uses will allow for you to have a better quality product in a shorter amount of time. This is because destoner machine use speeds up the cleaning process, allowing your production line to keep moving efficiently without the hassle of stopping to remove impurities by hand. Allowing you to have more focus on other things in your day-to-day activities. On top of that you will have the ability to produce better quality products and unbeatable end results. Whether you’re processing grains, seeds, or even coffee beans, this machine ensures your product is free from contaminants, resulting in higher quality output and a safer product for your customers.
