Agro Processing Machinery for Rice, Grain and Palm Oil

How our agro processing machinery fits a working mill

Most buyers do not want just one machine. They want a set of units that pass grain from one stage to the next with no hold-ups. The groups below follow that flow, so you can see where each model sits and what it does.

Cleaning and separating paddy

Stones and heavy dirt wear out rollers fast, so cleaning comes first. Our agro rice destoner models, such as the Rice Vibration Cleaner, shake out stones and heavy impurities before milling. After husking, an agro gravity paddy separator sorts unhulled paddy from brown rice so the paddy can go back for a second pass. The double-body paddy separator in this group handles 6 to 12 tons per day, which suits small and mid-sized mills.

Husking, whitening and polishing

The agro combined rice mill joins husking, whitening and polishing in one compact frame. The Complete Set Combine Rice Mill is a good fit for a cooperative that wants one unit instead of a full line. For higher output, a separate rice whitener gives more control over the finish. The emery roller whitener in this group is rated at 2 to 3 tons per hour, while the vertical roller whitener gives a gentle polish for export-grade white rice.

For the smallest sites, the Commercial Mini Rice Mill Machine turns paddy into polished rice in a single unit with a small footprint.

Grinding, lifting and threshing

A hammer mill breaks down maize, grain, feed and crop residue for flour or animal feed. We offer the Agro Grain Pulverizer Machine and the Qualified Hammer Mill in this group. Bucket elevators lift grain up between stages, which saves floor space and cuts the hand work that breaks kernels.

In the field, diesel-engine threshers separate wheat and paddy from the straw, and the diesel corn sheller strips maize from the cob. These run where there is no grid power, which is the case on many farms in East and West Africa.

Palm oil pressing

The agro palm oil press group includes a small high-efficiency palm oil extractor and a general oil extraction press. Both suit village and small-plant processors who press palm fruit or other oilseeds in modest batches.

Choosing the right size and setup

Agro processing machinery is sized around two numbers: the crop you handle and the tons per hour you need. Feed rate, screen size, roller type and motor power all follow from those two inputs. A hammer mill set up for dry maize, for example, will not perform the same way on damp cassava or fibrous husk.

Before we quote, we confirm these points with every buyer:

• Crop and condition. Paddy variety, grain moisture and how much foreign matter arrives from the field.
• Throughput. Target tons per hour or tons per day, and the number of shifts you plan to run.
• Scale. A single mini unit, a combined mill, or a full line of separate machines linked by elevators.
• Power supply. Grid voltage and frequency at the site, or whether diesel drive is the better choice.

Buyers usually ask us whether one mill can handle more than one crop. Some units can, with a change of screens or rollers, but we would rather confirm that against your crop list than promise it up front.

Export supply for Africa and South Asia

Most of our agro processing machinery ships to buyers in Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda and Bangladesh. Rice and maize milling is growing fast in these markets, and many new mills are backed by public farm schemes. Our agro processing machinery is sized for that kind of rural site. You can read port and currency notes on our machinery export to Kenya page and the other country guides.

We work with importers, distributors, contractors and tender buyers. Each export order is packed for sea freight and shipped with a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin. You can see how the Incoterms and documents work on our shipping, Incoterms and export documents page.

Tender and cooperative orders

Agriculture boards and cooperative societies often buy post-harvest equipment through a formal tender. Throughput and crop fit are the usual technical criteria. We match our datasheets to the tender brief and plan a multi-unit order around the delivery window the programme sets. Any compliance documents the tender asks for are confirmed at enquiry, not assumed.

For wider context on farm mechanisation, the FAO publishes guidance on sustainable agricultural mechanization, listed in the references below. If you also need tractors or planting gear, see our wider range of agricultural machinery and equipment.

What to send us with your enquiry

To get an accurate quote, tell us the crop, the throughput you need, the scale of the plant and your destination port. A short note on site power and any tender clauses will save a round of questions. Prices depend on quantity, specification and Incoterm, so they are quoted per order.
