About this file

This document contains technical specifications for a Fanning Mill Seed Cleaner, detailing the equipment's design and functionality for agricultural seed processing. The seed cleaner features a multi-stage cleaning process involving three 24-1/2" x 22-1/4" screens that systematically remove foreign materials, trash, and weed seeds through scalping and sifting techniques. The machine uses a top screen for initial large material removal, bottom screens for split flow sifting, and a bottom blast fan to eliminate lightweight debris and dust.

Standard features include a tubular steel frame, inlet feed hopper, 1-1/2" eccentric shaft, Scotch-Ply shoe hangers, ball tray screen cleaning, adjustable bottom air cleanout door, and a 1 Hp, 60 Hz, 1800 RPM single-phase electric motor operating on 115/230 volts. The equipment is designed to provide a comprehensive cleaning process that separates good product from unwanted materials through mechanical screening and air separation, ensuring high-quality seed output.

Fanning Mill – Seed Cleaner Specs

The commodity is fed into the hopper and is spread evenly across the full width of the top screen. The product then moves across the top screen, which has openings larger than the product itself. The large foreign material is "scalped" off while the good product falls through the screen. The bottom two screens are set up for split flow sifting. The bottom screen openings must be smaller than the commodity being cleaned. Trash, weed seeds and splits drop through the bottom screens while the good product passes over them. The bottom two screens can also be set up as a scalp/sift flow by removing and replacing some internal blanks. Next, the product is routed through a column of air from the bottom blast fan. This blast of air effectively removes any lightweight trash and dust that may have remained after screening. Good clean product is discharged at the bottom of the air chamber.

Must include these standard features:

• Tubular Steel Frame

• Inlet Feed Hopper

• Heavy Duty 1-1/2" Eccentric Shaft, Drive and Counterbalance.

• Scotch-Ply Shoe Hangers

• 3 Screens 24-1/2" x 22-1/4" Flows included: scalp, scalp, sift or scalp, split-sift

• Ball Tray Screen Cleaning

• Adjustable Bottom Air - Bottom Cleanout Air Door
