Process
Before processing first engage in cleaning of the seeds. Pure water is used for cleaning and use winnowing basket for dusting and dirt removal. The other processing procedures are cleaning, hulling, drying, sortexing, and packing in ascending order.
| CLEANING: After harvesting, the sesame seeds are cleaned and hulled. The first stage of the hulling process is cleaning. The sesame seeds pass through an air separation stage to remove any foreign particles. |
| HULLING:In Hulling process a combination of water and friction work together as the seeds are passed against the Chamber of the hulling machine to separate the hull from the seeds. |
| DRYING:Drying is one of the most important stages in processing to ensure high quality. Further there is the chance of forming poisoning bacteria on some spices which is a real danger if proper washing and drying is not done. For drying we use auto dryers. |
| SORTEXING: Aspiration, Destoner and Gravity machines with the help of which the seeds are graded by size, density, colour and flavour supplying consistently high quality sesame. |
