Key Components of a Sunflower Seed Processing Line

1. Cleaning and Sorting

• Pre-cleaning: Removes impurities like dust, stems, and stones.

• Grading: Separates seeds by size for uniform processing.

• Optical Sorting: Eliminates defective seeds using advanced sensors.

2. Dehulling (Optional)

• Mechanical or air-pressure systems remove hulls for oil extraction or snack production.

3. Roasting (For Edible Seeds)

• Adjustable temperature and time ensure consistent flavor and texture.

4. Pressing (For Oil Extraction)

• Cold pressing retains nutrients, while expeller pressing maximizes yield.

5. Refining (For Edible Oil)

• Filtration, degumming, neutralization, and deodorization produce high-quality oil.

6. Packaging

• Automated weighing and sealing maintain freshness for retail or bulk distribution.
