Introduction
Behind every bag of chickpeas or lentils on the shelf is a story of precision, hygiene, and industrial innovation. In today’s food industry, quality isn’t just a preference—it’s a requirement. Modern pulses processing lines have become critical for ensuring that legumes meet international safety standards and maintain consistency from harvest to packaging. At Alloy Industrial Sourcing, we deliver turnkey solutions designed to transform raw, unrefined pulses into export-grade, food-safe products.
Why Food Safety Matters in Pulses Processing
Pulses often arrive at processing plants with contaminants like dust, stones, metals, and moldy grains. Without proper treatment, these can compromise food safety, trigger health violations, and lead to costly recalls. In global export markets, food-grade certification is not optional—it’s essential.
Alloy Industrial Sourcing integrates hygiene, automation, and quality control in every stage of the pulses processing line to eliminate risks before they become problems.
Common Contaminants in Raw Pulses:
•Soil and mud clumps
•Broken or immature grains
•Stones and heavy particles
•Ferrous and non-ferrous metals
•Mold, discoloration, or insect damage
Step-by-Step: How Alloy’s Pulses Processing Line Ensures Quality
1. Receiving & Pre-Cleaning
Pulses are unloaded into an intake hopper where vibrating screens and aspiration systems remove large debris and light impurities like leaves, pods, and dust.
2. Magnetic Separation
Powerful magnetic separators remove any metal fragments introduced during harvesting or transportation, protecting downstream machinery and ensuring compliance with food safety standards.
3. Destoning
Our destoner machines use air and vibration to isolate heavier contaminants like stones and sand that could damage equipment or endanger consumers.
4. Grading & Sizing
Cylindrical and rotary graders separate the legumes by size and shape, eliminating irregular or broken grains that fail to meet export specs.
5. Gravity Separation
Using air-controlled tables, pulses are separated based on density. High-quality, dense grains are kept, while lighter, defective grains are filtered out.
6. Optical Color Sorting
High-resolution cameras scan every grain. Advanced software detects discoloration, mold, or damage and removes flawed grains instantly with air jets.
7. Polishing (Optional)
In markets where visual appearance adds value, pulses can be polished to enhance shine and remove micro-dust.
8. Final Quality Check & Packing
Before packing, the pulses undergo a final inspection using sensors and human operators. Automated weighing and packing systems then ensure exact quantity and hygienic sealing.
