A rice whitener is an essential piece of equipment in commercial rice milling plants, designed to remove the bran layer from husked brown rice and produce clean, refined white rice. The MNMS series rice whitening machine uses an emery roller and an advanced airflow system to achieve efficient whitening while helping reduce broken grains and improve finished rice quality.

With four models offering processing capacities of 0.8–4.5 tons per hour and motor power ranging from 18.5 to 45 kW, it provides flexible options for rice mills of different production scales. Power configuration, processing capacity, and air volume can also be customized according to specific requirements.

How Does the MNMS Series Rice Whitener Work?

After the husking process, brown rice still has a layer of bran covering its surface. The purpose of whitening is to remove this outer layer and produce white rice with the desired appearance.

The MNMS series uses an emery roller to process brown rice through abrasive friction. As rice passes through the whitening chamber, the roller gradually removes the bran layer. The separated bran is discharged from the machine, while the whitened rice moves to the next processing stage.

Compared with an iron roller, the emery roller has lower processing intensity. This makes it suitable for processing different rice varieties while helping maintain grain integrity and achieve a clean, smooth finish.

The whitening degree can be adjusted according to the rice variety and the requirements of the finished product.

How to Choose the Right Rice Whitener Model?

Selecting a suitable machine requires more than comparing model numbers. Rice processors should consider the following factors before purchasing.

  • Required hourly output: Estimate how much brown rice your plant needs to process per hour. Choose a model that matches your actual production target.
  • Rice variety: Different varieties may require different whitening conditions. Consider the grain characteristics and desired finished rice quality.
  • Motor power: Check whether your factory’s electrical supply can support the selected model’s power requirements.
  • Installation space: Compare the machine dimensions with the available space in your processing workshop.
  • Production line configuration: If your plant requires higher output or multiple whitening stages, consider using several machines together.
