Recently, Henan Huatai Grain and Oil Machinery Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Huatai Intelligent Equipment Group, has successfully developed an efficient and energy-saving sunflower seed shelling machine with its technological innovation strength and won the national invention patent (patent number: ZL202011137228.7).

As one of the five major oil crops in the world, the market demand for sunflower seeds has continued to grow in recent years. However, in the production process of sunflower oil, the shelling link has always been one of the key factors restricting production efficiency.
Although the traditional vertical centrifugal shelling machine has a good shelling effect, it has bottleneck problems such as high energy consumption and small processing capacity.
In response to this situation, the research and development team of Huatai Grain and Oil Machinery has finally developed this sunflower seed shelling machine with independent intellectual property rights after unremitting efforts.
This innovative shelling machine adopts a scientific and reasonable design concept to achieve efficient shelling of sunflower seeds.
Among them, the setting of the magnetic separator effectively avoids the damage of iron impurities to subsequent equipment, significantly prolongs the service life of the equipment, and the service life is increased by more than 2 times.
At the same time, the main roller adopts a new structure, which greatly reduces the weight compared with the traditional solid roller, thereby significantly reducing energy consumption, with an energy consumption reduction of more than 40%.
In addition, the setting of the collision rod increases the area of the inner wall of the arc collision plate, increases the matching surface between the main roller and the collision rod, and further increases the processing capacity of sunflower seeds, with the processing capacity increased by more than 60%.
More importantly, the shelling machine also reduces the loss rate and breakage rate of sunflower kernels, further improves the yield of sunflower kernels, and brings significant social and economic benefits to the production of sunflower oil.
As the vice president unit of the China Cereals and Oils Association, Huatai Cereals and Oils Machinery has always adhered to the concept of "innovative development" and is committed to scientific research innovation and technological breakthroughs.
The company has a professional scientific research team of 138 people, with an annual R&D investment of more than 10 million yuan. It has established close cooperative relations with universities and scientific research institutions such as Jiangnan University, Henan University of Technology, and Wuhan University of Light Industry to jointly carry out technical research and development and talent training.
In addition, Huatai Intelligent Equipment Group has also established technology research and development centers in Zhengzhou, Shanghai, and other places, and established a collaborative innovation center with Zhongyuan Food Laboratory to continuously promote the transformation and application of innovative achievements.
Huatai brand sunflower seed shelling machine won the national invention patent, which is not only a strong impetus for the company's continuous innovation and high-quality development but also injected a strong impetus into the development of China's grain and oil equipment industry.
Huatai will continue to deepen its roots in the field of grain and oil machinery, constantly explore new technologies, new processes, and new applications, and contribute more wisdom and strength to promote the progress and development of China's grain and oil equipment industry.
