Rice Milling Production Process
Paddy
01
Cleaning
Cleaning
The first step in rice milling is cleaning, where impurities like stones, dust, straw, and other foreign materials are removed from the raw paddy. This step is crucial because contaminants can damage milling equipment or affect the quality of the final product.

Dehusking or dehulling
Dehusking or dehulling
In this process, the husk or outer layer of the paddy is removed to expose the grain underneath. This is usually done using a huller machine, which separates the husk without damaging the rice kernel.

Milling
Milling
The milling stage is where the husked rice is processed to remove the bran layers, leaving behind the white rice kernels. This step can involve one or two stages, depending on the desired result. In single-stage milling, the bran and germ are removed in one go, while in multi-stage milling, the process is more gradual to ensure better quality and less grain breakage.

Polishing
Polishing
Once the rice has been milled, the next step is polishing, which smooths and improves the appearance of the rice grains. Polishing machines work by gently rubbing the rice grains to create a glossy finish, making the rice more visually appealing to consumers. This step also helps in removing any remaining bran residues that may have been left during the milling process.

Sorting & Grading
Sorting & Grading
Sorting and grading ensure that only high-quality rice is packed and sold. This step involves separating broken grains from whole ones and classifying the rice based on size, shape, and color.

Packaging
Packaging
The final step in the rice milling process is packaging. Proper packaging ensures the rice remains fresh, clean, and protected from environmental factors such as moisture, pests, and contamination. Depending on the market and distribution needs, rice can be packaged in small consumer-friendly bags or large bulk containers.
