Key Features

High Efficiency Cleaning & Conditioning

  • Dedicated 15 TPH × 2 pre-cleaning units supporting all lines
  • Standalone fine cleaning systems for each line
  • Removal of coarse/fine impurities (stones, mud balls, straws, dust, immature grains)
  • Raw material drying system designed for safe storage and uniform processing

Advanced Milling & Dehulling

  • Latest generation pulse hullers with adjustable speed and milling chamber settings
  • Long-life emery grit stones for higher uptime and reduced maintenance
  • Automated oil/water addition systems with paddle mixing conveyors

Automation & Control Systems

  • Fully automated MCC-cum-PLC – SCADA based control
  • Sensor-enabled process monitoring & automated pneumatic slide gates
  • Auto sequence start/stop for all process sections; instant restart after interruptions
  • End-to-end traceability and visualization of operations

Engineering, Safety & Specialized Equipment

Future-ready plant design with a strong focus on safety, hygiene, and consistent output quality.

Engineering Excellence & Safety

  • Steel braided cables (rodent resistant) & mesh type cable trays (prevents insect/lizard nesting)
  • Cyclonic aspiration for a dust-free plant environment
  • Clear maintenance access around machinery; platforms designed for future expansion

Specialized Equipment

  • High-end imported Korean colour sorter for consistent output quality
  • Steam-based indirect hot air grain dryer ensuring uniform and hygienic drying

Operational Intelligence

  • Multi-path & multi-input process selection; instant digital reports on yield, production, stoppages, and power
  • Reduced operator dependency, lower idle running and power consumption, jam-free restarts
  • Prevents mixing of different grades (e.g., Sawa vs. Fatkadal)

Why Automation Matters

Most traditional 20–30 TPD non-automated dal mills face operational limitations and quality inconsistency.

  • High labour dependency and inconsistent quality
  • Difficulty in yield calculation and poor nightshift productivity
  • Inconsistent oil/water addition and frequent machine jams
  • Grade mixing, overflow losses, and high power wastage due to idle running

The ISP Advantage

ISP’s fully automated 240 TPD facility eliminates traditional pain points and strengthens consistency at scale.

  • Consistent and superior product quality
  • Full process visibility and traceability
  • Lower manpower requirement and reduced operational cost
  • High throughput with minimal downtime; hygienic, dust-free infrastructure
