| Abstract | ||
| The experimental work was carried out in Defra at Gharbia governorate, Egypt, during 2014 to 2016.The wheat milling production line consists of many stages such as (receiving, cleaning, separator, tempering ,milling, processes).The experiments were monitoring the performance of wheat milling production line and determined the optimum parameters and conditions for operating production line under using Egyptian wheat. The physical characteristics for wheat kernel and flour were tested, Also adjustments the machines through all line to maximize milling efficiency addition to give high the quality of the final product. The results showing the physical properties of wheat sample, the length ranged from 6.48 to 7.43 mm, width were 3.16 to 4.02 and seeds thickness ranged from 3.29 mm to 3.67 mm. while the maximum value of 1000 grains weight about 50.60 g .The maximum value of cleaning efficiency at the third machine when using Egyptian wheat. The cleaning efficiency ranged from 94.00 to 99.80% . The cleaning efficiencies for separator, dry stoner and tiruer machines must to be more than 99%. The results obtained from damping condition showed increased the moisture content from 10.50 to 13.50 % at the first condition to reach15.5 % at the second condition. Also increased 1000 grains weight, form 50.6 to 61.40 g. at the first condition to reach at the second condition to 65.20 g. While hectoliter weight decreased from 80.90 to 78.20 Kg/m3 at the first condition to reach at the second condition to 77.50 Kg/m3%. Also the break system must adjust milling machine to finished the standard break release percentage value with 30%,as the last stage. | ||
