length and/or diameter, density," Galli said. He then listed all
the machinery required for this kind of operation, explaining
their use and functionality.
This included the SRP Precleaning Rotary Separator, which
ensures impurities separation, and the SPR Rotary Grain
Separator, which cleans grains.
The TRR Air Recirculating Aspirator and the TRV
Rectangular Vibrating Aspirator separate physical impurities
for weight difference.
The TSV Dry Stoner, CSA Cilynder Separator Unit and
TDV Gravity Separator are used to classify cereals, and the
Pixel Color Sorter is used to eliminate contaminants.
Scouring and debranning of cereals can be accomplished
with the SIG Intensive Horizontal Scourer and DHB Vertical
Debranner, while the online-MGA Multifunction Grain
Analyzer helps with grain mixing and conditioning.
Galli noted that today's consumers are increasingly aware
and demanding of what they are eating. "One of the key asSHFWVRIQHZWUHQGVLVWKH¿JKWDJDLQVWFKHPLFDODQGELRORJLcal contaminants in cereals, since standards are becoming
increasingly stricter throughout the production chain and consumers are more and more attentive to such aspects."
He stressed that even though technology has come a long
way, it is impossible to fully eliminate the problem of contaminants. However, what is essential to accurately manage
and monitor the entire production chain is to reduce negative
impacts. In this respect, he also showed and illustrated several
innovative machines, which, during processing, involve grain

"The latest estimates indicate that about 20% of the world's
cereal production goes to waste and/or is damaged due to inadequate storage systems," Galli said.
He noted that in order to avoid such waste, it is important to

and size of individual silos is also essential to ensure the segregation of products divided into equal batches," he said. "It
is important to keep temperatures constant and monitored, so
that the humidity content does not rise, thus producing microenvironments that may favor an increase in contamination."
Galli noted that the Ocrim team's research indicates that a
partial solution to this issue could be achieved through several
measures: a proper cereal handling method; memorization of
cycles for each type of product stored; prevention of emergencies; and real-time management of the quantities contained in
each silo and of the simultaneous storage of different products; and historical traceability of the temperatures reached
for each cereal batch during its storage.
Galli also discussed several key solutions offered by the
automation systems produced by Ocrim, which stems from a
