Abstract: This invention refers to a modular system for a grain cracker, and a grain cracking system and method that generates cracked grains within a predetermined specification. The modular system comprises a motor (124); a PLC (134); and an external optimization unit (136) to drive the motor (124), based on an adjustment point (A). The grain cracking system (100) comprises: rollers (110); and a programmable logic controller, PLC (134), configured to: obtain an adjustment point (A), and control the gap between the rollers (110) from the obtained adjustment point (A). The grain cracking method comprises the steps of: obtaining (510) an adjustment point; controlling (520) the gap between the rollers; and altering (530) the adjustment point, should the characteristics of the cracked grains coming from the rollers not be compliant with the desired specifications, wherein the step of altering the adjustment point is performed continuously and automatically.

Abstract: A measurement system (100), a measurement method, and a calibration method for a grain particle granulometry measurement system run through a cracking process, in order to define their particle granulometry and analyze its functioning. The grain particle granulometry measurement system (100) comprises: a vibration measurement device (110); and the processing unit (150) connected to the vibration measurement device (110), wherein the vibration measurement device (110) is configured to measure the vibration characteristics of a vibration caused by impacts generated by the grain flow in the vibration measurement device. The grain particle granulometry measurement method comprises: measuring (320) the vibration characteristics caused by the impact of the grain flow; and calculating (370) the grain particle granulometry in the grain flow.

Abstract: This invention refers to a grain flaking modular system, a grain flaking system, and a method that produces a grain flake within a predetermined specification. The grain flaking modular system comprises: valves (124); a PLC (130) connected to the valves (124); and an external optimization unit (140) connected to the PLC (130), wherein the external optimization unit (140) is configured to define a pressure reference (A). The grain flaking system (100) comprises: flaking rollers (110); and a programmable logic controller, PLC (PLC), configured to: obtain a pressure reference (A), and control a flaking pressure through the pressure reference (A) obtained. The grain flaking method comprises: obtaining (210) the pressure reference; applying (220) a flaking pressure to a flow of grains, wherein the flaking pressure is defined through the pressure reference obtained; and adjusting (230) the pressure reference.
