Why Is Cleaning Important?

Cleaning is crucial in any industrial process, especially in the food industry where hygiene and cleanliness are top priorities. Cleaning your corn deep processing machinery regularly can help prevent contamination and bacterial growth in your final product, resulting in a higher quality end-product. Neglecting cleaning can lead to product defects, reduced production efficiency, and increased downtime due to maintenance and repairs.

When Should You Clean Your Machinery?

The frequency of cleaning depends on the type of machinery, the degree of usage, and the processing environment. However, we recommend cleaning your corn deep processing machinery at the end of each production run or shift, especially between different product runs or when changing processing parameters. This ensures that any remaining product residues are removed from the machinery and that there is no cross-contamination between different products.

What Parts of the Machinery Should Be Cleaned?

All parts of the machinery that come in contact with the corn product should be cleaned thoroughly, including hoppers, conveyors, mills, separators, and pipes. It is essential to clean and sanitize these parts to prevent bacterial growth and maintain product quality. Additionally, it is crucial to clean the control panels and electrical components to prevent electrical hazards and maintain operational safety.

How to Clean Your Corn Deep Processing Machinery?

Before cleaning your machinery, ensure that it is shut down and disconnected from the power supply and that all moving parts have come to a complete stop. Use clean water, mild detergents, and food-grade sanitizers to clean the machinery. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can damage the machinery and affect product quality.

Here are some essential steps to follow when cleaning your machinery:

1. Remove all product residues from the equipment using brushes, scrapers, or compressed air.

2. Wash all surfaces of the machinery with clean water and mild detergent.

3. Rinse all surfaces with clean water to remove any detergent residues.

4. Sanitize all surfaces using food-grade sanitizers as per the recommended concentration and contact time.

5. Rinse all surfaces with clean water to remove any sanitizing residues.

6. Allow the machinery to dry completely before starting it up again.
