Description
Sesame seed cleaning machine is an essential piece of pre-processing equipment in sesame production. More than just a washer, this machine integrates impurity removal, water washing, and dehydration into a continuous process. This ensures that sesame seeds meet the highest standards of purity, hygiene, and safety before further processing. Fuxun Machinery provides three models, with processing capacities ranging from 1 t/h to 5 t/h, to meet different production needs.

Applications of Sesame Washing Machine
- Sesame Processing Plants — Preparing raw sesame seeds for roasting, tahini making, or oil pressing.
- Edible Oil Mills — Ensuring clean, impurity-free seeds for higher-quality oil extraction and longer machine life.
- Tahini Production — Delivering perfectly washed sesame seeds to guarantee smooth, premium pastes.
- Spice & Grain Industries — Suitable for perilla seeds, black cumin, chia seeds, mustard seeds, and other small grains.
- Food Manufacturing Factories — Ingredients for bakery, snacks, and health products.
- Export & Trading Companies — Providing thoroughly cleaned seeds that meet international quality requirements.
Main Equipment
A complete sesame cleaning system is composed of three main machines: pneumatic lifter, sesame washing machine, and sesame dryer.
1. Pneumatic Lifter:
- Use: Transfers raw sesame seeds smoothly into the washing machine.
- Advantage: Reduces manual labor, prevents contamination, and ensures steady feeding.
2. Sesame Seed Washing Machine
- Use: The core cleaning equipment in the line. Removes sand, dust, husks, and other impurities using spiral agitation and water washing.
- Advantage: Continuous operation, water-saving design, ensures clean and safe sesame seeds.
3. Sesame Dryer (Centrifugal Dryer)
- Use: Uses centrifugal force to quickly remove surface moisture from washed sesame seeds.
- Advantage: Reduces drying time in later stages, prepares seeds for roasting, hulling, or paste production.
Working Principle of Sesame Cleaning Machine
The sesame seed cleaning machine from Fuxun Machinery is specially engineered to tackle the unique challenges of sesame processing.
Step 1 – Feeding: Sesame seeds are lifted and fed into the cleaning tank by a lifter or manually.
Step 2 – Spiral Washing: This machine uses a spiral stirring system that keeps the seeds in constant motion. While moving forward, the sesame seeds are gently scrubbed and rinsed, ensuring that even stubborn dust and sand trapped inside the husks are thoroughly removed. Then the heavy impurities (stones, sand) sink to the bottom; Light impurities (husks, straw, dust) float to the top and are discharged. While clean sesame seeds stay in the middle and are pushed forward for collection.
Step 3 – Discharge: The cleaned sesame seeds exit smoothly from the outlet, ready for drying, roasting, hulling, or paste production.
Features & Advantages
- Spiral Agitation System: Continuously stirs and propels sesame seeds, removing dirt and sand from both the surface and inside the hulls.
- Three-Layer Separation: Separates clean sesame seeds, floating impurities (husks, stems), and heavy debris (sand, stones) for maximum purity.
- Continuous Operation: Designed for seamless, uninterrupted production, reducing labor requirements and increasing throughput.
- Water-Saving Design: Circulating water system and smart discharge reduce water usage and wastewater costs.
