The present invention relates to a pulse polishing machine. In one embodiment, the machine includes a base frame having protruded vertical supports at longitudinal ends 5 and a rotor assembly placed between the vertical supports through a drive shaft. Rotor assembly having plurality of rotary disks mounted at the ends and centre of the drive shaft and a circular cam assembly fixed on the rotary disks. Further, a sheet basket assembly having plurality of circular shaped segments surrounds the rotor assembly defines the polishing chamber. An inlet means and an outlet means are positioned on the 0 sheet basket assembly at diagonally opposite ends. Segments of split covers are used to cover the polishing chamber from either ends. And the ends of the polishing chamber are covered by a pair of split covers. An electric motor is connected to one end of the drive shaft to impart rotary motion to the rotor assembly for polishing pulses.

A surface-worked granular product is produced by supplying raw granular material to a cylindrical retainer having apertures and retaining sites, floating the granular material by suctioning air from the cylindrical retainer, rotating a rotary working device installed in the cylindrical retainer, and contacting working protrusion protruding from the working device with the granular material to remove foreign substances and to perform surface-working of the granular material so as to form a rough surface without causing degeneration, denaturation or substantial removal of useful ingredients, wherein the surface-worked granular product has surface characteristics different from raw granular material.

A rotor (1) for a grinding machine (2) for the foodstuffs and feedstock industry, having an external diameter of between 0.5 and 0.6 m, comprising a plurality of substantially cylindrical, in particular hollow cylindrical, grinding elements (3). One such grinding element (3) has an outer grinding surface (4) substantially in the form of a circular cylinder jacket, and the grinding elements (3) are arranged coaxially above one another and in such a way that a substantially annular air gap (5) is produced between the grinding surfaces (4) of two adjacent grinding elements (3). A ratio between an enveloping surface (H) of the rotor (1) and a total grinding surface of the rotor (1) is greater than 1.05 and less than 1.25.

Improved methods and apparatus for dry hulling or dry peeling harvested crops, particularly pistachio nuts, are disclosed. The methods and apparatus of the present invention provide crop harvesting with great efficiency resulting in consistently high percentages of hulled or peeled crops and low percentages of nut breakage, without increasing processing times regardless of the sizes of the crops being hulled or peeled. The methods and apparatus of the present invention also provide for a relatively small overall machine footprint, plus easy and efficient removal and replacement of the impingement drum to accommodate for different drum speeds, different crop sizes, different bolt patterns, different bolt sizes, and other variations allowing embodiments of the invention to be used on a wide range of nuts and vegetables of different varieties, sizes and shapes.
