Threshing Process – ADDAMS Harvest Separation Systems
Efficient Separation of Grain, Seeds, and Pods for Clean, Usable Output
At ADDAMS, the Threshing Process refers to the mechanical separation of seeds or grains from harvested plant material, including pods, husks, heads, and stalks. This is one of the first and most critical stages in processing grains, pulses, legumes, oilseeds, garden seeds, grass seeds, herbs, leaves, and nuts, ensuring the clean detachment of the usable product from its protective coverings.
