Meal grinding must be set up to give a definite and desired product. The original concept of solvent extracted soybean meal grinding was to use the two‐stage grinding system. However, the advent of front end hull removal equipment resulted in the development of the single stage grinding system, utilizing the grinders with just one sifter. This system lends itself well to grinding on stream. Meal grinding installations must be carefully planned to accommodate all parameters, such as desired consistency of finished product, dust control, conveyance systems, placement of all equipment in meal grinding system, and provisions for hot‐meal, or wet‐meal grinding requirements.
