Figures from earlier tests with other samples: they vary with moisture, the required particle size and the product. Actual throughput is confirmed in the grinding test.

### Technical notes

- A large cyclone is recommended to reduce bag filter changes and stoppages.
- With high fat in the sample, reduced speed made grinding unfeasible; at full speed the process ran smoothly.

**Defatted soybean meal** is obtained from the extraction of soybean oil, leaving only the bran, which is the residue of the pressing.

One of the main **advantages of defatted soybean meal** is its low fat content.

To further improve the quality of the product obtained, it is important to use high performance mills, such as our hammer mills (Moinhos Vieira). Our machines are able to **grind** the product in a **precise** and **uniform manner**, ensuring a high.
