Vertical Friction Polisher
XPF-50/60
XPF-50D/50M
The Vertical Friction Polisher applies uniform pressure while vertically aligning the rice with gravity, resulting in a higher milling recovery rate.

Product Features
High Milling Recovery Rate
Our XPF-50/60 mills the rice evenly without excessive power because the input rice is already ground uniformly by the XPA-25 in the previous milling process. Consequently, the milled-rice recovery rate is higher by 0.5 to 1.0%*.
* As per our internal tests.
Low Milling Temperatures
Since the rice flows vertically down during milling, the pressure inside the milling chamber becomes even. This results in significantly lower temperatures compared with traditional machines.
Optimal Residual Grain Removal
Residual grain can easily be discharged by simply moving the exhaust lever manually.
Easy maintenance
Because of its simple structure, machine parts can be easily replaced. The XPF-50’s structure follows the same simplified design approach as our XPA-25. Thus, maintenance tasks are quicker and easier.
Dry & Mist Type Polisher Options
We offer two innovative approaches to achieving higher quality white rice.
- Vertical Friction Mist Polisher: Our XPF-50M machine features a mist treatment that sprays water on the surface of white rice to whiten its appearance.
- Vertical Friction Dry Polisher: Our XPF-50D machine provides a polishing treatment that removes residual bran without using water.
Customer Stories
One of our customers operates a large rice milling plant in Philippines. Using our Abrasive Whitener and Friction Polisher machines significantly increased their milling recovery rate and their presence in the market.
