Gravity Separator for

Seed and Grain Processing

High-Capacity LMC Gravity Separator for Seed & Grain Processing.

Total, exact, distinct product separation.

The LMC Marc Series Gravity Separator represents the latest evolution of gravity separation technology used in modern seed and grain processing equipment, delivering precise density-based separation for high-value crops.

Engineered to remove low-density contaminants such as foreign material, damaged seed, and lightweight impurities, the Marc Gravity Separator is widely recognized for producing consistent, repeatable separation results across a wide range of applications.

Originally engineered by LMC in 1941 and continually refined to meet modern processing demands, the Marc Series combines proven design with dependable performance. Its balanced construction, low-noise operation, and simple adjustment controls have made it one of the most reliable gravity separators in seed conditioning, edible bean processing, and specialty crop cleaning.

For operations requiring accurate density separation and improved finished product quality, the LMC Marc Gravity Separator delivers dependable, repeatable results in demanding processing environments.

  • Ripple Deck

    The ripple deck design gives the deck covering more traction for the separation process. A more complete and distinct product separations is achieved.

  • Automatic Discharge System

    The pressure driven discharge system eliminates the need for constant monitoring and adjusting as the product flow fluctuates.

  • Adjustable Gates

    Multi-lights adjustable gates enable precise control when adjusting light product discharge.

  • Bed Depth

    A greater bed depth than other gravity separators actually allows LMC's Separators to use the product to make more precise separations.

  • Deck Recirculation

    On the deck recirculation eliminates the need to have middle cuts. Middle cuts, with more handling, increase product damage. Gone are the blends seen on other gravity separators.

  • Fluidized Bed

    The fluidized bed is created using a single, super-quiet, high efficiency fan.

Gravity Separator FAQs

Gravity separators use a combination of airflow, vibration, and deck design to separate seed and grain by density. Below are answers to common questions about how LMC Gravity Separators work and where they are used in real-world seed and grain processing operations.

A gravity separator removes low-density material such as light seed, damaged kernels, weed seed, and foreign material that cannot be removed by screening alone.

LMC Gravity Separators are used across cereals, pulses, edible beans, oilseeds, and specialty crops, with adjustments to match product size, weight, and flow characteristics.

A gravity separator separates product by density, while a color sorter separates by visual characteristics like color, shape, or surface defects. Many facilities use both for maximum purity.

Yes. The Marc Series Gravity Separator is designed for continuous, high-capacity processing with consistent separation accuracy and minimal operator adjustment.
