The Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) Pulse Research Unit requires the supply, delivery and installation of one (1) Laboratory Pin M ll to expand pulse research projects . Delivery is to be to the GC, Winnipeg, Manitoba on or before December 31, 2012.
Laboratory Pin Mill for the Canadian Grain Commission "Pulse" is a derivative of the Latin word puls, meaning "porridge . Pulses are the edible seeds of legumes, like beans, chickpeas, entils and peas. They are rich, not only in protein and starch, b t also in other nutrients such as fiber, vitamins and minerals. P lse production in Canada has been increasing rapidly during the l st 10 years and increased emphasis on the export of Canadian puls crops has given rise to an increased demand for information on t eir end-use quality. The Pulse Research Program section of the Grain Research Laborato y (GRL) at the Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) is to support the GC's mandate, which is to establish and maintain standards of qua ity for Canadian grain and regulate Canada's grain handling syste , to ensure a dependable commodity for domestic and export market . The quality assurance program delivered by the CGC assures cons stent and reliable grain quality that meets the needs of internat onal and domestic markets. The primary objective of the Pulse Research Program at the CGC is to provide insights into the factors that affect biochemical comp nents and end-use quality of Canadian pulse crops. This research eets the needs of pulse producers, marketers and processors for p lse quality information. It also enhances the marketability of Ca adian pulses, which supports the CGC's grain quality assurance sy tem. The Pulse Research Program also involves developing new or i proved methods for measuring and assessing pulse end-use quality. This research provides the pulse industry with consistent and obj ctive measurements for pulse quality and in turn supports the evo ution of grain standards that meet changing industry needs. In order to meet the demand of the Canadian pulse industry on pul e end-use quality and to support the CGC mandate, the GRL's Pulse Research Unit needs a laboratory pin mill to expand pulse researc projects. A pin mill is a piece of equipment with which a pulse aterial is broken into a finer end product. A pin mill consists o two vertical steel plates with horizontal projections (pins) on heir near faces. One disc is stationary whereas the other disc is rotated at high speed. The material is fed by gravity in through hopper, and is thrown outwards by centrifugal action and broken gainst of the projections (pins) before it is discharged to the o ter body of the mill and falls under gravity from the bottom of t e mill. The laboratory pin mill will be utilized to produce very fine pul e flours (
