Zusammenfassung:This invention refers to a modular system for a grain cracker, and a grain cracking system and method that generates cracked grains within a predetermined specification. The modular system comprises a motor (124); a PLC (134); and an external optimization unit (136) to drive the motor (124), based on an adjustment point (A). The grain cracking system (100) comprises: rollers (110); and a programmable logic controller, PLC (134), configured to: obtain an adjustment point (A), and control the gap between the rollers (110) from the obtained adjustment point (A). The grain cracking method comprises the steps of: obtaining (510) an adjustment point; controlling (520) the gap between the rollers; and altering (530) the adjustment point, should the characteristics of the cracked grains coming from the rollers not be compliant with the desired specifications, wherein the step of altering the adjustment point is performed continuously and automatically.
