Milling Process of this Small Wheat Flour Grinder
The wheat should be cleaned and moisture content should be adjusted to 13%~15%. Then they can be poured into the feed hopper of the grinding machine (it is possible to add an elevator to lift grain automatically). The wheat will be grinded by the rollers and be milled into flour or powder. The milled materials will flow through the screen and wheat flour will pass the screen and be discharged from the flour outlet while the wheat bran (coarse chaff ) be expelled from the bran outlet. The bran should be collected and send back to the grinding machine for milling once again. Generally, the wheat need to be milled 3~5 times, you can get top-class wheat flour from the first 3 times. The flowing 2 times milling, you can get flour with relatively poor quality. You can also choose to mix the super flour and poor flour to make standard flour.
5 Tips on Choosing Suitable Small Scale Flour Mill Equipment
Because of all these reasons above, it is favored by those who want to start a flour business on a small scale. If you are interested in buying small scale flour mill machinery for your business, then here is what you should look for in the machinery!
1. According to Your Desirable Raw Material
Choose the machine according to the raw material that you want to use. Some parts of the machine are grain-specific. For instance, sieves, rollers, and grinders are available in different types. The sieve can be horizontal sieve or vibrating sieve, choose the one that fits well with your raw material. Similarly, rollers and grinders have different types and orientations. Their main function is to convert grains into flour. They should be chosen based on your raw material, wheat, corn/maize, cassava, rice, or other.
2. Production Capacity
You should also check what the flour production capacity of the machine is. Small scale flour mill has a low production rate as compared to large scale flour mill project. Depending on the machine’s quality, different small scale machines have different production capacities. Some can generate flour in large capacity that is nearly equal to the capacity of large scale machines. So, choose the one that has a high productivity rate and gives you more flour in less time.
3. Nutrient Quantity Should Not Get Affected
Low-quality machines do not produce the end product that have the same nutrient content as the raw material has. Such machines reduce the quality of flour they produce. On the contrary, high-quality flour mill machinery gives the same nutrient content of the flour, as is the nutrient content of the raw material. Make sure you pick the right machinery.
4. Cost of the Machinery
Although small scale machinery is cheaper than large scale machinery, it still can be costly for you if you have a low budget. Choose the one that is not very expensive yet gives high-quality end results. If you find machinery that is costly but is of great quality, then choose quality over money. The reason is, the machinery is a long term investment. It will make your business successful only if it gives desirable results.
5. Manufacturer
The quality of machinery largely depends on the manufacturing company. Do your homework before choosing a brand. It is necessary to find a professional and credible supplier.
