Flour Milling Process and Equipment

The process that turns grain into healthy flour that enrich our daily consumption from bread, cookies, cereals to a multitude of varied foods. However, a series of flour mill production process must happen to the grain until it is marketed and reaches our tables. Flour milling is a complex process that starts the grain from its journey to the final consumer. This long process is divided by a series of steps that is performed in a sanitary manner. A good practice in health science is the result of the analysis of each operation and the development of the analyzes of the designed programs in which, if properly followed, contamination of the ground grain is prevented.

The processes for grains milling can be carried out by hand or in an industrial way. Despite producing at different scales, the objective is to maximize benefits, that is, to choose and classify grains appropriately to maximize production and thus gain more profits. In this way, production is guaranteed and, above all, the performance and quality of the product that is going to be produced and distributed to the final consumer.

The genernal flour milling process is divided into 5 phases which are the reception of the raw material, grain cleaning, classification and selection of the grain, milling, packaging and transportation. And, the basic flour milling equipment includes raw material silo, sifter, destoner, pneumatic mill. high plan sifter, purifier, bran finisher, bagging machine, etc..


Flour Milling Machine and Process

  • Reception of Raw Material

First, it is the selection of the grain according to its properties and qualities.

  • Grain Cleaning

The second stop for the raw grain is in the cleaning section, where it goes through equipment designed to remove all foreign materials such as sand and straw. Then it goes through the polishers that are responsible for removing dust. Also, it should go through a vacuuming process to remove any impurities with air.

  • Grain Tempering

When being cleaned, the grain is directed to be processed, this process is known as tempering, therefore, when the corn or wheat grains are ground, it is necessary to soften the kernels by adding water to condition it.

  • Flour Milling

The flour milling process consists of separating the outer part of the grain from the inner part, to reduce it to a suitable size known as flour. To obtain a higher proportion of flour, the grinding process in its different steps, which are: crushing, reduction and compression, is carried out with a pair system of high pressure cast steel rollers with specific characteristics for each weighing. The sieve is in charge of classifying all the products received from the weighing of the grinding, through a set of sieves, which the product goes through and separates according to the size of the particle, then it is sent to a security sieve. The product is weighed on electronic scales. (Related equipment: Home Maize Grinding Machine >>)

  • Packaging and Transportation

It is transported to the hoppers to store the finished product. The flour can be added with oxidants, whiteners, enzyme levelers or other micro-ingredients to complete its end use objective. The flour is transferred to packing hoppers or bulk cargo. Later, it is packed in polypropylene or paper bags for transportation.

  • First, the size of flour mill plant project you are going to build. How big is the facility you are trying to have built? Clearly, the size of your flour mill will affect your business operations as well as your potential revenue or income. So if you have a bigger or wider flour mill, you will be able to fit more machines and equipment to produce the commodity. This will, in turn, yield greater production of flour in the least amount of time needed.
  • Another factor is the labor-intensive requirements of your flour mill project. The bigger the project, the greater amount of manpower needed as well as the equipment to be used. The time frame for the project will also be considerably greater than a smaller flour mill project. Expect to pay higher if your project has specialized needs or is needed to be completed as soon as possible.
