Hammer Mills - Uses and Advantages in Grinding Oil ...

Generally, Hammer Mills are machines which are used to shred materials into fine particles or they are machines used to break and crush pieces of hard, frangible materials, such as rock and mineral ores, into smaller pieces. They are used in several industries including milling grain, fruit juice production, ethanol plants, shredding paper, waste management and in farm machines which mills grain into coarse flour.

It is also known as Disintegrators that are used for grinding oil seeds. It is also a very important and vital part of the oil extraction process, which helps in increasing the quality level as well as the quantity of the extracted oil.

Operation

Hammer Mills are made of cast iron and are fitted on a spindle shaft. This shaft revolves on roller bearings. The machine comprises of a number of beaters, which revolves at a very high speed in the grinding chamber. The seeds are fed through the opening, which goes straight into this chamber where they are continuously grinded and beaten with the beaters. The fine grinded materials are then discharged through the interchangeable filter screen which is located on the bottom of the machine. Due to the number of beaters and their speed, the materials that are fed into the machine are reduced to fine powder in only a short period. The beating of the seeds can be adjusted and controlled as per the user's requirement.

Availability

Hammer Mills are known as the best grinding machine for all kinds of material, besides oil seeds. A wide assortment of highly developed and advanced Hammer Mills / Disintegrators are available in the market today. They are fabricated to have a strong and sturdy body and are also available in different types, size, and capacities. These come with automatic controls, which makes the machines very easy to use. The number of hammers can also be customized as however the user requires it. Its use increases the output by a large quantity, thus saving more time and energy.

The advantages of roller vs hammer mills

The Advantages of Roller vs Hammer Mills

Koot Jordaan | February 3,

In regions that prefer very fine maize flour, like Angola, Tanzania and Uganda, hammer mills are traditionally considered more cost-effective at producing a fine meal compared to roller mills. Roller mills, in turn, are better known for producing coarser flour. But which is the most profitable in the long run?

&#;Both hammer and roller mills have their advantages. A combination of both can maximise production capacity and cost-effectiveness, and removing anything from product that went through a hammer mill is very difficult.

&#;After the degermination stage, a roller mill will prepare your maize meal for final milling by the hammer mill. This process will give you an enhanced product and vastly improve your extraction rate and profitability by balancing the process so that each machine, hammer mill and roller mill, can play to their strengths.

HERE&#;S HOW:

&#;STEP 1: DEGERMINATION TO INCREASE QUALITY&#;

Germ and bran are removed from the maize kernel during the degermination stage. But because maize kernels are not all the same size, a degerminator will leave a small percentage of bran, even at its optimal setting. Removing this bran is key to improving your maize meal quality.&#;

STEP 2:&#;ROLLER MILLS WITH SCREENS TO INCREASE EXTRACTION&#;&#;

In this process the bran is effectively cut away from the endosperm and separated from the maize meal by a combination of rollers and screens, extracting the maximum flour and only passing the product that you want in your end product to the hammer mill.

STEP 3:&#;LARGE CAPACITY HAMMER MILLS

Hammer mills are far better at producing a fine product, as they cannot do any product separation, so effectively what you put in, only comes out when it reaches the desired size. Since the product it receives from the roller mill stage is made up of the same size and type of product, the hammer mill can mill at very large volumes using less electricity, as it&#;s not working as hard.

Installing a roller mill into your milling process will improve extraction rates by 3 to 5%. In some cases, extraction rates improve by up to 10%. This improved extraction rate will help ensure that your mill is profitable in a competitive market.&#;

&#;At Roff, we consider the most profitable solution for our customers over the long term, while still taking affordability into account. We recommend a combination of degerminators, roller mills and hammer mills for fine flour requirements.
