Emkay Flaking Mill

Emkay Flaking Mill

Specifications

The Flaker body is fabricated from mild steel thick plate and all moving parts are machined very precisely for assembly. Chilled C.I. Rolls are supported on 170 mm bore bearing and split C. I. housings on all sides with bellevelle push back safty device. On the top, hopper is fitted with Feed Roll with adjustable demper and geared motor drive. A permanent magnet with lever is fitted below feed roll to trap iron particles from feed material. Rolls are sealed from side and barrel surface to keep clean with U.H.M.P.E. (special Engineering Plastic).

Dimension

Flaker machine body is common for 500 MM or 600 MM diameter roll size. It is completely assembled. For export it is housed in steel box for container shipping. Actual dimensions of Flaker Machine :

Length - 2000 MM Total Weight with Rolls - 8.5 MT
Width - 1840 MM Installation Area - 3.2 x 3.2 Meter
Height - 1820 MM Extra height for hopper - 2500 MM

The company will supply drawings, manual and misc. documents for erection and start up. Even our engineer can be deputed to commission our machine at your site.

Rolls and Capacity

These are Chilled Cast Iron alloy rolls having hardness 530 BHN upto 20 MM chill depth fitted with shaft and barrel is mirror finished. The capacity of Flaker machine depends upon feed material size, hardness, free from foreign material and Flake thickness required. Example for soyabean in solvent extraction plant is shown below :

Roll Size RPM Electric Motor Drive Capacity (Soyabean)
600 MM dia x 1300 MM length 280 50 HP x 2 Nos 180 MTD
500 MM dia x 1300 MM length 300 40 HP x 2 Nos 150 MTD

Electrical Motors

960 RPM x 440 V x 50 Cycle AC motor of above HP.

Special Features

  • In order to control process of Flaking we have incorporated electro-mechanical devices for trouble free and smooth operation.
  • Electronic level sensor in feed hopper .
  • Motorised vapour exhaust fan above rolls and feed rolls.
  • Electromagnatic cut off lever in case of power failure.
  • Permanent magnet with lever below feed roll to protect rolls from iron pieces.
  • Hydro-machanical combined system with hydro pump to apply pressure on rolls from 10 kg to 70 kg/cm2 as Flake thickness required.
  • UHMPE sealing system for roll side and surface to keep it clean.
  • GRINDO-BLOCK for dressing rolls edges.

Application

  • Flaking soyabean, Sunflower and other oilseeds in Solvent Extraction Plant.
  • Flaking Corn, Rice, Wheat in food Industries for direct consumption.
  • Flaking of Gum Guar and Tamrind Seed for resin and starch production.
