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