Bastak Roller Mill

Description

It is a laboratory-type roller mill. It can be used for grinding both tempered and untempered wheat, and after grinding, the flour and bran are collected separately from two different compartments without mixing. It is a blending (pilot) mill that allows for the preliminary determination of flour values before full-scale production, enabling necessary adjustments and corrections. Depending on wheat quality, it offers a flour yield of 50–60%.

ADVANTAGES

• Complies with ICC Standard No. 189.

• It is the best laboratory analysis mill in its class at separating wheat bran from endosperm.

• The device allows adjustment of grinding speed and quantity through its wheat feeding setting.

• Samples obtained from the device can be used to perform wet gluten, gluten index, dry gluten, falling number, fungal falling number, Zeleny sedimentation, and rheological tests.

• Grinding capacity: 150–300 grams.

• Grinding yield: 40–60%.

• Robust, long-lasting, and ergonomic design.

• Offers users a unique grinding experience.

Wheat flour and bran are the two main products obtained from grinding wheat kernels. For the miller who processes the wheat first, quality means high white flour yield and grinding efficiency with low energy consumption. Wheat flour yield is not only important from the milling industry’s perspective but is also a key characteristic of wheat quality.

Using experimental milling methods (AACC 1983, 26-20, 26-21, 26-30) and laboratory research mills, the commercial milling performance of wheat can be determined through trial grinding. With Bastak brand 4000, 4500, 4500S, 1800, 1600, 1650, 1900, and 1900S model laboratory-type double-pass mills, the values of samples to be milled in the factory can be determined in advance, allowing necessary process adjustments and modifications.

Working Principle:

Wheat to be ground in the mill should first be sieved using an analysis sieve to remove foreign seeds and materials. Then, it must be tempered by adding a certain amount of water to facilitate bran separation from the kernel before grinding is performed.

Industrial Application Areas:

Bastak produces 8 different types of mills, including roller, hammer, and burr mills. It is the only manufacturer in the world with such a wide range of mill types. These diverse mills enable the performance of various tests, including moisture, physical, chemical, microbiological, physicochemical, photochemical, rheological, and organoleptic analyses.

Our mills are used in many sectors required by the industry. Bastak technology—including its laboratory mills—has over 20,000 devices actively operating in 150 countries worldwide. Globally, a substantial portion of economic value is classified based on tests performed on samples prepared by Bastak laboratory mills. These mills have received ICC standards and are offered for use by universities, academics, research centers, and international quality control laboratories worldwide, having gained international recognition.

Results obtained from these mills are unquestionably accepted worldwide. From the analysis of raw materials at the factory entrance to quality control of semi-finished products, these values ensure that the quality of the output is predetermined. Companies use our highly precise, internationally standardized laboratory mills to classify raw materials worth millions of dollars, determine their economic value, and ensure confidence in their final products. By identifying potential issues before production, taking necessary measures, and adjusting raw material blends, they rely on Bastak laboratory mills to achieve target quality.
