The plansifter, an essential piece of equipment, plays a critical role in flour and semolina processing plants and is significant at all stages of the grinding process in a flour mill. It efficiently classifies by-products according to grain size and effectively separates the flours.
Products from a single or double inlet box are elevated to the upper sieve of the mounted plansifter flour mill machine. Depending on the operating principle, the product progresses along the sieve and reaches the exit, thereby classifying the product by sifting various grain types in standard and horizontally divided passages. The machine is available in two types: the standard 6464 sieve with a typical sieve area and the Jumbo 7474 sieve with an extended sieve area.
Designed to provide efficient and precise sifting, the machine relies on rotating adjustable weights mounted on a central shaft. This mechanism ensures the necessary oscillation for effective operation. The sieves use two types of frames: standard wooden frames and nova frames made of stainless steel or aluminum. Notably, the sieve structure is free from defects, such as pits or holes that can harbor bacteria, ensuring a smooth structure. Depending on the product to be ground, nylon silk or stainless steel silk is used in the frames as per the provided diagram.
In addition to the plansifter flour mill machine, spare parts are vital for ensuring maintenance and smooth operation. These plansifter spare parts contribute to the equipment's longevity and continuous functionality, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the grinding process.
