Impact Mills
A mill with impact......
CCMC is pleased to offer the IM40 and IM40H Horizontal Rotor Impact Mills for the corn wet milling third grind application.
By combing gentle action on the delicate corn fibers with powerful crushing power on the bound starch particles, the CCMC’s Mills do make quite an Impact on wet mill bound starch numbers and overall starch yields.
Design features:
Tight manufacturing tolerances and balance specifications on all rotating parts reduce the machine vibration to a minimum, resulting in smooth worry free operation, prolonged bearing life, and overall reduced maintenance costs.
The sturdy frame and motor support were also designed to ensure structural stability and minimize vibration.
How it works:
1. Slurry enters rotor through the feed inlets and is accelerated to pins around the periphery of the rotor by centrifugal force.
2. Rotating pins impact the fiber and starch particles, breaking starch free from the fiber and reducing the particle size of starch grits.
3. The initial impact from the rotating pins fling the particles into the stationary pins on inside of machine housing further freeing the starch from the fiber and reducing particle size.
4. The milled slurry exits the machine through the discharge chute.
Benefits of impact milling:
Compared to traditional disc milling for the corn wet milling third grind application, the Impact Mill offers the following advantages:
Less energy consumption per unit of grind rate.
Less fine fiber generation in the product slurry.
Lower overall bound starch in fiber.
Increased starch yields.
Optimum machine performance across wide range of capacity and feed conditions without need for operator adjustments.
Consistent machine efficiency and product quality across the life and wear cycle of the impact pins.
Less temperature rise across the machine, reducing the risk of starch gelatinization.
Small motor sizer required.
Machine specifications:
Belt drive machine design
Dual flanged feed inlets with flanged cleanout ports
Standard foot mounted motors
Vibration switch with internal adjustable alarm/shutdown limits
Oil lubrication system with air pressure loss detection features is included with the IM-40 machine.
60 degree discharge hopper with flanged outlet
