Process
- The objective of
milling is to produce the maximum quantity of products at a given level
of quality. This is done by a sequence of breaking, grinding and
separating operations. In the whole process we grind the wheat in
grooved rolls softly, so that purest form of Bran can be obtained. In
this process by separating the bran we can get Samolina, Sujji in the
purest form.
- In the intermediate
product where we can not separate out the bran from Semoline, the
Semoline obtained at this stage is called Atta. The finished semolinas
from each purifier are then blended together to make the final products.
The finished flour or semolinas are then redressed and stored in bulk
silos. They are transferred to either bulk tankers or the bag packing
plant through another redressing magnet / metal detector system.
Technology
- Cereals
processing is one of the oldest and most important of all food
technologies and forms a large and important part of the food
production chain. Today, the cereals processing industry is as
diverse as its range of products. Hydropower used by the Greeks to
turn water wheels for grinding wheat into flour, more than 2,000
years ago.
- The new
technology spelt the end of the 'village' mill. A roller mill, with
the accompanying wheat handling equipment and the new ability to
identify and separate mill streams, was capital intensive and
required volumes of wheat which led quickly to a new centralized
milling industry. It was aided and abetted, indeed, made possible,
by the railways, which made the transport of wheat to mill towns and
especially capital cities, much easier and financially possible.
Milling
- The milling of
wheat is basically divided into two sections viz:- cleaning section
and the milling section. The milling section comprises the chaff
remover; destoner; scourer; washing machine; intensive dampner; and
cockle separator. In the cleaning section, wheat is cleaned
thoroughly before milling. In modern flour mills, millstones have
been replaced by steel rollers. Old style reel sifters have been
replaced by modern plansifters
- The milling of
flour from grain has its origins in the early history of all major
civilisations. It is generally regarded as the oldest known
industry. The basic milling technique was to grind the grain between
two stone surfaces. This enabled the tough fibrous bran skin to be
separated from the endosperm, which then was ground into a fine
powder.
Report
- The rise in
production cost has resulted in a decline in output in almost all
roller flour mills in the State. The rise in the price of power
meant an increase in the production cost of wheat products,
rendering them uncompetitive in the market. Since wheat is a staple
food among all segments of the population, there is a constant
demand in the consumer market for wheat products and the demand for
these is always on the increase.
- To produce wheat
flour, wheat grains are transported to milling plant A (250 tonnes),
B (300 tonnes), C (265 tonnes) and D (265 tonnes), producing a total
daily production capacity of 1,080 tonnes. All mills are fully
computerized and equipped with the latest technological
German-imported machinery, acknowledged as the finest in the wheat
flour industry for both efficiency and product quality. To store
wheat flour until required, the company has built 69 silos with a
total storage capacity of 8,000 tonnes, regarded as the country's
biggest wheat flour silos.
- The impact of
flour fortification with iron and folic acid can have a transitional
impact on people and nations. Fortifying with iron can increase
national IQ by 5 percent, increase national GDP by 2 percent and
prevent the deaths of 60,000 pregnant women every year. Fortifying
with folic acid can significantly reduce the 200,000 cases of neural
tube defects such as spinal bifida found every year in newborn
babies.
