B Pin Mill (Impactor)
The B Pin Mill is used to grind grains into flour, semolina, and bran at high throughtput rates. Its most advanced design meets the stringent requirements of the modern Flour Milling industry while producing big volumes of flour without damaging the starch with high temperatures.
Pin mills feature a fixed bolts row within which moving bolts rotate. Because of the relative high speed among bolts, it is not necessary to employ perforated screeners. By modifying such speed, the conical shape of the bolts, and the distance among them, granules of different sizes can be obtained.
Impact mills have a wide scope of use:
- Because they are able to generate higher volumes of flour, pin mills are used in Flour Mills as a replacement of horizontal roller mills in some passages. In this way the operation of the rest of the machines within the mill is simplified.
- Pin mills are also employed when fine granules needs to be obtained. In those cases, hammer mills are not applicable because their having perforated screens.
