Detailed view of flour and sugar blending system with storage silos, sugar grinding, conveying and weighing with the following items: 1 Horizontal mixer, 2 Outdoor silos, 3 Small bag tipping station, 4 Sugar agitator hopper, 5 Weighing hopper
A blending plant where flour and sugar is used to make various distinct premixes is an example of a project that has many complex requirements.
Custom designed outdoor silos are used to store flour (the major ingredient). The flour is received directly from nearby flour mills. Sugar and other minor ingredients come to the plant in 25kg and 1-tonne big bags. The bags are tipped into a 25kg small bag tipping station and bulk bag discharger unit. The raw crystal sugar come in bulk bags and is transferred to a robust universal grinder to grind it to a fine sugar powder. This fine sugar is then stored temporarily in a sugar agitator hopper before being transferred to another weighing hopper for further mixing.
The powder handling systems and components used in the biscuit lines of this manufacturing plant example are as follows:
- Exhauster units
- Flour and sugar mixing systems
- Silo and storage system
- Sugar agitation hopper
- Sugar grinder
- Twin small bag dump station
We have much experience and expertise in mixing and blending processes that use either a gentle or high speed mixers. The best choice of mixer depends on the products and characteristics.
