What is the difference between a wheat flour mill and a corn flour mill?

For the production of wheat flour mills and corn flour mills, the cleaning section process is roughly the same with： Plane rotary screen, high-efficiency vibrating sifter, gravity grading stone removal machine and other machine.

Subsequent production has its own characteristics. Wheat production is more complex. Generally, fine grinding and fine-grained milling process is adopted. The milling process is composed of husk mill, dregs mill, wheat core mill, last mill and purifier system. Light grinding,Keep the bran intact. At the same time, the work in progress is carefully divided and different materials are specially processed, so that bran and endosperm can be separated ideally, and the flour extraction rate and finished product quality can be improved, which is the most suitable for producing high-quality flour.

Generally, 4-5 time husk mills (divided into coarse and fine mills), 7-10 time core mills (if use smooth rollers the processing number increased appropriately), and 1-3 time dregs mills are used.

The main task of the husk milling system is to break the wheat kernel, extract a certain amount of coarse grains, coarse flour and flour from the wheat grains, and peel off the bran. The task of the dregs mill system is to scrape off the endosperm adhering to the bran from the coarse grains with skin (called wheat residue) proposed by the skin grinding system and the purifier through a relatively light peeling action, so as to propose high-quality endosperm particles (wheat core), and grind out part of flour with good quality.

The task of the core mill system is to grind the coarse grain and coarse flour of endosperm extracted by the husk mill, dregs mill and flour purifier system into flour with certain thickness and quality. And separate the bad quality bran.

The task of the last mill is to process the bran crumbs with endosperm extracted from each core mill. Scrape the remaining powder from the bran crumbs, thereby improving the purity of the core mill system material.

The task of the purifier system is to separate the husks, dregs and other wheat residues, wheat cores and meal from other systems into husks, wheat dregs and pure wheat cores by quality. High-quality flour is obtained by the above process

The general process of corn flour processing: corn cleaning → damping → degermination → mililng → sifting → finished product.

According to market demand, customers can choose to directly mill or grind the corn one process by one process to produce the finished products required by the market.

At present, corn production also has a process of processing corn flakes, raw materials → cleaning → damping → degermination → steaming→flaking→drying&cooling→milling →sifting →finished product packaging. This process more used in South American for Arepa ,Torilla etc.
