Series HKKF
Bran Finisher
The bran finisher strips residual flour from the bran with rotating beaters inside a perforated screen, raising extraction at the tail of the mill.

The bran finisher recovers the flour still attached to the bran leaving the last sifting passages. A brush and beater rotor inside a perforated cylinder rubs the bran flakes against the screen and releases the adhering flour particles.
The released flour passes through the perforations, is collected and returned to the sifting line, while finished bran leaves at the end of the machine. This stage produces a measurable increase in total flour extraction.
Rotor speed and screen perforation are selected for the product, and capacity and motor rating are given in the model table.

How it works
Working principle
Grinding turns cleaned, conditioned grain into flour, semolina and bran in several passes through roller mills and plansifters.
- 1A feed roll meters the stock into an even curtain across the full roll length.
- 2Two counter-rotating fluted rolls, one faster than the other, shear and crush the grain in the nip; pneumatic engagement lifts the rolls apart when the feed stops.
- 3The ground stock falls to the outlet and is conveyed to the plansifter, which separates it into fractions for the next pass.
