MILLING TECHNO LOGY

imilago is founded on operation speed practicality, safety, hygiene and precision, its details have been dissolved in a perfect manner and furthermore it is a status symbol. The disassembling of a roll set and assembling of another roll set is performed within 20 minutes; the roll set is applied to a simple vehicle by being lifted via a mechanism used

on every machine without utilising any other external lifting mechanism; furthermore, in the assembling stage, all these details are realised with practical solutions without the use of any special tool. Hygienic conditions have been ensured to all internal surfaces at an utmost degree. Apart from conventional feeding systems,

for which no practical or maximum cleaning could not be ensured in the most rapid way until today, this device provides the opportunity to perform rapid cleaning in a maximum way. It uses either a vacuum cleaner or by wiping out up to the dismountable inlet compartment via its window. Note: this compartment can be opened forwards and upwards automatically and is easily cleaned by opening the cover on the top without performing any other process, thus the compartment is dismounted easily from underneath from the feeding roll and from the main rolls. User will not look into the machine from behind a glass cover anymore and must not open a glass cover for cleaning the external surface. This is a standard structure that can be applied to standard chassis on single-deck and double-deck models. Moreover, on the same body, a montage of 250mm and 300mm rolls can be implemented. Especially setting and positioning precision of roll spaces and the position repeat precision have achieved values that could not be accomplished before and this provides an opportunity of top setting automation on the same structure. However, although a feeding automation product level control is performed with several different methods, this has been dissolved with a user-friendly system requiring

no re-calibration for any other product. Practical use is enhanced through special software solutions, graphics and a touchscreen, which asked the question: what else would a wheat kernel, a miller, the companys boss or the end consumer wish for? Its power, durability, simplicity for being easily comprehended by anyone adds to its aesthetic, additional performances and additional efficiencies which are proven additional advantages.

For control purposes, an isolated door with double walls (Alapala design) is provided. This door operates with a weight system without a latch and it can be quickly mounted/dismounted without any bolted connection. For maximum hygiene, all surfaces are smooth to prevent dust catching and even the remotest parts are designed to allow easy access and quick cleaning. Especially the inaccessible chamber in

Product intake and product feeding system

A transparent polycarbonate glass is provided, which can be easily dismantled from outside, for cleaning without the need to dismantle the intake pipe or any other part.

A dispensing hoe is provided at the back for evenly distributing the product on the roller surface and a feeding system, equipped with specially profiled spreader cylinder and manually adjusted trap-door for setting the spreading thickness of the product, is provided at the front. In single- and double-deck models of Similago the same frame is used for 250mm and 300mm diameter rollers.

Similago: Functional parts

The carrier frame is a desk type. The bearings and rollers are directly mounted onto the frame. It is machined with CNC as a whole with precision parallelism and is made of high strength special quality carbon steel in a welded structure. It has a sturdy construction and provides high efficiency, high performance, effective and efficient operation that is reliable and long servicing, precision and strong in structure, complete sealing and requires little maintenance. In the hygienic milling chamber, the rollers differentially driven by special profiled belt and pulley group - with tensioning pulley carry out the milling operation. The overheating of the rollers is controlled by means of the air circulation delivered by the aerodynamic structure and the chamber is free of dust-catching corners and details.
