Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV Eagle: Redefining Industrial Grinding Performance

Modern flour milling requires equipment capable of operating with maximum precision and minimal human intervention. The Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV, part of the flagship Eagle line from the ÇİFT KARTAL factory, embodies the most advanced engineering solutions in grain grinding and crushing. This unit is specifically designed for the production of high-grade flour and semolina, ensuring flawless milling stability throughout every stage of the complex technological process.

Operating Principle: How the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV Eagle Functions

The operation of the Eagle series roller mill is based on the concept of total process automation, which minimizes the human factor’s impact on finished product quality. Grain that has undergone thorough preliminary cleaning on the Drum Sieve ÇKTE enters the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV through a transparent glass housing. This design allows operators to visually assess the raw material flow and the state of the feeding system in real-time.

Key Features of Automation and Control:

• Latest Generation Pneumatic Control: The grinding rollers are automatically engaged and disengaged by an intelligent pneumatic system. This occurs instantaneously the moment the central electronic unit receives a signal from the capacitive sensors regarding the presence or absence of product in the intake hopper.

• Precision Dosing and Distribution: Electronic variable-speed feeding rollers distribute the grain across the entire working length of the main rollers in a perfect, uniform layer. This prevents local overloading and guarantees exceptional particle size uniformity.

• Aerodynamic Support and Aspiration: Air sucked through the pneumatic system’s specialized channels “pulls” the grain particles directly through the grinding zone. This not only increases overall efficiency but also ensures effective cooling of the rollers, preventing thermal damage to the gluten and preserving the baking properties of the flour.

Applications: Industries Utilizing the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV

The Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV is a versatile tool for modern processing plants, regardless of their capacity or specialization:

1. Industrial Flour Mills: The mill is perfectly suited for break and reduction systems in the production of wheat, rye, and pasta flour.

2. Specialized Cereal Processing Plants: Its high power allows for the efficient crushing and flaking of barley, corn, spelt, and oats.

3. Food Laboratories and Experimental Lines: The ability to fine-tune parameters makes the Eagle series essential for developing new product varieties.

The high-precision mechanical roller-gap adjustment system allows operators to set the working gap with micron accuracy. This is critical for the production of semolina, where requirements for granulometric standards are exceptionally strict.

Reliability and Engineering Excellence of the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV

As with all Çift Kartal equipment, the Eagle series is engineered for heavy-duty 24/7 operation. The frame of the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV is constructed from reinforced steel or cast iron, effectively dampening micro-vibrations during high-speed operation. The use of certified European bearing units and modern drive belts minimizes the risk of overheating and emergency shutdowns.

To maintain hygiene and safety within the facility, we strongly recommend connecting the CKEV series to a centralized aspiration system. Utilizing our proprietary Jet Filters ÇKJF will not only eliminate flour dust in the workshop but also maintain a stable temperature regime inside the machine, which positively impacts the longevity of the motors and gearboxes.

FAQ: Understanding the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV

1. What is the main difference between the Eagle series and standard models? The Eagle line features a reinforced frame, premium pneumatic components, and an expanded electronic interface that allows for seamless integration into automated plant systems (SCADA/PLC).

2. How does the electronic system prevent “dry running”? Thanks to capacitive sensors, the Horizontal Roller Mill CKEV “sees” the grain level. If the feed stops, the pneumatics immediately disengage the rollers; when the flow resumes, it smoothly returns them to the working position based on previous settings.

3. Is it difficult to replace the rollers in this model? Çift Kartal designers have provided quick access to the main working units. With specialized removal tools, maintenance time for roller replacement is reduced by 30% compared to previous generations.
