Oat Flaking Mill for Food Processing | Multi-Grain | Bellaex

Applications: Bellaex FO Series oat flaking mills can be used in food-grade cereal processing (instant oatmeal, granola, muesli, cereal flakes), integrated grain-processing lines, bakery/snack ingredient preparation, and pre-toasting or pre-cooking stages.

Materials: Bellaex FO Series oat flaking mills can process corn (dehulled, degermed), black beans, red beans, soybeans, oats, barley, quinoa, puffed corn, and black rice.

Standard configuration (flaking mill): high Ni-Cr-Mo alloy rolls, hardness HS 75 ±3, dynamically balanced (verification provided). Optional IRLE ORT or Yenar rolls are available.

Gentle flaking for intact oat groats and ultra-low fines

Models from 0.5–3TPH (grain); scalable for larger capacities

True continuous 24/7 industrial duty

Steam/water-managed roll temperature

Quick, repeatable roll-gap control

Food-grade design

The Bellaex grain flaking mill incorporates spring-loaded scrapers that continuously remove residual material from the roll surfaces—since steamed oats are prone to build-up and sticking—ensuring clean roll surfaces and consistent performance.

Core advantages

• Keeps roll surfaces clean for uniform thickness and low fines
• Tool-less, on-the-fly adjustment shortens sanitation windows
• Minimizes manual intervention and unplanned stops
• Protects roll finish to extend re-grind intervals

The Bellaex grain flaking mill uses square-section bearing housings paired with a heavy-duty base to maximize structural rigidity and load-bearing stability, keeping the flaking rolls precisely aligned over long-term operation. Its welded structural-steel frame is stress-relieved (annealed) after fabrication to enhance dimensional stability and provide effective vibration damping.

Core advantages

• Holds parallelism to reduce thickness drift across the roll face
• Lowers vibration for quieter, smoother operation
• Extends bearing and roll service life
• Preserves flake quality at higher line rates

The Bellaex grain flaking mill employs an engineered feed module—an SEW-driven, VFD-controlled feed roll combined with a hydraulic feed gate—to build a uniform bed in the roll gap, ensuring stable, repeatable flaking performance.

Core advantages

• Continuous, surge-free flow for uniform flakes and fewer fines
• Quick capacity tuning via VFD and gate opening, without stopping
• Handles recipe/moisture changes typical of steamed groats
• Stabilizes motor load and reduces energy spikes

The Bellaex grain flaking mill is equipped with a high-intensity magnetic separator (magnetic strength up to 10,000 gauss) to remove metallic impurities, while the adjustable feed gate regulates throughput to match roll-load requirements.

Core advantages

• Prevents roll chips and costly crash events
• Improves uptime and protects downstream equipment
• Stabilizes product quality by holding steady bed depth
• Lowers cost per ton by reducing rework and scrap

The Bellaex grain flaking mill uses our in-house-developed closed-loop hydraulic system to clamp the rolls and enable precise online gap adjustment—either manually or automatically via PLC—so the target flake thickness is maintained without stopping the line.

Core advantages

• Repeatable flake thickness with excellent cross-machine uniformity
• Faster changeovers with recipe presets and digital readouts
• Accumulator logic reduces pump run time, heat, and energy use
• Integrated safety interlocks for simpler, safer operation

• 10,000-gauss inlet magnet.
• Premium bearing package (SKF).
• IE3/IE4 high-efficiency drives.
• Siemens main motors.
• Centralized automatic lubrication.
• Bearing temperature monitoring.
• VFD control for feeder motor (SEW).
• Stainless upgrade for additional non-contact parts.
• HMI screen upgrade with recipe presets.

• Main flaker body: roll assembly, SS304 housing, scraper set, leak-proof baffles.
• Double main drive motors with belts, pulleys and motor base.
• PLC hydraulic pump station (tightening & pressure system).
• Feeding motor (SEW) and feeder mechanism.

A front-mounted high-pressure hydraulic gap control (patented) locks the rolls and enables precise, repeatable online adjustment. High Ni-Cr-Mo alloy rolls (25–30 mm chill, HS 75 ±3) are dynamically balanced, while rigid square bearing housings and a VFD-controlled feed module maintain bed stability. The self-cleaning scrapers prevent build-up so thickness stays consistent across the roll face.

Yes. All product-contact parts are SS304, the machine uses a fully enclosed design to contain steam and dust, and large clean-access doors speed sanitation. Optional features such as a 10,000-gauss magnet support HACCP and allergen-control programs.

In addition to oat groats, the FO Series handles corn (dehulled & degermed), soybeans, black/red beans, barley, quinoa, puffed corn, and black rice. Conditioning (steam/water and tempering) should match the specific material to achieve target density and fines levels.

Standard supply includes the main flaker body (roll assembly, SS304 housing, scrapers, leak-proof baffles), dual main motors with belts/pulleys, PLC hydraulic pump station, and SEW-driven feeder. Popular options: SKF premium bearings, IE3/IE4 drives, Siemens motors, centralized lubrication, bearing temperature monitoring, VFD for feeder, HMI/recipe presets, and stainless upgrades for additional non-contact parts.
