SKIOLD Disc mills are based on award-winning technology, proven through the thousands of machines in operation worldwide since their launch in 2000. This grinding equipment is essential in feed production for livestock, particularly poultry and pigs, but also cattle and other ruminants. It's designed to mill various raw materials, including dry grains, pulses, and pellets up to 12mm in diameter. One of the key advantages of SKIOLD Disc mills is the ability to vary the grinding degree during operation, thereby optimizing feed structure for different animal groups

Design

The grinding process in a SKIOLD disc mill occurs between two discs, one stationary and one rotating. These discs are fitted with segments made of tungsten carbide, a very hard material also used in cutting tools. The raw material is distributed by the inlet ring, then finely ground between the discs. The distance between the discs can be adjusted manually or automatically during operation to achieve the desired particle size and feed structure for different animal groups.

For the milling of dry grains, pellets and pulses.
Four models available: SK2500 / SK5000 / SK10T / SK780.
Available in different motor sizes.
Capacity 2 to 30 tonnes per hour (dry wheat or maize).
Variable disc gap for flexible grist size.
Can be controlled automatically.
Low power use per tonne milled.

Applications

Animal Feed Production: Optimizing feed structure for poultry, pigs, and cattle.
Suitable for Various Grains: Wheat, barley, maize, oats, peas, and other grains.
Pellet Processing: Can process clean feed pellets up to 12mm in diameter.
Compact Design: Allows easy incorporation into new or existing feed processing plants.
Initial Size Reduction: Can be used for the initial size reduction of raw materials.
Versatile Systems: Suitable for both continuous feed processing and batch mixing systems.

Advantages

Adjustable Grinding Degree: Allows for the production of feed with optimal particle size for different animal needs, either manually or automatically.
Exceptional Durability: The tungsten carbide discs have a long lifespan, capable of grinding thousands of tonnes of grain before requiring replacement. They are significantly harder than traditional hammer mill hammers.
Low Power Consumption: Designed to be energy-efficient, typically using less power per tonne of ground material compared to hammer mills.
Low Noise Level: Operates at a lower noise level compared to traditional hammer mills.
Minimal Dust Emission: The grinding process occurs without air ventilation, reducing dust in the working environment.
Compact Design: Easy to integrate into existing or new feed mill layouts.
High Capacity: Depending on the model, can achieve capacities ranging from 1,000 to 30,000 kg/hour for wheat.
Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of raw materials and grinding requirements.
Low Maintenance: Fewer wearing parts compared to some other milling technologies, reducing maintenance needs.
Direct Motor Drive: The motor is often mounted directly on the rotating disc, ensuring efficient power transfer to the grinding process.
