Oilseed cracking solution
Maximize throughput with precision cracking, ensuring optimal downstream processing for oilseed production and biomass applications.

Processes Oilseeds and Grains into Meal and Pellets
The 1200 Series Cracking Mill from CPM is engineered for oilseed processing and grain milling applications, providing a robust solution for transforming oilseeds into meal and pellets efficiently. Its unique design features load-centering bearing supports and replaceable bearing slides, ensuring consistent operation. The mill’s chilled iron rolls and adjustable roll corrugation accommodate diverse production needs, from animal feed to biofuels. With a soybean capacity of up to 1,000 metric tons per day and horsepower options ranging from 15 to 125 HP, this mill is tailor-made for continuous, high-volume operations. Integrated with industrial-duty adjustable motor platforms and optional feeders, the mill offers seamless automation and integration into existing systems. Enhanced operational efficiency is achieved through a separate inner-roll drive and V-belt drive systems. Maintenance is streamlined with self-aligning bearings and optional heavy-duty magnets for easy cleaning. The 1200 Series is customizable to match your unique production requirements, ensuring optimal performance in demanding industrial environments.
