Oilseed flaking and milling system
Optimize your oilseed processing with a flaking system that enhances extraction efficiency and product consistency, integrating seamlessly into continuous production lines for high-quality oil and protein products.

Flakes Oilseeds for Efficient Oil Extraction
The Flaking Mill DOQB from Bühler is engineered to enhance oilseed processing with precision flake preparation for improved oil extraction. By employing centrifugal casting, this mill ensures robust rollers that deliver uniform flakes, crucial for maximizing oil yield and quality. Suitable for processing soybeans, sunflower seeds, and more, it integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, offering optimal preparation for oils like canola, corn, and soybean. With a focus on longevity and efficiency, the DOQB features uniform roller feeding and patented roller end seals, reducing maintenance and ensuring a consistent throughput. The system is automated with precision controls, facilitating quick setup and feeder gap adjustments, while strong hinge-mounted magnets safeguard against ferrous contaminants. Its energy-efficient design mitigates vibrations and noise, creating a harmonious production environment. Customization options and engineering support align the DOQB’s operation with specific plant requirements, ensuring compliance with stringent hygiene and production standards.
