igh food and operating safety as well as low maintenance: Bühler’s Diorit four or eight roller mill consistently and safely grinds a variety of grains. The Diorit MDDY-600/250 four-roller mill is now also available in a longitudinally split version. Bühler’s Diorit MDDY/MDDZ four or eight-roller mill has proven itself since its market launch in 2017. Thanks to its robust design, reliable grinding and exemplary hygiene, the Diorit is now well-established on the market as a cost-effective yet extremely powerful grinding solution. With the Diorit roller mill, wheat, corn, rye, barley, spelt and other types of grain can be reliably ground with high consistency. Since it was first introduced, over 1,500 Diorit roller mills have been sold and are used throughout the world.
Diorit 2019
Last year, Bühler made further improvements to the Diorit, particularly in terms of its user-friendliness. The most obvious innovation of the new Diorit 2019 generation is its completely revised control system. The user interface has been fully overhauled and re-designed, and now facilitates intuitive and simple monitoring and control of the roller mill. However, operation of the 2019 generation Diorit mill is not only possible via its newly designed touch screen control panel; the web server integrated into the new machine controls also allows remote operation. 52 | July 2020 - Milling and Grain
So, thanks to the wireless network, the Diorit roller mill can be operated via smartphone, tablet or PC. This means that the touch screen control system is no longer necessary on the roller mill, but is available on request as an option. Another innovative feature on the Diorit 2019 roller mill is the grinding chamber that has been enlarged by 30mm. This gives the Diorit operator more room for sampling.
Diorit four-roller mill with a longitudinally split design
The Diorit 2019 is available as a four or eight-roller mill in a total of nine different models. The Diorit MDDY-600/250 fourroller mill is now available in three different versions, offering the flexibility to choose between two and four milling passages. The standard version of the Diorit four-roller mill with a roller length of 600mm enables two milling passages. The new, longitudinally split version is available for one side (L1) or for both sides (L2). On the model with one side split (L1), one side of the roller mill is split into two passages of 300mm each. This enables the four-roller mill to grind three milling passages at the same time. On the version with two sides split (L2), both sides of the roller mill are split into two 300mm passages each. The Diorit MDDY-600/250/L2 four-roller mill thus has a total of four milling passages. On the side of the roller mill that is split longitudinally, the inlet, feeder and control system are split in two. This means that the grinding properties can be controlled individually for each passage. The MDDY-600/250 four-roller mill with rollers split longitudinally is the ideal solution for small mills and school
