6FTDP 40–60 t/d Flour Plant
Purifier, bran finisher and three simultaneous flour grades.
- 60+ years manufacturing
- 10–500 t/d capacity range
- 100+ patents
- Turnkey commissioning
Overview
What this plant actually is
At 40 t/d the flow sheet crosses a threshold: a purifier enters the process, which means you are now separating endosperm by quality rather than just by particle size. The plant can hold three flour grades in production at once — special first grade, special second grade and standard — and skims wheat core flour off the top.
High-square plansifter + purifier + bran brusher
Simultaneous 3-grade production with core-flour extraction
3B4M1S (40 t/d) and 4B5M1S1T (60 t/d) flow sheets
Single-pair or compound (pneumatic) roll variants
Standard models and parameters
All figures are nominal at 380 V / 50 Hz with wheat at 12.5% incoming moisture and 76% extraction. Deviations of ±8% are normal and depend on wheat hardness, roll condition and operator settings.
| Model | Capacity | Power / consumption | Weight / footprint | Configuration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6FTDP-40 | 40 t/d | 100 kW | — 18 × 8 × 8 m | 6F2240/8 mills, 1 six-bin high square sifter, 83-type check sifter, 3B4M1S |
| 6FTDP-60 (single) | 60 t/d | 150 kW | — 24 × 8 × 8 m | 2240/12 mills, 2 four-bin high square sifters, 4B5M1S1T, double 1B |
| 6FTDP-60 (compound) | 60 t/d | 150 kW | — 24 × 8 × 8 m | Pneumatic compound rolls, same flow sheet, lower operator load |
Process flow
- 1 Intake
- 2 Two screens
- 3 Two scourers
- 4 Two destoners
- 5 Tempering
- 6 4B5M1S1T milling
- 7 High square plansifter
- 8 Purifier

- 10 Three-grade packing
How to select
The 60 t/d compound-roll version is worth the premium if you plan to run two shifts — pneumatic roll engagement removes the single most common operator error, which is inconsistent manual roll pressure between shifts.
Typical applications
- National flour brands
- Bakery and noodle industrial supply
- Export milling contracts
- Multi-grade retail portfolios

Answers
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to the questions engineers and mill owners actually ask us during plant sizing. If your case is not covered, send the wheat specification and your target tonnage.
Ask an engineer →- What does the purifier actually do?
- It stratifies middlings on a vibrating sieve with an air stream, separating pure endosperm chunks from bran-contaminated particles of the same size. Without a purifier you cannot make a genuinely low-ash patent flour.
- Why two 1B passages at 60 t/d?
- Doubling the first break lets you run gentler roll settings on each pass, which produces fewer fine bran particles. Fine bran is the main source of ash in the patent stream.
- Is a tower necessary?
- At 60 t/d, yes — a 4–5 storey structure or a steel frame with the sifters on the top floor. Gravity flow is still cheaper to operate than pneumatic lifting at this scale.
