Technology

With an annual capacity of 70000 mts, this robust milling line is designed to handle hard, low fibre spice like Fenugreek, Turmeric, and Ginger. Often these particularly hard spices are ground to desired mesh sizes on a single pass. The product temperatures are monitored throughout to ensure that volatile oils and flavors are maintained. Raw Materials like Turmeric and Ginger are often hand sorted to ensure that only pure, stone-free products are ground after. However, Fenugreek is cleaned prior to milling with the help of the Cleaning Line. There is a blender at the end of the line to homogenize the product or for making special blends.

Fulfilling the annual capacity of 6000mts, Milling Line 2 is dedicated to chillies, spice seeds and blends. This is a Buhler Mill with a dedicated chilli processing line. Mechanical cleaning using sifting, air classification and hand sorting are implied to ensure that chillies are of finest quality prior to milling. The end products are then homogenized post milling and sifting in water chilled blenders, to ensure packaging at room temperature. These final products are then packed in a dedicated clean room with high air flows to ensure a good, healthy and safe working environment for all employees.

Our Milling Line 3, also known as the “Monster Mill Project” is an example of one of the largest spice mills in the country with a production capacity of more than 2000 kgs per hour for some products and an annual capacity of approximately 17,500 mts.

A dedicated 10 ton silo to this mill ensures that the feeding is constant. The silo is fed from a feeding plant, the roasters or other milling lines. The intake hopper is mounted on load cells so that the spice blends can be made repeatedly, ensuring consistent perfection in every blend. There are 2 water chilled blenders in parallel from this line in order to ensure cooling of product and proper blending prior to discharge into the packing machine and automatically packed into bags from 25 Kgs to 1000 Kgs.
