Corn Flakes Processing Machine

Corn flakes are delicious food made up of corns. They are prepared by mixing sugar and vitamins thereby enhancing their nutritional value. The corn dough is rolled and toasted to prepare flakes. The corn flakes are one of the most popular meal that is served along with milk on the breakfast table.

Process
The corns are milled to produce flaking sized grits. The malted barley is added to enhance the taste of the corn flakes. The grits are softened by heating them in a pressure cooker. The grits are transported to the large driers through pipes. The moisture contents of the grits are removed by drier. The milling of grit is done through two heavy rollers. One roller moves faster than the other. The pressure applied by the rollers elongates the flakes. The flakes are then toasted in big cylindrical oven. The air of the oven is heated by a gas flames. The cylindrical oven is tilted to a certain angle so that the flakes whirl around. After the toasting is over the flakes are spread with vitamins and minerals to make them as nutritious as possible. The packaging of corn flakes is done through vacuum packaging machine.
