In a very basic term, a pulverizer is used to grind to powder or dust or in a very simpler and fine substance.
What is Pulverizer?
It is used for breaking down the hard and bigger substances into fine and smaller ones using the various inside machines of a big pulverizer machine. Here in this article, you will see the role of pulverizer in the food industry and how pulverization makes it so easy to have food that is finely grinned with the help of a pulverizer. This cannot be used only for one crop or material. You can grind a variety of food materials which are their raw form and which are ready to have grinned.
There are so many types of pulverizer machines responsible for different purposes. You cannot grind wheat or rice or maize or millet in the grinder used for coriander, clove, or cinnamon. Different machines of pulverizer play different roles.
How Does The Pulverizer work In General?
It is very important to understand the mechanism of the pulverizer. The machines are logically driven that every bit of grinding and collecting can be specifically done through that. There is basically a cylindrical hollow through which you can add hard materials inside, the inside, invisible grinder, crushes the materials into a very soft and fine material. The fine material is later collected from the other side in a container.
The machine is generally made of very hard stainless steel to prevent it from rusting and destroying not only the machine but also the food material. The motor is inside the grinder to make it grind. There is no residue left inside the motor, the technology is designed in such a way that it differentiates the fine powder and the residue in different containers.
What Are The Uses Of Pulverizer In Food Industry?
There are so many food materials that cannot be eaten or prepared without being crushed or grinned. And for such purposes pulverizer is used. So, the question is what type of pulverizers are used in the food industry? There are few types of the same.
In general terms, the first one is used to grind wheat, rice, maize, millets, or such bases and the other one is used to grind coriander, clove, turmeric, chilly basically the spices which are used in a very less quantity.
Let’s understand with an example if a person named ‘X’ wants to have chapati and vegetable and she/he has raw wheat and spices. The person, X will go for two purposes, one for wheat grinding and the other for spice grinding. The work is almost the same but the way is slightly different.
Each and every machine has different intensity on which it works, it takes different amount of electricity and power. Some need more and some need quite less depending upon the quality and nature of the raw materials. It requires an amount of knowledge to operate the basic fundamentals of the pulverizer machine used for wheat or spice.
What Is The General Cost Of Pulverizer Used?
There are different types of pulverizers as discussed above. And depending upon the quality and feature of any pulverizer, the cost of the same is decided. The following are the different types of pulverizers:
- Automatic chilly pulverizer costs around 50 to 60 thousand.
- Some spice pulverizer costs around 30 thousand.
- Wheat and rice pulverizer cost around 70 to 80 thousand which is of good quality.
- Food gravy pulverizer costs 10 to 30 thousand for better consistency of gravy of the dish.
Depending upon the uses and variety of the materials, you can decide to choose the pulverizer of your choice.
The mechanism is not very hard to follow, the cost of machines is not very high. This could be a nice idea to invest in this.
