Latest Developments from WASUFI® Flaking Roll Maintenance device for increasing Oil Yield within Oilseed Preparation

The WASUFI^® maintenance device for Flaking rolls within the oilseed preparation is the most innovative product. It significantly enhances the maintenance process, the roll surface and tolerance and last but not least consequently the oil yield.

The result of intensive research and development and real operation with customers is shown in the state of the art WASUFI^® maintenance machine.

Let’s start with the main function of the WASUFI^®: on-site maintenance of flaking rolls by means of special turning. This feature has revolutionized the way flaking rolls are maintained and is already in use in many oil mills very successfully.

Through the special turning process, the duration of the maintenance process has shortened drastically and the stock removal on the roll surface can be done at once. The WASUFI® is also a clean working tool, as an extraction hood is used to extract the chips, unlike when sanding. No sparks or dust are produced due to the cooling system. Thanks to the extremely stable and heavy duty carrier beam, it absorbs the forces against the rotating roll.

Huge time and cost savings result in more profit for the oil mill. The modern technology used with the WASUFI® allows for the highest precision and tolerances, which improves the quality and uniformness of the flakes.

The automatic control developed for the WASUFI® independently aligns itself to the roll shape including the end relief and chamfer.

In summary, the WASUFI® simplifies the maintenance process of flaking rolls and makes it much more efficient. The improved quality of the maintained rolls, reduced maintenance times, and minimal downtime lead to a rapid amortization of the investment. The WASUFI® is thus a valuable tool in the world of oilseed processing that increases the profit with improved oil yields quickly.
