Container Mill: The Amazing Maize Master MM3500
The revolutionary MM3500 container mill by Maize Master is specifically developed to serve communities in Africa and offer them a high-quality super maize meal at more affordable prices.
A New Era in Turnkey Milling!
‘When we started Maize Master in 1988 we had one goal that remains true today – to see African farmers add value to their crops by using our milling equipment. What followed was the first small commercial roller mill in the world and we have gone from strength to strength. Today, the company boasts a range of milling equipment that is distributed around the globe.’ Andries Greyling, Founder of Maize Master
Africa is considered a continent filled with opportunity for entrepreneurs that are willing to address a specific need. Maize meal is in demand in Africa as it serves as the staple food for many families throughout Sub-Saharan Africa.
With an input of 3.5MT/h or 80MT/day, the MM3500 offers a ‘business-in-a-box’ solution to both communities and entrepreneurs alike. Extraction rates up to 76% have been achieved in production environments. The specially designed containerised mill makes it easy to ship anywhere in Africa using any freight courier specialising in moving containers.
The MM3500 is unique in its small footprint (only 18 m2) and the plug-and-play approach makes it possible to be installed anywhere. It can be operational within a week without the need to construct any specialised building. The option of using a generator or a three-phase power input supply provides flexibility for different locations. A water supply is only required to dampen the maize during the determination process. The quick installation and easy shipping aspects further enable the mill to be relocated elsewhere should it be necessary.
Furthermore, the two stacked container mill is very easy to operate and maintain, and because of this feature, no previous milling experience is required, only a mechanical background. This reduces the learning curve for the operators tremendously.
Even though the mill is compact it comes with all the necessary parts to produce high-quality maize meal.
