** Most roller mill accessories can be retrofitted to different makes and models of roller mills. **

Grain Scalpers help remove rocks, cobs, stocks, and other unwanted materials so they do not pass into the rolls. These foreign objects can cause premature roll wear, create out-of-roll position instances, and sometimes even damage the rolls and bearings. Scalpers are a great addition to any grinding process to ensure the mill stays up and running at maximum capacity.

Roller mills perform best when evenly flood fed. RMS’s feedrolls ensure the product is evenly fed across the length of the rolls. When rolls are not consistently and evenly fed, it often leads to poor grind quality, uneven roll wear, and even premature dull rolls. This results in significant capacity loss and cost to your operation.  

One frequently overlooked maintenance aspect of a roller mill is cleaning the magnets.

This task is often forgotten because the magnets are tucked inside the feedroll out of sight. However, when you regularly clean a feedroll magnet, items such as bearings, bolts, nuts, metal shavings, and ferrous objects are kept out of the rolls. This simple action can elongate roll life and improve grind consistency. The Automatic Magnet System performs this necessary task for you, increasing mill longevity and allowing you to focus on other parts of your business.

Bearing Monitoring Systems are great additions to Automatic Greasing Systems. The system provides the peace of mind that the bearings in your roller mill or grinder are running within the proper operating temperatures. Notifications can be set up via email or text message to alert you if the bearings are getting too hot. The system can even be programmed to automatically shut down the roller mill to avoid significant damage and/or prevent a fire.

The Automatic Greasing system keeps your equipment humming at peak performance, removing the inconvenience of manual lubrication. By having an automated system handle this critical part of your maintenance routine, you can eliminate potentially missed lube points and wasted time for re-greasing.  

One of the top causes of downtime for a roller mill is bearing failure. Bearings generally fail because of a lack of grease or incompatible grease. With an Automatic Greasing System, you can be confident that bearings in your machine are getting the correct grease amount and type every time.

Roll Gap & AccuGap® Controls is an ideal solution if:

1. Your application requires multiple grind sizes
2. The roller mill is not located near the control room 
3. You have multiple operators on your team
4. You are looking for repeatable control of your roll positions

Roll Gap Control allows operators to quickly select a preset recipe initiating the roller mill to automatically adjust the gap to the correct position. This option not only speeds up the process of changing grind sizes, but also ensures that each operator does it the same. 

AccuGap® calibrates the rolls to ensure they are parallel and zeroed to each other. The roll gap on a roller mill is oftentimes set within thousands of an inch, so this critical calibration must be done correctly and consistently. AccuGap® can take the guesswork out of calibrating the rolls.

Through our years of designing, building, and servicing roller mills, we have collected more than a few tricks of the trade. We know what these systems require to succeed, and RMS’s Roller Mill Controls can provide you with the confidence that your roller mill is correctly set up for optimal performance. 

Our user-friendly controls also make the machines easy to navigate. Even better, if your mill is connected to the internet, our experts can remotely log in and see what you see. This allows us to provide immediate support and troubleshooting assistance, saving you from costly downtime.
