Short answer: the machines of an 18–36 TPD wheat mill fit in about 18 × 6 m; a 62 TPD mill in about 26 × 8 m; 82–120 TPD mills in about 20–30 × 6–8 m, 7.5–14.5 m high. The building needs extra room around that for wheat intake, storage, packing and loading.
Length × width × height of the area the machines occupy, from complete wheat mills built to standard layouts.
| Capacity | Machinery area L × W × H | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 18 TPD | 18 × 6 × 4–6 m | Compact steel frame, fits a low warehouse |
| 26–36 TPD | 18 × 6 × 8 m | Two-level steel frame |
| 62 TPD | 26 × 8 × 7.5–8 m | Steel platform |
| 82 TPD | 20–30 × 6–8 × 7.5–12 m | Four reference layouts: long and low, or short and tall |
| 100 TPD | 23–30 × 6–8 × 7.5–14.5 m | Steel platform or multi-level |
| 112 TPD | 22 × 8 × 9–10 m | Multi-level |
| 120 TPD | 28 × 8 × 12–14.5 m | Multi-level |
| 150–500 TPD | Designed for the site | Send the site plan |
Select the model by material, throughput and installation requirements.
Many mills go into an existing warehouse. Send the length, width, clear height under the roof beams and a few photos. We draw the layout to fit, and tell you if the height is too low for the capacity you want.
For a new building, we give you the machinery area and the plant layout drawings, so your civil engineer can design the structure. Civil works are not part of our scope.
The machines of reference 100 TPD wheat mills occupy about 23–30 m by 6–8 m, 7.5–14.5 m high. Add room for wheat intake, storage, packing and loading around that.
Often yes. A long, low layout on a steel platform fits many warehouses. Send the length, width and clear height, and we check it.
From about 4–6 m for an 18 TPD compact mill to 12–14.5 m for a multi-level 100–120 TPD mill. A lower building is possible with a longer layout.
No. Civil works and the building are not in our scope. We supply the layout drawings and the machinery area for your civil engineer.
