Optimal preparation of your input materials

Hammer mills for Breweries and Distrilleries

Ethanolflasche

The production of ethanol is a demanding process for distilleries. Ethanol producers are therefore dependent on the safe and reliable operation of the crushing process at the beginning of the entire production process. The production of ethanol is traditionally carried out through the fermentation of sugar or starch. Fruits or crops are used for this purpose. Ethanol extracted from straw is also becoming an increasingly interesting option worldwide. Excellent grain structures with high throughput rates and availability are a precondition for highly competitive ethanol and alcohol production. With our hammer mills we optimally prepare the input materials for your ethanol and alcohol production and deliver reliable capacity and quality commitments for our crushing. Take advantage of our experience in natural and artificial fermentation lines.

60 years of expertise

Best equipment for breweries & distilleries

We have been building hammer mills since 1959 and supply our customers with tailor-made systems:  Our grain hammer mills are well established in the production of

  • bio-ethanol
  • drinking alcohol
  • in the brewing and distilling industry

Our hammer mills are robust universal machines for small to medium throughput volumes. They are suitable for coarse and fine grinding as well as wet and dry treatment.

The VDK high-speed mill is one of the most successful machines for the production of ethanol and alcohol. It is a robust hammer mill for medium throughputs. The screen is made of two parts and can be changed without using any tools when the machine is at a standstill.  The VDK high-speed mill is capable of processing all cereals, oil fruits, starch plants and their by-products, individually or in the form of recipes.

Our feeders

A grinding plant can only operate efficiently if material is fed in at the optimal rate and is appropriately dosed.

The AGS air-gravity separator is well suited for the continuous separation of foreign bodies from bulk materials.
