Abstract
Flour is a powder made by grinding cereal grains or other seeds with the help of grinding wheels. Flourmill is a machine used to break solid grains into smaller pieces. Milling of flour is accomplished by grinding grains between revolving stone or steel wheel which rotates over a stationary wheel vertically or horizontally. The aim of the paper is to present a conceptual CONICAL shaped grinding wheel, comparatively with more efficient than the conventional grinding wheels. In conventional flourmill, the flat surfaced or circular disc type wheels are held vertically or horizontally in order to make the grains in to powder, there are two wheels one is stationary and another is rotating and movable. The shaft is coupled to the rotating and movable wheel which is driven by the motor. In conical flourmill, the two wheels of conical shape are held together in order to make the grains in to powder. In this type two conical shaped grinding stones are used, one is non-rotating movable and another is rotating non-movable, the stones are held vertically, the rotating non-movable wheel is coupled with the motor. With these modifications the advantages of conical flourmill over conventional flourmill are found to be load can be varied easily, less power consumption, efficiency is high and increased contact surface area
