There are several main reasons why flour mill equipment is idled prior to production: 1. Check equipment health: Idling can help check that various parts of the equipment are functioning properly. By observing the noise, vibration, temperature, and other indicators when the equipment is running, it can be judged whether there is a fault or abnormality in the equipment, so as to repair or replace parts in time to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. 2. Check the sealing performance of the equipment: When idling, you can check whether the sealing performance of the equipment is good to prevent material leakage or pollution. Especially in flour processing, sealing properties are essential to maintain the hygiene and quality of the finished product. 3. Preheating equipment: before the official production, the equipment can be preheated to a suitable temperature by idling. For some equipment that needs to be heated, such as dryers or ovens, preheating can improve the heat transfer efficiency of the equipment and reduce energy consumption in the initial stage of production. 4. Cleaning equipment: When idling, the dust, impurities, or residues inside the equipment can be removed to ensure product hygiene and quality. Especially in the food industry, keeping equipment clean and hygienic is one of the important measures to prevent food cross-contamination. To sum up, through idling operation before production, the normal operation of flour mill equipment, efficient work, and product quality can be guaranteed.
