20 NEWS MILLER / SEPTEMBER 2019 Bühler revolutionizes industrial milling with Mill E3 For decades industrial milling concepts have focused on optimizing machines and processes, but the basic design concept remained the same, based on buildings with a minimum of five to six floors. With the complete- ly new approach of the Mill E3, Bühler now optimizes the entire arrangement and construction concept. At the Networking Days 2019, Bühler shows that it is possible to build flour mills with latest technology more cost-ef- fectively, install them quicker, and operate them with less impact on the environment. Shorter installation time, faster commissioning, smaller building Mill E3 stands for advantages on three efficiency lev- els: space, time, and energy. In the optimal case a Mill E3 building can be 30% smaller in volume than a tradition- al mill of the same size. The construction of the Mill E3 building not only locks up less capital, it is also completed more quickly. By using pre-assembled modules, Mill E3 is installed 30% faster than conventional flour mills. “It’s basically a plug-and-play mill,” says Stefan Birrer, Head of Business Area Milling Solutions. This means Bühler cus- tomers can set up their Mill E3s more quickly and start generating revenues faster. It significantly reduces infra- structure cost, construction time and complexity. Up to ten percent less energy With the same output, Mill E3 reduces energy consump- It is a completely new approach to the plant, processes, and machinery of industrial mills. With Mill E3, Bühler revolutionizes the milling industry and sets new standards in cost-effective building investment, project realisation time, and energy consumption. “After the introduction of automation 40 years ago, Mill E3 is the next big step forward in milling,” says Johannes Wick, CEO of Grains & Food at Bühler Group. Mill E3 can be built on three floors
