Laidig is a global leader in designing and manufacturing reclaim systems that automate the unloading of "difficult-to-flow" dry bulk materials.
Flour millers are often faced with significant issues when storing and reclaiming their product, including bridging, product infestations, channel flow, and employee safety. These are the exact problems Laidig has spent more than 60 years solving.
Our unique machines can handle tricky materials that flour millers deal with on a daily basis, including wheat middlings and bran. Laidig's technology enables millers to spend less time on loadout and less money on labor costs, while protecting their important material.
Project Spotlight: "No Other Solution" — Laidig Partners with Milling Company in Mexico
"When the team at Harinas Elizondo saw a huge surge in demand for their products, they knew they would have to find a solution to expand — and fast. They bought an old flour mill, but knew they would have to make significant equipment upgrades to keep the flour and bran moving efficiently. Because of a partnership at another Harinas Elizondo facility around 10 years ago, company leadership already knew where to turn: Laidig."
Which System is Right for You?
There are several different systems we can custom-design for you depending on the nuances of your material and storage specifications. Learn about our unique systems for the Flour Milling industry here:
Cone-Bottom
Our Cone-Bottom systems provide fully automated reclaim of materials with moderate-to-poor flow characteristics. It offers unique access to all serviceable equipment, allowing for zero-entry maintenance even in a full silo. Systems can be designed for 30, 40, 45, and 60-degree hoppers.
Cantilever
The Cantilever storage and reclaim systems are designed to accommodate a wide range of material applications in flat-bottom vertical storage structures. Laidig’s Cantilevers are either hydraulically or electrically driven and may be designed with single or dual augers, depending upon the application.
Track-Drive
The heavy-duty Track-Drive reclaim systems are designed for automated, continuous operation under the most challenging conditions. When higher-volume delivery is required, or when handling materials with poor flow characteristics, track-driven reclaim systems are often the optimal solution.
