Bakery Equipment
Storage, conveying, milling, mixing, and automation solutions for bakeries and other similar dry bulk solid applications.
Auto-Pulse Bag Dump Stations
In an automated process where silos and bulk bag unloaders are feeding closed conveyors (pneumatics or tubular drag), operators need a way to add extra ingredients to the system. Bag dump stations provide a convenient, safe way to do this. ABM Equipment’s bag dump station has a unique mix of features that eliminate waste and reduce man-hours.
Tubular Drag Conveying Systems
ABM supplies tubular drag conveyors for most non-abraisive, free-flowing products including powders, pellets, and granules. Capacities can vary depending on the configuration and product, but as a reference, tubular drag conveyors reach capacity with milled grain at 2,000 ft. through 24 elbows and conveying at a rate of about 300 pounds per hour.
Bulk Bag Unloaders
We provide bulk bag unloaders (BBUs) for food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and chemical manufacturing systems. There are many configurations available on the market, so whether we source or build them will depend on your needs. The benefits of moving to BBUs (assuming your ingredient demand warrants them) are listed below.
Silos
ABM Equipment provides silo sales and servicefor food, chemical, and nutraceutical applications. ABM Equipment handles process engineering, mechanical engineering, integration, and service for silos, as well as our own custom leak-proof gates. We will design your system, help navigate zoning and seismic requirements, and find creative ways to satisfy or avoid other municiple requirements.
Baghouses
Baghouses, or bag filters, are a type of dust collection system that uses filter bags to capture and remove dust and other particulate matter from industrial processes. These systems are commonly used in a wide range of industries, including cement, mining, power generation, and metal production, to remove particulate matter from the air.
Cartridge Dust Collectors
ABM supplies cartridge dust collectors for applications where 1, granular filtration and easy maintenance are priorities over maintenance cost and 2, where space is limited. Filters can be round or rectangular, and made of natural or synthetic materials depending on the application.
Cyclone Dust Collectors
We employ cyclone dust collectors to remove debris from processes and spaces when volume and maintenance are a priority over precision. We supply cyclones to many manufacturing industries, from food to chemicals and building materials. Household cyclone vacuums (like Dyson) employ this method which is known for low maintenance—no bags or cartridges to change—and long-lasting performance without loss of suction. However, because there is no filter medium, some of the smaller dust particles will escape.
Hammer Mills

BinMaster has a product guide which is useful for comparing methods for level detection, and we’ve provided a summary of the common options below. The recommended supplier for your application, however, will depend on your situation. Browse below or skip the work and send us a message to find your viable options.
Commercial Flour Mill
A sturdy, long-lasting grain mill, the Commercial Flour Mill is the standalone version of the model intended for continuous-operation systems and thus includes more safety features. This heavy duty mill (Grindmaster 950 model) features a strong base, long-lasting shaft and bearings, and was built for high-throughput applications. Aimed at whole grain, whole meal, and grits, these mills are ideal for organic flours as the low temperatures maintained during the grinding process retains and protects the nutrient content of the grain. The Commercial Flour Mill features additional shrouding for operator safety and aesthetics versus standard industrial mills.
Cereal Grain Mill
One of the most versatile commercial mills on the market, the Cereal Grain Mill (model MHA 600D) can be set to gently crack grains or finely mill them to flour. Though suitable for a wide range of products, it is most popular for cereal grains such as wheat, maize, rice, barley, and oats because of the unique control it allows.
As a member of the disc mill class, it uses two spinning discs to precisely reduce particle size. Because the discs can be set as far apart or as close together as needed, it allows processors to strike the balance that can’t be reached with roller or hammer mills. Throughput varies per product, but is capable of up to 4500 lbs/hr.
A micrometer hand wheel allows precise and convenient control, and the discs are easily changed should they wear.
Professional Tabletop Flour Mill
Most popular among grocery stores, bakeries, and farms, the Tabletop Flour Mill is the easiest way for your home or business to enjoy the nutritional and taste benefits of stone disc mills. It can mill any product under 12% moisture and 6% oil (most commonly whole grains, coffee, spices, and grains) at up to 175 lbs. per hour depending on the desired fineness. It comes stock with a 9 lb. hopper and uses stone discs to grind, which preserve nutrients by keeping lower temperatures. If you’re grinding whole, organic grains, this is the best mill on the market. This is a miniature version of the mill used by Bob’s Red Mill. The price as of 10/25 is $4,600, but call or email to confirm pricing at time of purchase.
For larger bakeries, the tabletop mill is also available with a sifter which can be configured for flour, bran, and fine bran. It’s equipped with three separate outlets optimized for their respective flour types. Feel free to call or email us with any questions!
Spice Mill
First produced in 1910 and improved upon ever since, the Spice Mill is also ideal for small batches of grains, peas, and sugar. Mustard, coffee, and other oily products can also be ground efficiently with stones designed to handle the oils.

Universal Mills
Universal Mills, also known as combination mills, use multiple methods and configurations of those methods to deliver the broadest range of capabilities possible. They use turbine blades for a course grinds, a pin-mill configuration for fine grinds, and are compatible with various grinding media to fine-tune results. Both turbine and pin configurations can be utilized when incoming product is very course and outgoing needs to be very fine. It also protects product by using a closed-loop design (to prevent exchange of inside and outside air) and can optionally use low temperatures or inert gases for special cases, detailed under options. It’s compatible with most processing lines via flexible inlet and outlet configurations. The hinged doors allow for easy maintenance and inspection and it can reduce particle size to 100 μm – 20μm. We employ universal mills for applications that need a broad range of particle size reduction. Regardless of brand, ABM will select the right universal for your product and reconfigure it if no solutions is optimal out-of-the-box.
Continuous Commercial Flour Mill
The continuous Commercial Flour Mill (Europemill 600 and 950 mm W) is a horizontal mill designed with triangular shape and is used in in many plants for decentralized production. The Industrial Flour Mill isn’t limited to just flour though – this versatile mill tackles many other applications such as hulling chickpeas and milling cereals, wheat, spices, buckwheat, rye and other grains. Comparable to the Commercial Flour Mill, which is the standalone unit, the continuous model fits in an integrated system with product delivery and takeaway, dust collection, and sifting.
Engineered to retain all natural fibers, vitamins, and minerals during the milling process, the Industrial Flour Mill utilizes traditional stone millstones, making it ideal for health foods. Designed to be placed in continuous production areas, these models can be installed next to one another.
