CLASS-LEADING EXTRACTION RATES

R-40 Maize Mill

Roff brings you the R-40 Maize Mill range, boasting the same best-in-class extraction rates delivered by the R-70 and C-80 Mills. We’ve designed the R-40 for the entrepreneur who needs a streamlined, profitable and reliable mill based on proven technology with the flexibility to never miss a new market opportunity. Think compact, efficient design housed in multi-story frames featuring dust extraction and an offal collection line, and a milling capacity that will enable you to achieve success.

Extraction rates

The R-40 Maize Milling Plant is built using proven equipment (MK-6 platform), guaranteeing exceptional performance. It achieves an extraction rate* of about 69 to 74% (Super/Grade 1), or 80 to 85% for special maize meal (refined) – allowing you to produce and/or export both these products with ease**.

Save on civil costs and turnaround time with the R-40

The R-40 mill range has a small footprint between 117m² and 137m². It comes with a support structure, so no special structure or building is required.

What our clients say

The product that we are getting out of the R-70 is a phenomenal product that speaks for itself. We are competing with products made with European machinery and our customers are still buying our product. The R-70 is a winner in our book – we started off with one, today we own five of these machines.

The Roff machine is what gives us an edge in the market. It gives us exactly what the customer wants.

Evans Killy

We chose a company close enough to us so that we could do research and development work together. We recognise Roff as a strategic partner that supplies the high quality equipment, support and R&D work whenever we want to do something new. It’s a successful partnership in our opinion.

Awie Griesel

Managing Director: Cereal & Malt, Johannesburg, Gauteng Province, South Africa

Awie Griesel

I bought the Roff R-70 Mill because of Roff’s trusted reputation in the industry. When you buy a mill, you can import one which is risky, so I decided to rather choose a local company with the view of building a longstanding relationship with them.
