 Flour Mill 

The technologies such as water mill and flour mill are traditional technology

technologies. They are described below in short.

A mill that uses, Power Produced by using Water to run machineryis called water Mill

Each technology gets developed after completing a certain process. The development of technology is associated with the development of human civilization. The technology of grinding with Lohoro (pestle) and Silauto (a flat stone) turned into a Janto (grinding stone) later on. Then this technology developed as water mill and flour mill. The grinding stone (a small slab of stone) or water mill uses water as a fuel. For this, a canal is dug from a river or a sea, and water is taken through it to a certain distance. Water is collected in a pond by blocking the canal in a place where there is a shortage of water. A pipe is used and the water is let to fall like a waterfall.

The falling water hits the wheel and produces motion in the wheel. This is called rotating motion. The bevel gear is joined to its axle. When the wheel rotates, the bevel gear produces the force of 90. This gear helps to spin the upper part round. The axle is fitted to the spinning motion of upper gear and this speed is directly attached with the grinding stone. This moves the grinding stone.

The axle rotates when the wooden wheel moves. When the axle rotates.

gear rotates as well. The gear is joined to the other gear. The axle attached

to the other gear is joined to the grinding stone and it starts to rotate. This h

helps in grinding the grains like maize, millet, soybean and pulses.
