Our Story
The Pan Mill was designed by a South African, Brian Mc Grath.
The idea of the machine was born out of the need to farm in a simpler way. Grinding food for his farm animals has become a demanding task. The hammer mill that was available then, was not suitable for the small farmer. He then used his initiative and inventiveness to develop a simpler, cost-effective electric or petrol machine.
After 2 years of playing with different designs, blades and screens, he was finally able to build this effective machine. It is designed for production efficiency and to operate with the minimum manpower. It is ideal to grind just the right amount of food for your animals.
The Pan Mill 3000 was the first machine and underwent the most change over the years. It changed shape, car changed. Even the color changed from blue and yellow to only yellow. The color change is brought about so that dust does not show up so easily on the machine. Recently the name was changed from the models from PlaasJapie to Pan Mill 3000 and from Landman to Pan Mill 4000. After much demand for a larger machine for the larger farm, the three phase model was enlarged and is now called the Pan Mill 5000.
