Ken is the REAL expert.  I've played with one, and have a little hands- 
on experience.  I've described the function on my web page, http://engines.rustyiron.com/stable/greatwesternrollermill.html 
    There are some other pictures of the unit in operation at, http://engines.rustyiron.com/losalamitos06

We've tried using the roller mill for corn, but it didn't work out  
well.  The flour would cake onto the rollers, making them bigger and  
bigger until everything jammed up and the belts would slip.
