Why gear the motor down to 540 rpm then turn around and belt the rpms back up to 3600 or so for the mill? There would be a loss of approx 15% stepping down then stepping up again. If on single phase power it would require one 3600rpm 16HP Baldor direct coupled to the mill. Plus a 2nd 5-10HP motor with a reduction drive to spin the mixer and unloader sections. A shaft speed of 540rpm would not be required, 100-200rpm would be lots. It"s not a foolish idea by any means. If your farm is on 3 phase power then you are in a very prcatical situation.
