Application: process the raw material in animal feed mill plants
This hammer mill has an electric motor and is suitable for corn, soybean, wheat, and grain grinding. Especially suitable for the pulverization of baby pigs, fish feed, poultry, and livestock Feed. It's widely used in animal feed processing, brewing, chemical, and biological industry.
The water drop hammer mill is an advanced crushing equipment that integrates high-efficiency crushing, low energy consumption, and intelligent operation. It is widely used in industries such as feed, grain, and oil processing, food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, for the fine crushing of various granular, blocky, and fibrous materials. The unique water-drop-shaped crushing chamber optimizes material flow trajectory and significantly improves crushing efficiency and product uniformity, making it the core equipment in modern large-scale crushing systems.
Water Drop Hammer Mill Structural Features and Design Details
Water-drop-shaped Crushing Chambers reduce airflow dead zones, increase effective crushing area, and boost processing speed compared to traditional round chambers.
Precision-balanced Rotor: The main shaft undergoes dynamic balancing treatment, ensuring smooth operation, minimal vibration, and low noise, significantly extending the life of bearings and the entire machine.
Adjustable Striking Plate and Screen: The position of the striking plate can be adjusted according to material properties, optimizing the crushing path and improving the fineness and uniformity of crushed products.
Quick-open Maintenance Door: The side door adopts a quick-opening design, facilitating easy maintenance and replacement of screens and hammers, saving time and labor.
Optional Pneumatic Screen Change System: Enables rapid switching between different screen sizes via pneumatic cylinders, improving production flexibility.
Wear-resistant Hammers and Screens: Critical wear parts are made of high-strength alloy steel and undergo special heat treatment, improving wear resistance by over 30%.
Safety Interlock System: Prevents motor startup if the maintenance door is not properly closed, ensuring operational safety.
High Output, Low Energy Consumption: Increases output by 15%-30% under the same power conditions, and reduces energy consumption per ton by 10%-15%.
Controllable Fineness: Particle size can be adjusted flexibly by changing screens with different hole diameters, meeting various production requirements.
Strong Adaptability: Suitable for materials with different moisture contents and hardness levels, especially effective for grains and high-fiber materials.
Compact Structure, Small Footprint: Facilitates flexible layout in both new and renovated projects.
Low Failure Rate and Maintenance Cost: Durable core components extend replacement cycles for wear parts, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Optional Intelligent Control System: Supports real-time monitoring of operational parameters, fault alarms, and data recording, enabling centralized control and smart factory upgrades.
The water drop hammer mill operates through high-speed rotation of hammers, generating strong impact, shearing, and friction forces to crush materials. When materials enter the crushing chamber through the feeding port, they are struck by the rotating hammers and rapidly shattered. Materials undergo multiple impacts, shearing, and extrusion within the chamber. Fine particles are discharged through the screen, while oversized particles are crushed until they meet the desired particle size.
The water-drop-shaped crushing chamber design effectively reduces airflow resistance, improves material distribution, enhances crushing efficiency, lowers energy consumption, and reduces hammer wear.
1. What types of materials is the water drop hammer mill suitable for?
It is suitable for various granular, blocky, and fibrous materials such as corn, wheat, soybean meal, cottonseed meal, grass powder, straw, and sawdust.
2. How to choose the appropriate screen hole size?
Screen hole size depends on the required finished particle size.
For livestock and poultry feed: Ø2.5-Ø4.0 mm screens are common.
For aquatic feed: finer sizes such as Ø0.8-Ø2.0 mm are recommended. We can provide professional recommendations based on customer needs.
3. How to reduce energy consumption during operation?
Selecting the proper model and screen size, ensuring full-load operation, maintaining sharp hammers, and keeping screens clear can significantly reduce energy consumption.
4. What is the typical replacement cycle for wear parts?
The service life of hammers and screens depends on the material type and production intensity.
High wear-resistant hammers typically last over 1,000 operating hours. Screens can last 600–800 hours. Regular inspections and timely replacements extend the equipment’s overall service life.
5. Does the machine support intelligent control?
Yes, we offer optional intelligent PLC control systems, supporting real-time monitoring, fault alarms, production data recording, and integration into smart factory management systems.
