Pulverizer
Pulverizers are used to smash materials into tiny shards or granules. Pulverizers can crush all types of items, including glass, aluminum, concrete, plastic, coal, rock, resin, tires, and medical waste.
A shredder pulverizer takes care of metal, tires, plastic, medical waste, and paper. A shredder pulverizer uses evenly spaced blades to cut material into strips. Some shredder pulverizers contain both vertically and horizontally spaced blades, which leave the processed material looking much like a form of confetti.
A hammer mill pulverizer can be used to crush minerals, glass, chemicals, cement, metals, and paper. This type of pulverizer contains a deep bin with a large hydraulic steel plunger on top of the machine. The steel plunger drops with incredible force, demolishing any contents placed below in the bin. A form of hammer mill pulverizer is commonly used to crush cars.
A double roll crusher pulverizer reduces many rocks and minerals. This type of pulverizer contains a bin in the middle of the machine, which sits between two large rollers. The rollers grind items that are fed into the bin. As the items are ground to pieces, they are pushed out of the machine.
A ring mill pulverizer can help reduce aluminum, minerals, coal, and recyclables. It has a large, steel rolling blade that chops and grinds any item placed into the roller. Once the items have been ground up, they drop into small holes under the rolling blade.
A granulator pulverizer takes care of wire, plastic, and rubber. Similar to a shredder pulverizer, a granulator uses thousands of evenly spaced blades to finely mince material placed into the machinery. Once the material is minced, it can be melted down and reformed into new product.
A wood hog pulverizer grinds down wood and bark. Using high-speed blades, a wood hog grinds wood into tiny chips. The wood can then be used for mulch, burned, or broken down further and turned into paper.
An impactor pulverizer can be used to break down concrete, gypsum, asphalt, and aluminum. Using a heavy metal drop-down arm, an impactor pulverizer repeatedly smashes the material inside and fractures the object at points of weakness. In the end, the crushed material takes on a square appearance and can be formed into easy-to-remove cube blocks of waste. An impactor pulverizer is commonly used on wet materials due to the machine’s ability to handle moisture.
A tube mill is a revolving cylinder of up to five diameters in length used for fine pulverization of ore, rock, and other such materials; the material, mixed with water, is fed into the chamber from one end, and passes out the other end as slime.
Ring and Ball Mill consists of two rings separated by a series of large balls. The lower ring rotates, while the upper ring presses down on the balls via a set of spring and adjuster assemblies. The material to be pulverized is introduced into the center or side of the pulverizer (depending on the design) and is ground as the lower ring rotates causing the balls to orbit between the upper and lower rings. The pulverized material is carried out of the mill by the flow of air moving through it. The size of the pulverized particles released from the grinding section of the mill is determined by a classifer separator.
MPS Mill is Similar to the Ring and Ball Mill, this mill uses large "tires" to crush the coal. These are usually found in utility plants.
Bowl Mill is Similar to the MPS mill; it also uses tires to crush coal. There are two types, a deep bowl mill, and a shallow bowl mill.
