The main aim of a Hammer Mill is to crush and aggregate materials into smaller pieces. It accomplishes this by repeatedly striking the material with a succession of strokes.

The hammer mill grinder is the most widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, and food processing grinding mills. This grinding consists of several hammers (usually at least four) connected by a focal shaft and encased in a rigid metal container. The effect causes a size reduction.

These rectangular chunks of hardened steel (ganged hammer), which pivot at high speed inside the chamber, strike the materials milled.

These dramatically swinging hammers (from the rotating focal shaft) operate high precision, resulting in the fragile part of the feed material being broken, the H-mill crushes the material into many different shapes.

Hammer mills are categorized as half-screen hammer mills, full-screen hammer mills, and screenless hammer mills based on the shape of the screener. It can be divided into small and large hammer mills based on their size and output capacity.

The working principle of a hammer mill in a CNC milling company

First, you feed the metal materials into the feed hopper, and they will fall into the pulverizing room. In the pulverizing room, the metal materials are beaten by the high-speed rotating hammer and bounce to the toothed plates. They bounce back and repeat this process.

The materials are being ground between the hammers and the screener in the meantime. The metal materials are crushed into small particles by the hammers' beating, collision, and friction, toothed plates, and screener until they are small enough to pass through the screener.

The blower then blasts out the crushed metal elements through the screener. The air and the final product are separated by a metal powder collector (collector cartridge or dust bag). The airflow will expel out the crushed materials in the pulverizing room if the hammermill does not have a wind blower.

Fine to moderate powder grinding can be achieved depending on the hammer speed. The particle size predicted ranges from 10 to 400 mm. Brittle materials that are non-abrasive to moderately abrasive can be used as feedstock.

It may mill dry materials, wet filter press cakes, ointments, and slurries, among other things. Cutting edges are better for reducing the size of fibrous material, while blunt hammers are best for fracturing brittle material.

How can you tell if a hammer mill is performing well?

A hammer mill's performance isn't always consistent. There are times when you can process significant amounts of material in a short amount of time, and other times when the hammer mill is too slow.

Furthermore, it can create fine particles at times and massive particles at other times, although you intended microscopic particles.

The following are some of the critical parameters that influence the hammer mill's performance:

Hammer design and configuration

Shaft and motor speed

Screen size

As you can see, the settings can be tweaked based on the level of performance you want to attain.
