Hamex® Hammer Mills

Available on request

Hamex® Hammer Mills are designed for the grinding of soft to medium-hard products with a fineness from 150 microns to about 3 mm. In the hammer mill, freely suspended hammers swing around at high speed in the grinding chamber. Depending on the properties of the product to be ground, single hammers, double hammers or T-hammers are used.

  • Proven robust construction: long life and low maintenance
  • Variable direction of rotation to spread wear
  • Optimized over decades for efficiency, capacity, and uptime

Optimized for capacity and reliability

Hamex® Hammer Mills have been successfully used for decades by producers in various industries. It is a reliable solution for grinding soft to medium-hard products, such as grains, sugars, and minerals with a fineness from 150 microns to about 3 mm.  

The Hamex® Hammer Mill is the result of years of innovation and continuous development to make it even more efficient, productive, reliable, energy-efficient, (explosion) safe, and quiet. All Hamex® Hammer Mills are designed as follows:

  • Long service life thanks to tried and tested robust construction
  • Good accessibility: worn parts can be replaced quickly
  • Variable direction of rotation to spread wear
  • Production, quality control, and testing are all carried out in-house
  • Optimized over decades for efficiency, capacity, and uptime

Key features, options, and models

Hamex® Hammer Mills can be equipped with frequency control, which allows the rotor speed to be adjusted accurately to the desired result. This makes it easy to switch between a fine or coarse grind. Another option is a specially developed airflow system. This increases the capacity and saves on energy consumption. Normally, the hammer mill rotor must come to a stop before the sifters can be changed. Especially if you want to change sifters regularly, this is time-consuming. To ensure as little downtime as possible, we have developed a full- and semi-automatic sifter changing system.

How does a Hamex® Hammer Mill work?

In the hammer mill, freely suspended hammers swing around at high speed. The resulting centrifugal force crushes the grinding material against the special crushing plates inside the grinding chamber. The crushed product then leaves the hammer mill through the replaceable sifter. Depending on the properties of the product to be ground, single hammers, double hammers or T-hammers are used.
