Shredding and Crumbling

The process of breaking up clumped (compacted, stuck together) loose materials is very important for many reasons. Lumps or clumps formed, for example, as a result of moisture, pressure, or long storage, disrupt the flowability of the bulk material. Their grinding allows for the re-obtaining of a homogeneous, free-flowing powder or granulate that can be easily transported, mixed, or dosed.

Clumped material can lead to:

• clogging of hoppers, pipes, dispensers, sieves
• irregular dosing
• production stoppage
• uneven concentration of components, especially in mixtures
• unsightly appearance (e.g. in retail packaging)

Our LBS series shredders can be used in many processes and work perfectly with other devices operating with a stream of loose materials.

Common uses:

• under silos and tanks
• under Big-Bag stations, bag unloading stations, etc.
• before screening, granulation, tableting, drying, or mixing
• before pneumatic or mechanical transport
• before grinding – as a preliminary shredder
• before dispensing
