Granulex. The high capacity grinding solution.

application The hammer mill Granulex has been designed for high capacity grinding in various industries. Primarily applied in the feed manufacturing industries for pre- and post-grinding operations, it is also utilized for size reduction applications in the biomass, oil milling and other food processing industries. The hammer mill masters to process a wide range of raw materials, both in coarse and fine grinding applications.

Powerful grinding up to 75 t/h Granulex was created with one thought in mind: to bring maximum efficiency to high capacity grinding. The powerful 400-kW motor makes light work of process ing capacities of up to 75 t/h.* Thanks to the machines large rotor diameter of 1500 mm, the hammer tip-speed of 118 m/s is the highest of any 50-hz hammer mill, resulting in superior particle granulation in fine grind ing applications.

Driving up availability. hammering down costs.

minimum downtime thanks to fast and easy maintenance Granulex has been designed for maximum availability, and to require a minimum number of operators. Whether changing applications or servicing the machine, speed and simplicity are the order of the day. Sliding doors on both sides of the hammer mill allow for fast and easy access to the grinding chamber. The double guided sliding doors are smooth-running, and safety switches provide maximum operator safety while the machine is in operation. Subdivided into four parts, the screens can be easily handled and replaced by one person only. The userfriendly screen clamping mechanism allows for fast and proper fastening of the screens. The hammers are designed for replacement by a single person in less than 30 minutes. This is made possible by the intuitive ergonomic design and the following features: short hammer bars which can be easily handled by one person rotor braking device arresting the rotor during the hammer change special change-over tool for the hammers, preventing them from dropping into the grinding chamber largest screen area of any 400-kW hammer mill With 4 square meters of surface, the screen area is the largest of any 400-kW hammer mill. Discharge of ground material out of the grinding chamber is improved, reducing the load of the hammer mill. This results in less wear of the screens and hammers.

More milling, less cleaning. A superior standard of hygiene.

Hygienic design preventing dust settlements The mills sturdy and rugged build is complemented by a design of smooth, plain surfaces without rough edges. As a consequence there are fewer places for dust to settle and cleaning time is kept to a bare minimum. The closed machine housing efficiently prevents dust settlements in the motor chamber. intelligent feeder solution The mills intelligent feeder system ensures continuous feeding and an even distribution of material to the grinding chamber. The feed rate is automatically adjusted to the load of the hammer mill by the electrically operated feeder gate and the frequency controlled feeder roll. Technical data of feeder The integrated heavy particle separator and a permanent magnet remove any impurities such as stones or ferrous items. Global customer service reliable and high-quality spare and wear parts are key for operating the machine at its maximum performance. Only genuine Bhler hammers and screens meet the highest standards of quality and precision. Thanks to the global setup and network of service experts, prompt delivery is guaranteed anywhere in the world.
