Cascade
A second stream of material can be cascaded in a controlled quantity into the crushing chamber, causing an increase in the particle population within the chamber. This improves energy transfer.
Material is fed through the top of the crusher. Depending on product requirements, the material is fed straight into the rotor or bypasses the rotor and enters the crushing chamber by way of the cascade feed system.
In combination with other variables such as rotor diameter, speed and crushing chamber profile, this enhances power efficiency, reduces wear, plus provides an efficient means of controlling the grinding and crushing action to either maximise or minimise fines.
