FITZMILLS

How Fitzmills Work

In general, hammer mills operate on the idea that most materials will crush, shatter, or pulverize upon impact. So, how fitzmills work is that materials are fed into the mill’s chamber through the feed chute simply by using gravity. It is here where the material is struck by ganged hammers attached to a shaft that rotates at high speeds inside the mill’s grinding chamber. Repeated hammer impacts, collisions with the walls of the grinding chamber and particle on particle impacts will crush or shatter the material.

The use of perforated metal screens and/or bar grates covering the discharge opening of the mill keep the coarse material for further grinding. All while allowing properly sized materials to pass through. And so on until the process is complete.
