Crushing technology
Chain crusher
The chain crusher reduces material by impact and throwing with freely moving chains on the rotor. This layout can reduce clogging risk with sticky and moist feed, but tramp material must still be considered during sizing.

Operating principle
Chains hang from the rotor and strike the feed at high relative speed. Impact breaks agglomerates and throwing disperses moist lumps. Chains, housing protection and tramp protection are specified for the actual duty.
Where this machine is used
Fertiliser, coal, clay, lumpy soil, salt and agglomerates in fertiliser plants, chemicals and mining.

Frequently asked sizing questions
When should a chain crusher be assessed?
It is assessed for lumpy, moist or sticky feed where freely moving chains can break agglomerates by impact. Suitability depends on hardness, abrasiveness, moisture and tramp material.
Which data determines sizing?
Required data includes material, feed and target size, throughput, moisture, bulk density, operating hours and tramp-material information. Rotor, chains, drive and wear protection are then specified for the project.
How are wear and maintenance addressed?
Chain grade, housing lining and access are selected for the material and operating mode. Binding wear life can only be agreed from reliable operating or trial data.
