Particle size reduction by a hammer mill I: Effect of output …

A new particle size reduction constant, k, is proposed as a result of a linear relationship between dx and output screen size, dss. As dss decreases, the PSD range of milled particles narrows; as mill speed increases (approximately 5000 rpm), dx decreases. The decrease is of a greater magnitude for larger dss (2 mm) than for a smaller dss (1 mm

What are the Principles of Size Reduction?

Using impact and attrition, fine grinders reduce materials until they are ground to a grain size level. Solid materials are broken down through mechanical forces, breaking up particles by overcoming internal bonding forces. Grinding not only reduces particle size but also changes the shape and nature of the particles.
