Intro to Size Reduction - Schutte Hammermill
2023.2.14 The simplest way to describe the concept of size reduction is to look at the industrial hammer mill model: Hammer mills operate on the basic principle that most materials will crush, shatter or pulverize upon impact. This is accomplished by a simple four step process: Material is fed into the mill, typically by gravity.

2023.7.4 Size reduction is accomplished by the interparticle collision or collision of the particles with the walls of the mill. The mechanism of particle size reduction is impact and attrition. Unlike the ball mill, there is no grinding medium is used in the fluid energy mill for the size reduction of the materials.

Size reduction, or comminution, by mechanical crush- ing and grinding is an important unit operation in the chemical, power, mineral, metallurgical, and pharma-ceutical industries. Throughput for an individual device can range in scale from a few kilograms per hour for specialty products to hundreds of tons per hour for ore-extraction operations.

2019.1.1 In terms of energy utilisation, size reduction is a very inefficient process, and only between 0.1% and 2.0% of the energy supplied to the machine appears as increased surface energy in the solids. The efficiency of the process is very much influenced by the manner in which the load is applied and its magnitude.
