The Differences of Disc Mill and Hammer Mill

The disc mill and hammer mill have their own advantages, and their application scenarios are different, so they should be selected according to factors such as material characteristics and fineness requirements.

Disc Mill

Hammer Mill

The advantages and disadvantages of the two devices depend on the specific application requirements:

A: Fineness Adjustment Range:

The disc mill machine can usually provide finer grinding effect, and the fineness range can reach 0.2mm, which is suitable for industries with high fineness requirements such as food, traditional Chinese medicine and seasoning.

The fineness of hammer mill machine is relatively low, generally 0.8mm-10mm, and it is suitable for scenes such as feed and miscellaneous grains that are not extremely demanding on fineness.

B: Material Adaptability:

The disc mill machine is mainly suitable for granular, flaky or blocky materials (such as sugar, salt, cassava, pepper and whole grains), but it is difficult to treat fibrous or irregular materials such as rattan and straw.

Hammer mill machine has a wider application range, which can crush granular, flaky and massive materials, and can also handle vines, straws, cartons, newspapers and other irregular materials.

C: Structure and Operation Characteristics:

The disc mill machine realizes pulverization through the relative movement of the toothed disc and material friction, which has stronger sealing performance, is more convenient to replace the screen (roller ring) and supports the dust removal device.

Hammer crusher relies on high-speed hammer impact and material friction crushing, which is more compact in structure and faster in crushing speed, but slightly poor in sealing, slightly less flexible in fineness adjustment, and supports dust removal devices.

D: Conclusion:

If high fineness and regular material shape are pursued, the disc mill machine is better; If it is necessary to deal with various materials (such as fibers) and the fineness requirement is moderate, the hammer mill is more suitable.
