The Hamex® Hammer Mill has been developed for grinding soft to medium-hard products. In the hammer mill, the free-hanging hammers swing around at a high speed in the grinding chamber. The semi automatic exchanger enables screen changing without stopping the rotor.
Safely change screens without stopping the rotor
The Hamex® Semi Automatic hammer mill runs at a lower speed than the Hamex® hammer mill, namely a maximum of 1800 rpm. However, the tip speed of the hammers has remained the same, so you can achieve a comparable grinding with a lower energy consumption. Thanks to the robust design and the relatively low speed, there is also a minimal noise level. Pleasant for the operator and good for reliability.
The semi-automatic screen exchange system allows you to change screens while the rotor is still rotating. The fact that you don't have to stop the rotor results in a time saving of 10 minutes per screen change! Furthermore, the Hamex® Semi Automatic is also equipped with large inspection hatches that provide quick and easy access for inspection, cleaning and maintenance of the relevant parts.
Hamex® hammer mills have been used successfully for decades by manufacturers in various sectors. It is a reliable solution for grinding soft to medium-hard products, such as grains, sugars and minerals with finenesses from 150 microns to approximately 3 mm. All Hamex® hammer mills are designed as follows, for efficiency and reliability:
See how cleverly placed hammers grind the product
Free-hanging percussion hammers swing around at high speed in the hammer mill. The resulting centrifugal force crushes the grinding material against the special breaking plates in the inside of the grinding chamber. The ground product then leaves the hammer mill through the exchangeable screen. Depending on the properties of the product to be ground, single hammers, double hammers or T-hammers are used.

More efficient, safer and more secure grinding process
Normally, the hammer mill rotor has to come to a stop before the screens can be changed, which can take a long time. This can take a lot of time, especially if you want to change the sieve regularly. To ensure that manufacturers do not have to wait for this, Dinnissen has developed a semi-automatic screen change system.
With the Hamex® Semi Automatic hammer mill, the sieve in its sieve holder is automatically driven out of the machine, after which the operator can quickly exchange or inspect the sieve manually. During this operation, the rotor can continue to rotate, which saves you approximately ten minutes of production time per screen change. That is the time it normally takes for the rotor to come to a standstill. A considerable time saving if you want to change products regularly.
