On-target particle size for low-density, light materials TRANSFORMING MATERIALS INTO VALUE

TRANSFORMING MATERIALS INTO VALUE The Company BHS-Sonthofen is an owner-operated group of companies specialized in machinery and plant engineering. The group is headquartered in Sonthofen, Germany. BHS provides technical solutions for mechanical process engineering with a focus on mixing, crushing, recycling and filtration technologies. With more than 300 employees and several subsidiaries, BHS-Sonthofen maintains a global presence. More than 100 Years of Experience in Crushing Technology 100 years have already passed since we built the first crushers for the rock and stone industry. We have...

BHS Granulator The Granulator is a high-speed single-shaft cutter designed for secondary sizing of low-density, light, elastic and brittle materials. The feed material is cut between the rotor equipped with fly blades and the static blade seat. The final product has the desired particle size.

On-Target Cutting Results Consistent Cutting Results The Granulator can be used to process a wide variety of feed stock. The selected screen pitch determines the desired particle size. The blades usually wear more quickly near the center of the rotor than at the edges. The modular static blade seat segments are adjustable to help maintain a consistently high cutting quality. Clean Cutting Quality The blades are precision manufactured to very tight tolerances. They are hardened using a special process to ensure a long service life. The blades are also simple to adjust and replace. Blades The blades...

Infeed Hopper The machine is equipped with a large, central infeed hopper. On demand, customized hoppers are offered in addition to the standard versions. 2 The rotor is produced from a solid forged part and has a high inertia mass. A rotating wear ring protects the rotor edges at the housing mounting point from wear. 3 The special V-shaped arrangement of the blade seats on the rotor ensures optimum material infeed and optimal cutting results. The blade seats are welded to the main body of the rotor. 4 The screen unit consists of several screen segments in series. This modular design results...

Frequency Inverter The machine is equipped with an electronic frequency inverter. This allows the speed to be adapted to individual process conditions and prevents the generation of costly peak currents. Isolated Rotor Bearing The rotor shaft bearings are located in a double-walled housing. This effectively protects the shaft bearings from the effects of heat and dust. 1 Hydraulic Pusher Unit A hydraulic pusher device is available as an option. It ensures continuous material infeed when processing low-density, light or bulky feed stock.

Functional Description The feed material is cut between the rotor equipped with blades and the static blade seat. A screen is located beneath the rotor. Oversize feed stock unable to pass through the screen will be transported back to the top of the rotor and cut again. As a result, the final product has the desired particle size with few undersized particles. Detailed illustration of the static blade seat
