Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides an overview of Gericke's powder processing equipment, focusing on size reduction systems. It highlights the advantages of Gericke Nibblers, Reductors, and Cone Nibblers for economical and efficient particle size reduction.
Gericke Nibblers: These devices offer a cost-effective solution for coarse and fine size reduction, minimizing issues like temperature rise, noise, and dust. Key features include quick release baskets, dust-tight access doors, and compliance with Atex Zone 22 and 21. They are suitable for a wide range of materials and applications, providing high capacity with low power consumption.
The Reductor: Designed for coarse size reduction, the Reductor handles materials up to 500mm, reducing them to approximately 25mm pieces. It features a robust construction with options for carbon and stainless steel contact parts. Typical applications include pre-breaking raw materials and reprocessing scrap materials.
The Nibbler: Suitable for medium size reduction, the Nibbler processes particles ranging from 25mm to 1mm. It features adjustable rotor blades and screen sizes, allowing for controlled output with consistent particle size. Applications include de-agglomeration and reprocessing of oversize materials.
The Cone Nibbler: This equipment is used for fine size reduction, handling particles from 6mm to 150 microns. It features a unique rotor gap adjustment system and is ideal for processing dry, moist, and heat-sensitive materials. Applications include fine size reduction for finished products and reclaiming tablets and capsules.
Additional Services: Gericke offers a comprehensive range of services including bulk storage systems, pneumatic conveying, sieving, feeding, mixing, and process control. Their equipment is known for quality, value, and reliability, making them a preferred partner in the bulk solids process industry.

Gericke Nibblers; Simple, Flexible and Comprehensive Size Reduction. The most effective method of particle size reduction has been a major consideration for solids handling processors for many years and in the past has traditionally involved the use of large scale equipment with high capital cost and energy requirements. Today, Gericke Nibblers provide the ideal alternative. Cost effective, highly efficient solutions for coarse and fine size reduction and also the de- agglomeration of lumps. The well proven Nibbler principle is based upon a cutting or grating action, Gericke Nibbler offer many...

The Reductor: Coarse Size Reduction. Particle Size Range: 500mm to 20mm The Reductor is designed for pre-breaking blocks, lumps and slabs up to 500mm square with no restriction on the height of the material. A rotor assembly complete with internal discharge screw and cutting teeth mounted onto the outside of the drum rotates slowly to reduce the blocks to approximately 25mm pieces. Holes cut into the rotor body around the teeth allow the reduced pieces to pass into the discharge screw and out of the machine. The Reductor does NOT require a metered feed and can be used in combination with a Nibbler...

The Nibbler: Medium Size Reduction. Particle Size Range 25mm - 1mm A gravity feed of product enters the nibbler which uses a low speed high torque rotating paddle assembly to sweep the material across a static serrated screen, inducing a cutting or grating action. The gap between the rotor blade and screen is fully adjustable and this movement together with a frequency inverter, used to change the rpm of the rotor, optimises the performance of the machine to deal with different material characteristics and to provide a controlled output feed with consistent particle size, without the production...

The Cone Nibbler: Fine Size Reduction. Particle Size Range 6mm - 150 micron The Cone Nibbler incorporates a vertically mounted rotating tool which moves the material across a conical static serrated screen introducing a low velocity high impact cutting action into the product which is fed by gravity into the machine. Sub screen size product passes through the screen into the chamber whilst oversize particles not reduced by the first pass are carried by the vortex action of the tooling up towards the inlet returning it into the cutting chamber until the desired particle size distribution is achieved....
