What is the grinding fineness distribution for a hammer mill?
A hammer mill allows for a wide range of grinding fineness. For example, cereals can be very finely ground into flour, with most particles being smaller than 100-200 um. It is also possible to grind products very coarsely. This is possible in the same hammer mill by adjusting the sieve perforation, the speed and the hammers in the grinding chamber.
