The wood hammer mill adopts a hammer and screen system to efficiently crush wood chips, straw, waste paper, and coconut shells into uniformly sized sawdust and wood particles (3–8 mm).

Compared with traditional blade-type wood crushers, the hammer-type wood crusher is more versatile due to its hammering principle. It can handle a wider range of materials — including high-moisture, hard, or fibrous ones such as wood blocks, branches, bamboo, corn cobs, straw, and coconut shells. In contrast, conventional blade crushers are only suitable for dry materials like wooden boards, wood chips, and branches.

Shuliy offers seven models of wood hammer mill crushers, with capacities ranging from 800 kg/h to 5 tons/h, meeting the production needs of most wood processing factories.

Thanks to its durable quality and excellent crushing performance, Shuliy’s wood hammer mill has been well received by customers in many countries, including Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, Mexico, Tanzania, and the Arab region etc.

• Other materials: Apart from the above, the hammer mill can handle a diverse range of materials, such as cardboard boxes, coconut shells, Chinese herbal medicines, and forages, catering to different industries’ specific needs.

Now, let’s dive into the working principle of the wood hammer mill to see how these materials are processed.

Wood hammer mill working principle

The wood hammer mill operates on a straightforward working principle based on impact and attrition. When the machine is in operation, the rotating hammers, typically made of high-strength steel, swing at high speed and strike the wood or other materials fed into the crushing chamber.

The wood or biomass materials enter the grinding chamber through the top feeding hopper. As the hammers rotate, they deliver powerful blows to the incoming materials, breaking them down into smaller pieces. The size of the final output particles is determined by the size of the holes in the screen or grate located at the bottom of the grinding chamber.

As the process continues, the smaller particles pass through the screen, while the larger particles remain inside the chamber for further grinding. The continuous rotation of the hammers and the presence of the screen ensure a controlled and consistent size reduction process.

The working principle of the wood hammer mill is both efficient and straightforward. Let’s take a closer look at the key advantages that set our wood hammer mill apart from the rest.

Structure of the wood hammer mill crusher

The hammer-type wood crusher mainly consists of the machine body, rotor system, hammers, screen, feed inlet, discharge outlet, and motor drive system. Its core is the high-speed rotating hammers, which impact, shear, and grind the material. The screen controls the particle size of the output, enabling efficient crushing of various raw materials such as wood, grains, charcoal, and fibers.
