1. Hammer mills with internal classification
2. Fluid-energy mills
3. Colloid Mills
4. Agitated mills
D. Cutting machines
– Knife cutters; dicers; slitters
• Crusher: ① Heavy work of breaking large pieces of solid material into small
lumps
② Compression is the characteristic action
Primary crusher: operates on run-of-mine material accepting anything that
comes from mine face & breaking it into 150 to 250 mm
lumps
Secondary crusher: further reduces these lumps into small particles
• Ultrafine grinder: ① Accepts feed particles no larger than 6mm and the product
size is typically 1 to 5mm
② Operates principally by attrition
• Cutters: ① Give particles of definite size and shape, 2 to 10mm in length

Roller-Mills
• Roller mills are similar to roller crushers
• But they have smooth or finely fluted
rolls, and rotate at differential speeds
• In the figure, roller press outward with great
great force against a stationary anvil ring.

D. Cutting Machines
• Feed-stocks are
too difficult to broken by compression, impact, or attrition
to be reduced to fixed dimensions
• Requirements met by equipments that cut, chop, or tear the feed
• Equipments: Sawtoothed crushers; Rotary knife cutter;
Granulators; etc.
• Examples of Size-reduction Operations by Cutting machines
-- Size-reduction in rubber & plastic manufacturing
-- Applications in recycling papers and plastic materials
