Technical Specifications and Performance Features


As a proven pulverizer for six-inch material and smaller, the Model D handles a wide range of feedstock sizes and material properties. Process engineers appreciate the precision control over particle size distribution, while maintenance teams value the accessibility and straightforward serviceability.


Key specifications and features include:


  • Motor compatibility: Heavy-duty industrial pulverizer designed for 40 to 125 HP main drive motors, allowing you to optimize power consumption based on your specific material hardness, desired fineness and production rate.
  • Rotor configuration: 24-inch diameter rotor with swing hammer design, 490 square inches of screen area and maximum rotor speed of 3,450 RPM for consistent particle size reduction.
  • Feed system options: Dual feed screw arrangements available in 2-15/16-inch or 4-inch diameter for controlled material introduction. Gravity feed models accommodate lumps up to 6 inches in diameter, making them ideal for precrushed bulk materials.
  • Specialized feed arrangements: Horizontal feed opening designed for pneumatic conveying systems, plus a vertical feed trough grinding system frequently specified for carbon black processing applications.
  • Maintenance-friendly design: The hinged cover, equipped with a handle and four swing bolts, provides quick access to the grinding chamber for screen changes, hammer replacement and routine inspections.
  • Drive flexibility: Available in direct drive or belt-driven configurations to integrate with your existing power distribution infrastructure.



The Model D performs reliably as an industrial pulverizer for abrasive materials, handling challenging feedstocks including mineral concentrates, pigment presscakes and recycled polymers. Its robust construction minimizes unplanned downtime while delivering consistent particle size control.
