Hammermill

A hammermill is a machine used to shred or grind materials into smaller pieces, often for processing or recycling. It works by using rotating hammers attached to a fast-spinning rotor inside a sturdy chamber. When materials are fed into the chamber, the hammers quickly strike and break them down. Hammermills are commonly used in industries like agriculture, waste management, and manufacturing to process everything from grains to scrap metal. They are valued for their ability to handle large volumes and produce consistent particle sizes efficiently.
