Working principle of semi wet material crusher

The semi-wet material crusher utilizes a horizontally arranged high-speed rotor in conjunction with multiple rows of high-strength hammer heads. When material with a moisture content of 20%-60% enters the screenless crushing chamber through the feed opening, the rotor drives the hammer heads to rotate at high speeds of 1,000-3,000 RPM, subjecting the material to triple crushing via impact, shearing, and tearing: The upper rotor initially crushes larger pieces of material, while the lower rotor further refines them into uniform fine powder. Simultaneously, the hammers and adjustable gap liners create a repeated grinding effect between the material and powder, ensuring precise control of the output particle size within the range of 0.5-50 millimeters; Its unique screenless structure, combined with an anti-adhesive coating and vibration cleaning device, enables high-moisture materials to automatically detach without sticking to the walls during crushing, completely resolving the issues of blockages and high energy consumption common in traditional equipment. The final product is uniformly fine powder discharged through the bottom outlet, meeting the particle size and moisture requirements for processes such as organic fertilizer granulation and biomass fermentation.

Horizontal crusher

A horizontal crusher uses a high-speed rotor mounted horizontally, equipped with hardened steel blades. It shreds and pulverizes material through a combination of cutting, tearing, and impact, all without using a clog-prone screen.

The process is simple and very effective. Raw material is fed into the top of the machine and falls onto the rapidly spinning horizontal rotor. The blades on this rotor aggressively grab, cut, and shred the material apart. The chamber is designed so the material is thrown against the inner walls and other particles, which breaks it down even further. This continuous shredding action is especially effective on fibrous materials, pulling them apart strand by strand. Just like our vertical crushers, it has an open discharge at the bottom. The pulverized material falls straight through once it is small enough. This screenless design is the key to its “semi-wet” capability. It ensures there is nowhere for damp material to stick and build up. This means you get continuous operation without frustrating downtime for cleaning.

Why choose a semi wet material crusher

Sludge crusher

Semi wet material crushers can efficiently process materials with high moisture content, which are often difficult to process with traditional crushers, thus having stronger adaptability. By rapidly crushing high humidity, multi fiber materials, the efficiency of subsequent processing steps such as mixing, fermentation, and granulation can be significantly improved. The crushed material has uniform particle size, high product quality, and reduces costs.

What are the price factors for semi wet material crushers

The price of semi wet material crusher is influenced by various factors, including equipment specifications and models, materials and durability, production process and technical level, brand and after-sales service, market supply and demand relationship, regional differences, and additional functions and accessories. Therefore, when making a purchase, it is necessary to comprehensively consider one’s own needs and budget.

Application scope of semi wet material crusher

The semi wet material crusher is widely used to process high humidity, multi fiber materials, such as bio organic materials, urban household waste, industrial organic waste, and fermented products of poultry and livestock manure. It plays an important role in organic fertilizer production, agricultural waste treatment, and environmental protection due to its efficient crushing, strong adaptability, and simple operation.

• Organic fertilizer production: shortening the process flow and improving fertilizer quality

In the processing of raw materials such as chicken manure, cow manure, and straw, the equipment can directly crush materials with a moisture content of 30%-50% to 20-30 mesh, meeting the feed requirements of disc pelletizers.

• Environmentally friendly and harmless treatment: Safe disposal of urban wet waste

For kitchen waste, sludge, and other materials with a moisture content of 30%-45%, the equipment can crush hard impurities such as glass and ceramics to prevent damage to subsequent processing equipment. Data from the 2024 Fujisawa City waste treatment project shows that after processing with a semi-wet material crusher, the content of kitchen waste in compost raw materials increased to 80%, and the paper recovery rate reached 85%-95%.

• Biomass energy: Efficient preparation of fermentation raw materials

In biogas fermentation and biomass pellet fuel production, the equipment can grind materials such as distiller’s grains and fungal residues into uniform fine powder, thereby improving fermentation efficiency.

There are two types of organic fertilizer crushers: vertical crusher and horizontal crusher

1. The vertical crusher has a compact structure and a small footprint; The horizontal crusher is relatively large.
2. The vertical crusher is suitable for handling small volume materials with high humidity and multi fibers; A horizontal crusher can handle larger volumes or densities of materials, and has strong adaptability to the moisture content of the materials.
3. Both operations are relatively simple and can be selected based on material characteristics, production needs, and site conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Question 1: What moisture level does “semi-wet” mean?
“Semi-wet” generally refers to a moisture content in the range of 20% to 40%. The material is damp and can be clumpy, but it is not a liquid or a very sticky paste. This is typical for fermented compost or dewatered crop residues.

Question 2: What is the main maintenance task for this crusher?
The main maintenance task is inspecting and replacing the blades. Because they do the hard work of shredding, they will wear down over time. Our design uses high-quality, hardened alloy steel and provides easy access to the rotor so blades can be changed quickly.

Question 3: Can this machine handle hard materials like stones or metal?
No. This machine is designed specifically for organic materials. Feeding it hard objects like rocks, concrete, or metal scraps can severely damage the blades and the rotor. We recommend pre-screening your raw materials if contamination is a risk.

Question 4: How is the energy consumption compared to a vertical crusher?
Energy consumption is generally similar for machines of a comparable size and capacity. However, because the horizontal crusher often has a higher throughput, its energy consumption per ton of processed material can be lower, making it very efficient.

Organic fertilizer production line process

The organic fertilizer production line is a production system that integrates the steps of raw material collection, pretreatment, fermentation, granulation, drying, screening, packaging, etc. It can convert organic waste such as aquaculture waste, crop straw, and food processing waste into organic fertilizers rich in nutrients for agricultural production.
