    Size reduction equipment is divided into crushers, grinders, ultrafine grinders, and cutting machines. Crushers break large solid materials into small lumps, primary crushers break run-of-mine material into 150-250mm lumps, and secondary crushers further reduce lumps to around 6mm. Grinders reduce crushed feed to powder, with intermediate grinders producing particles that pass a 40-mesh screen and fine grinders passing a 200-mesh screen. Ultrafine grinders accept feed up to 6mm and produce particles typically 1-5mm. Cutting machines produce particles 2-10mm in length of a definite size and shape.

    Size reduction equipment is divided into

    crushers, grinders,

    ultrafine grinders, and cutting machines.

    Crushers do the heavy work of breaking large pieces of solid material into
    small lumps. A primary crusher operates on run-of -mine material accepting
    anything that comes from mine face and breaking it into 150 to 250 mm
    lumps. A secondary crusher reduces these lumps into particles perhaps 6mm
    in size.
    Grinders reduce crushed feed to powder. The product from an intermediate
    grinder might pass a 40-mesh screen; most of the product from a fine grinder
    would pass a 200-mesh screen with a 74mm opening.
    An ultrafine grinder accepts feed particles no larger than 6mm and the
    product size is typically 1 to 5mm.
    Cutters give particles of definite size and shape, 2 to 10mm in length.

    The principal types of size-reduction machines are as follows:


    A. Crushers (coarse and fine)
    1. Jaw crushers
    2. Gyratory crushers
    3. Crushing rolls
    B. Grinders (intermediate and fine)
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4.

    Hammer mills; impactors


    Rolling-compression mills
    Attrition mills
    Tumbling mills

    C. Ultrafine grinders
    1. Hammer mills with internal classification
    2. Fluid-energy mills
    3. Agitated mills
    D. Cutting machines
    1. Knife cutters; dicers; slitters

    Mechanism of ultrafine grinding


    During ultrafine grinding, particle breakage occurs by familiar mechanisms: impact
    or attrition by shear or a combination of these.
