Abstract
A roller press system for processing working material. The roller press system includes a housing, first and second rollers, and a carriage. The carriage is mounted for movement on the housing between first and second positions. The first roller is supported by the housing for rotation about a first roller axis. The second roller is supported by the carriage for rotation about a second roller axis. The housing supports the first roller and the carriage such that the first and second roller axes are substantially parallel. Movement of the carriage relative to the housing alters a distance between the first and second roller axes. The first and second rollers define a press path along which the working material passes during processing.
