Device for processing free-flowing input material

A device for processing free-flowing input material for comminution, compaction, and briquetting of input material, the device comprising:

• a machine frame formed by longitudinal and transverse walls;
• a rolling mill having at least one pair of oppositely rotating rollers arranged in the machine frame, the rotating rollers being arranged axially parallel next to one another so as to maintain a radial roller gap and are rotatably mounted in the transverse walls, wherein the input material is processed upon passage through the roller gap, wherein an upstream region located upstream of the roller gap is used to feed the input material and a downstream region is used to discharge the material;
• and
• a feed chute arranged in the upstream region for feeding, the feed chute having longitudinal chute walls and end chute walls, the end chute walls each disposed with an axial separation between the transverse walls of the machine frame to form an open space.
