Abstract
An apparatus for reducing various material to smaller sizes emphasizing large volume with long pieces. The apparatus has a frame case, with an infeed and outfeed, within which at least one rotor with at least one radially tilted forward cutter bar cuts the material against one anvil. A grate is used to size the material to final product dimensions. The frame case is angularly split. Where more than one rotor is used, they are radially offset.
Claims11
An apparatus comprising:
- a frame case;
- an infeed;
- a shaft mounted on bearings;
- at least two rotors mounted on said shaft;
- at least one rotor cutter bar support extending from each said rotor at an angle from a radial line extending from the centerline of said shaft;
- at least one radially tilted forward cutter bar having five sides and being parallel to said shaft centerline and is attached to said rotor cutter bar support where each radially tilted forward cutter bar of one rotor is radially offset from each radially tilted forward cutter ar of another rotor and where a longest side of the five sides of said radially tilted forward cutter bar is on a radial plane extending from the centerline of said shaft;
- at least one anvil;
- a grate for sizing the material;
- an outfeed the full width of said rotors;
- and a drive motor.
