Sizers

Sizers are automated tools that assist you in managing the size and scope of a particular solution environment. They are quite powerful, but sometimes unintuitive. This is intended as a guide to aid in understanding what all those parameters do. Speed Sizing is one of the more unique crushing technologies in the world today. A combination of high torque and low roll speeds with a unique tooth profile in the equipment leads to a specified product with a minimum of fines creation.

In essence the interaction of tooth, spacer and roll set up a “Sized Void” which in turn “Sizes” oversize material when feed through the machines rolls. Undersize material basically “free falls” through the unit with little or no further size reduction.

The actual rotating tip speed of the tooth or sizing element in a Sizer can be as low as 0.8 m per sec (primary applications) and no higher than 1.8 m per sec (tertiary & quaternary applications).
