US: Munson Machinery has released a new model, RDC-2424-MS, of its De-Clumper Rotary Lump Breaker. The product is recommended for breaking lumps in product flows of bulk materials such as cement powders, sodium or calcium carbonates, fertilisers and bulk chemicals of all types.
The manufacturer says that the compact, low profile design allows inline placement in restricted spaces between upstream and downstream processing, packaging or bulk storage equipment. With an optional feed hopper and support structure, it can also operate as a stand-alone unit. It is built with maintenance in mind. For example, bearings can be lubricated through external fittings and are isolated from the product processing area with air purged shaft seals. Suitable for industrial and chemical applications, it is also offered in 304/316 stainless steel and finished to sanitary standards for food, dairy, pharmaceutical or industrial applications.
