From grain to feed

Hammer Mill 1200

The Ottevanger Hammer Mill 1200 is a high efficiency grinder for consistent particle size reduction in feed production. Adjustable breaker plates create an asymmetrical chamber for higher impact, smoother flow, and reduced screen wear. Dual rotation, automatic load control with an Ottevanger feeder, and a shock absorbing base with balanced rotor ensure reliable, low vibration operation in continuous duty plants.

  • Heavy base frame with shock absorbers
  • Precisely balanced rotor for low vibration
  • Compatible with automatic load control

FAQ

It allows the hammer wear pattern to be balanced and the breaker plates to be repositioned, extending screen and hammer life while maintaining consistent grinding performance.

By setting the plates in two positions you create an asymmetrical chamber that increases impact intensity and improves product flow, reducing screen load and wear.

Yes. Combined with an Ottevanger feeder, the drive load can be controlled automatically to keep the mill at its optimal operating point.

Use the eight-row execution for fine grinding and high-quality pet and aqua feed where tighter particle-size control and higher tip frequency are required.

A heavy base with shock absorbers, a precisely balanced rotor, and options like an automatic screen changer provide quick access and stable running, shortening change-over and service intervals.
