Robust, efficient and consistent grinding with a gravity fed SKIOLD's DM6 Hammer Mill. Engineered for high-capacity size reduction of a wide range of materials, from grains and feedstuffs for feed or use as biomass.

SKIOLD ‘Gravity’ Hammer Mills allow raw material to fall throught the inlet into the grinding chamber. Here it is hit by the rotating hammers and thrown against the screen till reduced to a size that allows it to pass through the chosen hole size dimension .  The SKIOLD DM range uses a traditional system with an inlet magnet, flail rotor with hammers and interchangeable screen sizes ranging from 1.0 – 16mm.

Options include standard or woven type screens, multi inlet hoppers, and a range of outlets to suit augers or conveyors.

Wearing components are easily replaced by original SKIOLD parts - durability that will ensure servicing is kept to a minimum.

 Unique Features:

  • Material falls through the grinding chamber and discharged by gravity, ensuring consistent flow and minimises blockages.
  • Hardened and wear-resistant hammers designed for efficient impact and long service life.
  • Easily interchangeable screens with a range of perforation sizes allow for precise control over the final particle size.
  • Robust Construction: Built with heavy-duty steel, the mills are designed for continuous operation and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
  • Easy Maintenance: Designed with accessibility in mind so screen and hammer changes are straightforward and quick, minimizing downtime.

Advantages and Benefits

Uses the force of rapidly rotating hammers to shatter and grind material against a screen. This impact-based grinding makes hammer mills particularly effective for:

  • High Capacity: The gravity discharge system and efficient hammer design enable high throughput rates, increasing your production efficiency.
  • Consistent Particle Size: The combination of hammer action and screen selection ensures a uniform and predictable particle size distribution.
  • Versatile Application: Capable of processing a wide variety of dry materials.
  • Efficient grinding action and gravity discharge contribute to lower energy costs compared to less optimized systems.
  • Reduced Dust Emission: The enclosed design and efficient material flow help minimize dust generation in the workplace.
  • Long Service Life: High-quality components and robust construction ensure years of reliable operation.
  • Minimized Maintenance Costs: Durable components and easy access for maintenance reduce downtime and upkeep expenses.
  • Fibrous Materials: The high-impact force can effectively break down tough, fibrous materials that might be challenging for other mill types.
  • Brittle Materials: Hammer mills excel at reducing brittle materials to a fine powder.
  • Variable Material Sizes: They can handle a wider range of input particle sizes compared to some other mill types.
  • Milling of dry grains, pellets and pulses

Milling with a DM6

Although screen size is important in determining the texture of milled feed, the characteristics of the raw ingredients are also crucial. For instance, the softer nature of wheat allows it to be ground to a much finer consistency than barley when the same screen is used. The amount of moisture in the grain also affects final particle size, with higher moisture leading to a coarser texture.

Two models available DM-G for grain and DM6W for ‘wet’ Maize (40% moisture)

  • Motors from 11 kW to 30 kW
  • Output up to 4000 Kgs per hour
  • Simple and reliable construction
