Tietjen introduced a new grinding solution for the feed industry. The Crusher CR is a versatile machine for coarse crushing of bulk materials. It is suitable, for example, for crushing agglomerates or for pre-crushing coarse pieces of material for further grinding.  

Many fish feed recipes contain coarse and hard ingredients such as peas or beans, which can damage the screens of the hammer mill. The grain size requirements of the fish feed call for very fine and thus also thin and mechanically sensitive sieves for grinding. Pre-grinding with the Crusher CR reliably protects these sieves and thus ensures consistent product quality and less downtime and wear costs. 

The housing is particularly robust and has a replaceable impact plate made of Hardox. The rotor is equipped with beaters made of Hardox, distributed over three axles, and mounted on both sides. The machine is driven by a side-mounted three-phase motor via a belt drive. The machine can be set up as a stand-alone unit or integrated directly onto the hammer mill before feeding.
