Jeffrey Rader - Model ABE Easy Access -Hammermills

Unmatched versatility
You can use Type AB/ABE hammermills in a wide variety of applications. The type of material you are reducing determines the rotor configuration, and the product size you desire determines the screen bar arrangement. For pulverizing friable materials such as limestone, Jeffrey Rader hammermills come with rectangular swing hammers. For shredding materials such as waste paper, fiberglass mats, or rubber–or when the application requires the machine to run at slow speed–choose rigid hammers.
 
EZ Access Hammermill Technology
ABE hammermills have been redesigned with Jeffrey Rader’s exclusive EZ Access technology, which allows safe, fast, and easy access to the hammers, rotor and liners. Now maintenance operators can safely and quickly clear plugged chutes to minimize downtime and perform routine maintenance with more safety and ease. The new EZ Access technology also lets operators remove the machine’s rotor without removing the feed chute.
 
Hammermill Screen Grates
Jeffrey Rader fabricated screen grates, racks & bars and perforated plate is designed to provide the greatest amount of free open area, allowing the machine to obtain the highest capacity while accurately sizing the material to the specified size. Our screen grates are made of abrasion resistant materials, but can be supplied with other materials depending on the application and sizing requirements. Our SLANT-FLOW® grates are unique to our hammermills. Unlike conventional screen sections, the SLANT-FLOW design is angled into the flow of the material being shredded. This gives more shredding action and allows the material to evacuate faster. The result is less wear on the grates and hammers, and a more uniform product size.
 
Heavy-duty Hammermill Rotor Design
Our disc-type rotor is assembled on a high strength, alloy-steel shaft and is mounted in selfaligning spherical roller bearings in rugged steel housings. Rotor discs allow maximum flexibility of hammer arrangements. Jeffrey Rader rotors can setup with three, four, or six rows of hammers for premium efficiency when shredding to a smaller product size.
 
Hydraulic Bearing Removal
To substantially reduce maintenance time, the rotor shaft is drilled for the hydraulic removal of the bearings.This ensures quick bearing removal without damaging the shaft.
 
Durable Hammer Designs
Our hammers are manufactured from our ULTRALLOY® material to provide the ultimate in performance, long life and low operating costs. The hammers are hard throughout, yet still have the ductility and toughness to withstand high-impact conditions. Where the application requires we have both harder and softer materials to provide the optimal performance and life in the hammers while keeping operating costs to a minimum. In addition to our current material offerings, we are constantly looking at new alloys to improve overall equipment performance.

Our hammers also are available in a variety of shapes from a standard bar hammer to a sixpoint rigid hammer. The hammer design is based on the application and when combined with the appropriate material will ensure the machine is operating at its maximum efficiency.
 
Steel Housing
Rolled-steel, structurally reinforced housings ensure long-lasting durability. When properly maintained, the hammermill’s fully-lined interior prevents the housing from wearing on the inside. Doors on the upper housing provide access to the metal trap and the interior of the machine.
 
Hammermill Liners
All liners are manufactured from thick abrasion-resistant steel plate to protect against high impacts and normal wear. Liners are drilled, tapped, and bolted from the outside to eliminate bolt heads on the inside where they can wear and break off.
 
Extended Lower Housing
Lower housing is extended to provide 180° of screen grate area. The extensive screen area reduces operating costs by allowing more open area in the machine, and it effectively discharges the material without causing a re-circulating load. Plus, the instances of plugging (from wet material) are greatly reduced.
 
Tramp Metal Protection
Every Jeffrey Rader hammermill has an integral metal trap that effectively collects the odd pieces of smaller tramp metal which can damage your machine. The tramp metal pocket is located in the back of the machine. As tramp metal enters the hammer circle, the hammers lay back and carry the material around to and place it in the metal trap.
