We received an inquiry from Colombia. They need to process wet oil palm fiber. Oil palm fiber is a typical high‑moisture stringy biomass waste with original length around 150 mm and moisture content reaching up to 40%. The customer requires the processing capacity 15 t/h. It is challenging to shred into consistent 30–50 mm fuel particles for reciprocating inclined‑grate steam boilers. Conventional shredders often suffer from wrapping, clogging and unstable output size.
GEP ECOTECH GXB Series Biomass Fine Shredder (also called hammer mill grinder) is purpose‑built for tough biomass like oil palm fiber, delivering discharge size under 50 mm to perfectly match boiler fuel requirements.
The GXB series hammer mill is specifically designed for the fine shredding of biomass and solid materials. It features a large-diameter rotor structure, combining high linear velocity and high rotational inertia. Coupled with a high-speed rotating blade assembly, it applies powerful cutting and striking forces to the material, achieving rapid shredding;
Machine Advantages:
✅ 1. The large-diameter rotor and three-in-one integrated blade assembly, with a forward-shifted center of gravity enhancing shredding force and reducing maintenance, impacts, shears, and shreds materials, achieving highly efficient shredding operations.
When replacing the screen mesh, only the mesh sheet needs to be replaced, and the replacement cost is low. The screen assembly supports one-click hydraulic activation, enabling efficient and convenient maintenance of the rotor, reducing manual maintenance time and costs, and enhancing production efficiency.
✅ 2. A large-area screen covers 2/3 of the rotor circumference, ensuring high screening efficiency and allowing for flexible gap adjustment. It is widely used in coupled power generation, fermentation pretreatment, briquette fuel preparation, and direct-fired power generation.
✅ 3. Imported high-speed bearings provide strong load-bearing capacity and excellent heat dissipation; combined with thin oil lubrication, they offer real-time lubrication and cooling, featuring a rational structural design and ease of maintenance.
✅ 4. The double-door design on both sides facilitates quick and easy replacement of the screen and blades; it also facilitates rotor maintenance, improving repair efficiency.
