Here’s a simplified diagram of a typical hammer mill machine with labeled components:

*(Top View / Cross-Sectional View)*

1. Hopper (Feed Inlet)
– Where raw material enters the mill.
2. Rotor Assembly
– Central rotating shaft with hammers attached.
3. Hammers (Swinging or Fixed)
– Blades that strike and shred the material.
4. Screen (Perforated Sieve)
– Determines final particle size; material exits once small enough.
5. Grinding Chamber
– Enclosed space where hammering occurs.
6. Discharge Outlet
– Processed material exits here (e.g., to a cyclone or bag).
7. Drive Motor & Pulley System
Powers the rotor at high speed (typically 1,500–3,000 RPM).

Key Features:
– Material Flow: Feed → Hammer impact → Screen filtration → Discharge.
– Particle Control: Screen hole size adjusts fineness.

Notes:
– Hammers pivot or are fixed to the rotor for impact grinding.
– Air assist may be used for material evacuation in some models.
