Improvement on the Design,Construction and Testing of Hammer Mill

Profile image of ajer  research

This paper presents the result of work carried out in improving the design, construction and testing of hammer mill by addressing some lapses associated with the design and construction of the existing ones. These improvement involves redesigning and construction of the hammer mill beater, hammer mill chamber, redesigning and construction of the hammer mill shaft, incorporating a gasoline engine directly to the hammer mill beater thereby providing the means of varying the speed of the hammer mill, replacement of the electric motor with a gasoline engine and (multi-functionality of the improved machine in processing many grains such as maize, millet, guinea corn and even dried cassava.

Crushers are needed in several industries for the purpose of size reduction. They are invaluable machines in laboratories (higher institutions and research centres), mining and construction industries. Available crushers are imported and very expensive. This has pushed some workers around the country to crush stones with crude materials and manual labour, to meet the demand of the various sectors while neglecting the hazards involved. A hammer mill has been designed with due considerations to standard design requirements, local content and cost. The power required to crush granite with the desired through put of 400kg/h was found to be 5,480W. Major factors considered for the material selection are the mechanical properties, wear of materials, fabrication requirement and cost. The machine was fabricated with locally available materials and tested. The actual capacity was found to be 301 kg/h after the performance evaluation of the machine, and through-put efficiency was found to be 75.4 %. The crushed products were well graded with 1.89 coefficient of gradation and uniformity coefficient of 10.22. The machine was produced at a cost of two hundred and forty five thousand, two hundred naira (₦245,200.00 {US$817.33}).

This research designed, fabricated and tested a direct drive electric powered hammer mill machine. A 3 HP electric motor with speed of 1800 rpm was used to power the mill. The fundamentals of machine design, mechanics of machine and basic workshop technology were applied in manufacturing the mill. The calculated design values for maximum centrifugal force of the beaters mounted on the rotor and the maximum machine shaft diameter of the mill are 27 KN and 12 mm respectively. The working principle of the mill is based on repeated combined hammers (beaters) impacts and collisions of the materials being milled with the housing of the milling compartment. Tests were carried out on the mill using dry maize, dry millet, dry stock fish and the combination of dry maize, dry millet and dry stock fish as samples to determine the mill productivity and milling efficiency. In determining the productivity and milling efficiency of the mill, the initial masses of the samples were made equal. The d...

FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY MlNNA, NIGERIA. THESIS

Crushers are needed in a lot of industries for the sole purpose of size reduction. They are invaluable machines in laboratories (whether for institutions, government or private owned), mining and construction industries. Locally available machineries that are effective and affordable are very scarce. This has pushed some workers around the country to crush stone using crude materials and manual labour, neglecting the hazards involved so as to meet the demand of the various sectors. A hammer mill has been designed with due considerations to standard design requirements and cost to cater to this need. The power required to deliver the through put efficiency of the machine was determined to be 5,480W. The rotor speed is obtained as 1289.1 rpm. The major factors considered for the material selection are the mechanical properties, wear of materials, environmental properties, fabrication properties and cost. The actual capacity was obtained to be 301 kg/h after the performance evaluation of the machine, and it has a 98 % material recovery rate and 75.25 % machine efficiency. The machine has a production cost of ₦245,200.
