The Ludman Roll Compactor is designed to give you an economical, high volume, mechanical means to upgrade or convert fines by agglomeration into salable granular product. Our Roll Compactor is also used for agglomeration of fines into flakes for pyroprocessing or briquettes, increasing bulk density and controlling the product solubility rate.
Smooth, corrugated or pocketed rolls exert high pressures on fines passing between them. A solid ribbon or briquette product results with new characteristics of strength that can be processed or granulated to a desired finished product or granule size.
The Ludman Flaking Mill has heavy-duty & sturdy construction, designed to provide the high flaking pressure demanded for diverse materials. Roll journals are machined to fit heavy-duty bearings, which assure proper roll alignment.
A set of two smooth-finished rolls, driven in counter-rotating directions, exerts force on relatively compressible feed materials to provide flattened flakes with the greatest possible particle surface. Material is rolled to uniform thickness and weight, and immediately available for further processing.
Ludman Roll Crushers, commonly referred to as Granulators, offer the latest technology, design, reliability and superior performance. These precision-grade mills efficiently and consistently produce on-size product, much better than chain mills, hammer mills, and cage mills.
Ludman Granulators are designed for gradual size reduction, and therefore, they can be built in one, two, three or even four stages per unit, depending upon the ratio of feed size desired as finished product.
Ludman Industries supports all Allis-Chalmers and Ludman machines in the field with replacement OEM parts. We retain complete records and control all of the important specifications including material, hardness, and best methodology.
In addition, Ludman Industries provides manufacturing and support for tooling customers, especially those specializing in the metal recycling industry in scrap presses.
Ludman Industries' large format Briquette Roll Press is a rugged machine, designed specifically for briquetting operations that require high pressures. Ludman has produced briquetting machines for over 40 years and has the capability to design, develop and manufacture the equipment to meet your specific needs. Ludman builds proven designs with robust construction and offers dependable, adaptable designs for your application.
Through innovative design and unmatched quality of workmanship, the Ludman Flake Lump Breaker is a ruggedly-designed machine capable of accepting diverse material and breaking it into a size that is acceptable for further controlled particle size reduction, or to create smaller sized material for another process. These machines typically are employed in compaction circuits.
