Key Features & Benefits

  • High crushing capacity

    Handles large carcasses, bones, viscera, and fat with stable performance.

  • Flexible blade & rotor design

    Interchangeable and adjustable blades for different raw materials, extending service life.

  • 304 stainless steel option

    Food-grade construction available for hygienic processing requirements.

  • Energy-efficient system

    Electric drive reduces power consumption while minimizing waste volume.

  • Uniform particle size

    Improves downstream drying, cooking, and oil separation efficiency.

  • Easy operation & maintenance

    Compact structure, user-friendly controls, and simplified servicing.

How It Works

Raw materials enter the crushing chamber through the feed hopper, where they are sheared and broken down by high-speed rotating blades. Particles smaller than the screen aperture pass through immediately, while larger pieces are recirculated by airflow back into the impact zone for repeated crushing.

This cycle ensures uniform particle size, stable torque control, and consistent output quality. The reduced material volume lowers transportation energy costs and decreases the mechanical load on screw conveyors and downstream equipment.

Technical Advantages



  • Enhanced Oil Yield Efficiency

    Crushing increases the total surface area, refines the structure of raw fat materials, accelerates moisture evaporation, and boosts rendering oil recovery.

  • Improved Heat Conduction

    Smaller particles allow heat to penetrate more quickly and evenly, accelerating drying and thermal processing.

  • Uniform Drying

    Consistent particle size prevents uneven moisture content, avoiding incomplete or excessive drying, and ensuring balanced rendering.

  • Cost Reduction

    Faster drying and lower energy consumption shorten processing time and reduce overall operating costs.

  • Environmental Benefits

    Efficient crushing minimizes waste bulk, supporting green production and resource utilization.

Applications in Animal Rendering Pre-Crusher

Installed at the start of the rendering line, the pre-crusher:

  1. Reduces raw material size to improve heat transfer and drying speed.
  2. Protects cookers, dryers, and separators from overload.
  3. Ensures stable flow and uniform processing for higher end-product quality.

Process Flow:Raw Material → Pre-Crusher → Cooker / Dryer → Separator → Fat / Meal

What materials can it handle?
Whole carcasses (pigs, cattle, sheep), bones, offal, viscera, and fat by-products.
What's the difference between single-shaft and double-shaft?
Single-shaft is suitable for moderate throughput; double-shaft ensures balanced crushing and is ideal for large carcasses.
How is maintenance performed?
Routine inspection of blades, lubrication of bearings, and timely replacement of wear parts. Adjustments to motor power and material configuration can be made based on particle size needs.
