Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0873791A2] A rotor for shredders and hammermills includes a rotor body having an outer cylindrical surface extending along an axis, a plurality of axially spaced concavities (64) defined on the outer cylindrical surface and a hammer (13) supported within each concavity. The outer cylindrical surface has a convex surface (72) radially extending at least ninety degrees about the axis. Each concavity (64) is radially offset from an adjacent concavity. The outer cylindrical surface is preferably protected by a liner system comprising a plurality of individual wear caps (88) mating end-to-end and side-by-side about the outer convex surface of the rotor, each wear cap being reversible and interchangeable.
