Nibbler This lump breaker from Gericke USA employs a low-speed, high-torque rotating paddle assembly to efficiently and reliably reduce materials to particles as small as 1mm. The Nibbler can be used to break down agglomerates that have formed in dry material such as powders or other additives for plastic recycling held in storage or in bulk bags and containers. It can also reduce plastic scrap and off-spec products to particle sizes suitable for reprocessing.
What’s new? The GNB version of the Nibbler, which makes it easy for operators to adjust the space between the cutting screen and paddles by as much as 9mm, quickly and without tools.
Benefits Fast cleaning. The breaker’s housing and machinery have been designed for durability while maintaining a compact footprint. The GNB comes in stainless steel as standard and is available in high-temperature, process safety and ATEX-compliant models. Gericke’s RotaSafe system, which automatically shuts down power to the drive motor when metal-to metal-contact is detected, is available as an option.
