CS Bell Number 10 Hammermill

Rebuilt CS Bell No. 10 Hammermill with VFD Upgrade

The CS Bell No. 10 Hammermill is a benchmark in American-made size reduction equipment, and this unit has been professionally rebuilt and modernized for maximum versatility. Renowned for its heavy-duty cast iron construction and longevity, this refurbished mill has been upgraded with a high-performance Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). This advanced electronic upgrade allows the machine to operate on both single-phase and three-phase power, making it compatible with residential workshops and industrial facilities alike.

The integrated VFD provides precise variable speed control, allowing operators to fine-tune the rotor RPM to meet the exact requirements of different materials. This capability is essential for achieving specific micron sizes and preventing the heat-related degradation of sensitive products. Whether you are pulverizing, crushing, or de-bearding, this unit delivers consistent particle size distribution across a vast range of applications.

Multi-Industry Applications and Keywords:

Agriculture and Grain Processing:

This unit excels as a feed grinder and seed de-bearder. It is ideal for cracking corn, grinding wheat, barley, rye, and oats, and processing livestock feed. The variable speed control allows for gentle seed thrashing and hulling without damaging the product.

Hemp, Cannabis, and Botanicals:

A top-tier choice for the botanical extraction industry. This mill provides the precision required for milling hemp flower, processing biomass, and grinding herbs or spices for essential oil extraction. It creates a consistent “tea cut” or fine powder while maintaining the integrity of terpenes and volatile oils through heat management.

Woodworking and Biomass:

Perfect for converting wood chips, planer shavings, and sawdust into wood flour or pellet fuel feedstock. It is an essential tool for bio-fuel production and biomass densification processes.

Recycling and Industrial Waste:

This hammermill serves as a rugged industrial shredder for glass cullet, plastic regrind, and electronic scrap. It is also highly effective for secure product destruction and recycling of organic waste for compost and soil amendments.

Laboratory and Pilot Plants:

The VFD upgrade makes this the ultimate laboratory mill for research and development. It allows for small-batch testing and repeatable results across various material densities and moisture contents.

Technical Features:

Power Compatibility: VFD-controlled for 220V Single-Phase or Three-Phase input.

Adjustable Speed: Variable RPM settings for precision milling and throughput control.

Heavy-Duty Build: Classic cast iron housing for vibration dampening and extreme durability.

Rebuilt Internals: Features balanced rotors and high-carbon steel four-way reversible hammers.

Screen Versatility: Compatible with a wide array of interchangeable screens for custom particle sizing.

Efficiency: Optimized for low energy consumption and high-torque performance.

This rebuilt CS Bell No. 10 Hammermill represents the perfect intersection of vintage durability and modern electronic control, engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the modern processing plant.
