Ajax Equipment mobile lump breaker for Vickers Laboratories



Hedgehog Lump Breaker Blades Mobile Lump Breaker and Sack Tip Station
Solids handling equipment maker, Ajax Equipment, has supplied leading chemical manufacturer, Vickers Laboratories, with a mobile lump breaker with combined sack-tip. The system allows sacks of caked pharmaceutical powders to be safely opened and efficiently reduced to a consistent particle size.

Ajax’s sack-tip and lump breaker system design provides its operators with an ergonomic way of handling sacks as well as a contained method of opening them. While the pharmaceutical grade, stainless steel finish and mobile frame allows the station to be removed from the production line and fully washed down.

“Since installation and integration of the Ajax lump breaker into our salt processing line production has increased by at least four times. In addition, process noise has been reduced to acceptable levels and operator satisfaction greatly improved,” said John Kirkham, Quality and H&S manager at Vickers Laboratories.

Lewis Shaw, technical sales engineer, Ajax Equipment, commented, “After discussing the improvements to material processing Vickers Laboratories wanted to achieve, lump breaker trials were conducted by Ajax to help inform the design of the machine. From this, and the size of the lumps to be input, we devised that a LynFlow™ blade design should be used. The blade’s hedgehog-like profile is specially designed to initiate multiple failure cracks when impacting lumps of material at speed.”
