Williams manufactures a large variety of Hammer Mills
to handle virtually any size reduction job. These rugged
machines provide the efficiencies and economies of
mid-air impact crushing, grinding, or shredding of diverse
materials. They are designed to operate on an 8000
hours-per-year basis and should not be compared to the
lighter version of this type of equipment made by other
companies.
HAMMER MILLS
Rigid Arm Breaker
Williams GP, or General Purpose Mill is a simple, rugged answer to
many small and medium capacity grinding jobs.
Rocket Mills are designed for the rapid reduction of large quantities of
non-abrasive materials.
Meteor Mills are characterized by high hammer-tip speed to permit a
fine product or to obtain specific characteristics in the finished product.
Slugger Crushers have large feed openings and massive construction
for the big, continuous jobs, either in hourly output or reduction ratio.
NF and GA Mills are “overrunning” machines where the material is reduced on the breaker plates before being further reduced on the grates.
Ring Crushers are specially designed to reduce the size and volume of
metal turnings, “bushelings”, or “clips” through efficient impact crushing.
Swing hammers can be substituted for the rings when needed.
Traveling Breaker Plates are designed to permit a Slugger Crusher to
reduce sticky muddy rock, clay, shale, or bauxite without clogging.
Traveling Breaker
Plate Mill
Williams Reversible Mills have hammers that can be automatically
turned, simply by pushbutton reversal of the drive motor. Production is
increased, hammer life is doubled, and maintenance is reduced.
Rigid Arm Breakers are essentially mills in which the hammers are
rigid, rather than swing-mounted, for use in paper industries.

ROLLER MILLS
Williams produces 18 different sizes of Roller Mills with
varying capacities utilizing air classification and grinding.
They are used in industries for pulverizing minerals,
chemicals, pigments, tobacco, and coal. Roller Mills are
very efficient grinders capable of handling a variety of
abrasive materials and producing product sizes from 60
mesh to 600 mesh. All Williams Roller Mills are custom
designed for each application. They can also be very
efficient dryers with the addition of an air heater.
Standard Roller Mills are perfect for fine grinding applications requiring
efficient drying, air classification, and conveying the material in one
simple process. We also offer four different types of Air Classifiers to
compliment our Standard Roller Mills: Spinner, High Efficiency Turbine,
Isokinetic, and Velocity Separators.
Direct Fired Roller Mills are the same as our Standard Roller Mills,
but the construction is more robust to withstand 50 PSI or greater
applications. These units are very efficient in grinding and pulverizing
coal and petroleum coke for direct firing into boilers and kilns. They are
also good for grinding other types of materials such as clays or lignites.
DFM Roller Mills are specially designed to crush limestone and to
produce 18 x 200 mesh sorbent media for Fluid Bed Boilers. They are
designed to handle positive and negative pressures of over 100 inches
water column.

Impact Dryer Mills are very much like Roller Mills except
the primary crushing unit is a Hammer Mill. These are
used when crushing, grinding, air classifying, and drying,
or thermal processing is required in the application. They
also are custom designed for each application and are
used in a wide variety of industries such as drying filter
cake medium, clays, coal, gypsum, and other soft
materials including pigments, and can produce products
between 8 and 325 mesh.

SHREDDERS
Williams produces a variety of specialty
shredders for different industries.
Ripshear Shredders are slow speed, high torque
shear type cutters that can reduce solid waste, steel,
and tires in a quiet, clean, and economical way with
minimum dust produced.
Electric
Ripshear Shredder
Nife Hogs are heavy duty, high performance
knife granulators, designed to act as a secondary
shredder in conjuniction with primary shredders.
They are capable of reducing tires, carpet, plastic,
liners, and other types of material to a nominal
1/2 inch product.
Nife Hog
Rigid Arm Shredders describe a wide variety of
heavy industrial shredders capable of reducing
large volumes of waste material and shredding it
to a nominal 2 inches for the sake of baling or
continuing of fiberization.

ROLL CRUSHERS
Williams manfactures a wide selection of both
Single and Double Roll Crushers.
Single Roll Crushers are simple in design and heavy in
construction. They are built to be long lasting, economical,
and versitile. Single Roll Crushers are usually used in
processing a variety of materials from a nominal 24 inches
down to a nominal minus 1 inch output product.
Double Roll Crushers are large, high precision crushing
units capable of controlling the output product at a very
consistant rate. The Williams patented adjustment roll
design (U.S. Patent #6,685,118) allows for changing
the roll gap on a very small incremental basis. This
adjustment can be made manually while the unit is running
or connected to a servo motor.

AIR CLASSIFICATION
Williams manufactures a complete line of Air Classifiers that
can be integrated with air swept mills or stand-alone de-dusting
operations.
Mechanical Air Separators have a built-in air system and are perfect for
de-dusting minerals or used where materials that may have heavy or light
contaminants in the product.
Spinner Separators are simple air classifiers incorporated into an existing air
system or an air swept mill. This allows precise control of the top size as
it leaves the air column.
High Efficiency Turbine Separators are also used with air swept mills where
efficiency and ultra fineness are a consideration.
Isokinetic Separators are used when trying to produce a product that is very
steep on the product curve such as fluid bed sorbent products.
Velocity Separators are the simplest in design and are utilized in processes
where sizing does not have to be so exact.

Turbine Separator
Mechanical Air Separator
Williams produces a variety of equipment for the wood
industry, including paper, pulp, and recycling. We also
manufacture a wide line of different types of crushers to
facilitate recycling or handling of fuel-based products.
WOOD PRODUCTS
No-Nife Hogs We manufacture a wide variety of these heavy duty mills.
They are used in processing wet bark or dry kiln lumber to make either
fuel for boilers or for recycling into other products.
Rotary Disc Screens are used primarily in the bark and wood industries
for high speed separation of oversized and undersized components and
have also been used in the municipal solid fuel waste and coal industries.
They are frequently used as a feeder and separator at the same time,
allowing the bypass of presized material around the primary crushers.
Nife Chippers are slow speed, high torque grinders with a hydraulic
operated ram type feeder. These units are primarily used in low
capacity “dump-and-run” type operations where wood waste or
other types of materials need to be reduced or destroyed for
increasing bulk density or recycling at a later date.
Horizontal Feed Hogs are side entry horizontal feed Hammer
Mills and are available with power roll attachments. These mills
are used for wood waste that tends to be long and stringy and/or
where ceiling heights create feeding limitations.

and for long service life under severe loads.
Williams Apron Pan Feeders are the heaviest duty apron
pan feeders on the market today, utilizing 1-1/2 inch thick
manganese plates bolted to D-9 type crawler chains
with large head and pulley assemblies. This produces
a superior type conveyor for either pulling material out of
a bunker or loading it directly on from trucks or shovels.
These are custom built to suit the customer and
give excellent service with minimum maintenance.
Apron Steel Pan Conveyors are piano-hinge type
conveyors for the solid waste and related industries.
These pans are designed to articulate in both
directions and are built out of heavy plate steel with
large greaseable rollers and come in 12, 9, and 6 inch pitch.
