PP_Gericke.jpg The Nibbler size reduction system uses a cutting or grating action to reportedly produce consistently sized particles with virtually no heat or dust. It was developed to meet the demands of processors that require a method of size reduction that doesn?t generate fines or cause a rise in the temperature of the product. The Nibbler uses a low-speed?less than 100 ft/min?adjustable rotor assembly that pulls the material along a perforated steel plate.

The system is available in a range of sizes from an 8-by-8-inch model to large units capable of handling many tons per hour. The perforated grate comes in .04- to 1-inch sizes and can be removed and reinstalled without disturbing the flange connections or the rotor. The system is available in mild or stainless steel with various finishes.
