A breaker reduces large chunks, lumps, and agglomerates into smaller pieces. Dinnissen breakers are robust and achieve high capacities with low energy consumption. From 100 kg to 80 tons per hour, with finenesses ranging from 150 microns to 10 mm.
Process:
Milling & GrindingA breaker reduces products according to the rotor/stator principle; with ridges on a central shaft in combination with stator combs mounted in the housing. The low rotational speed makes it possible to achieve high capacities at low energy consumption. From 100 kg to 80 tons per hour, with finenesses from 150 microns to 10 mm.
A breaker can be used for large, hard materials and is also suitable for elastic and tough materials with a fibrous structure. The product that can be delivered can vary from smaller chunks to grains of several millimeters and dust particles with a diameter of 0.3 microns. Dinnissen breakers have been used successfully for decades by producers in various sectors such as food, infant food, feed, pet food, chemicals, minerals, and recycling.
Given the wide variety of clients, countries, and applications, Dinnissen offers you a great deal of expertise in breaking to exactly the desired specifications. Our breakers are the result of many years of further development to make them even more efficient, productive, hygienic, dust-proof, reliable, and energy-efficient. All our breakers are designed as follows:
The directly driven machines are extra robust and therefore extremely suitable for breaking soft to medium-hard lumps, clods, and agglomerates. Because of the low heat generation, our breakers are excellent at reducing moist and greasy products, such as cocoa cake, filter cake, and cinnamon sticks. The fineness range is between 10 mm and 150 microns. Depending on the desired final fineness, different rotor versions are available, with capacities up to 80 tons/hour. Of course, this capacity depends on the product and the desired fineness.
For applications in the fine range, the rotor is placed above a sifting section. The broken/ground material is rotated over the sifter to further reduce the product. The sifting section is optionally removable thanks to an easily accessible sliding drawer. The rotor has no hollow spaces and is mounted on one side, allowing it to be moved out of the housing via a guide rod for easy cleaning and inspection.
Dinnissen shredders are also available as EHEDG versions, optimized for hygiene and food safety. For the food industry and infant food, our shredders are made entirely of stainless steel, including a very high-quality finish.
The operation of the crusher is based on the rotor/stator principle and impulse forces. The product is reduced by ridges on a central shaft, in combination with stator combs mounted in the housing. The low rotational speed of the crusher makes it possible to process relatively large amounts of material at low energy consumption. Due to the low heat generation, it is also possible to shred moist and greasy products (e.g. raw materials for the food industry) without any problems. For applications requiring the generation of fine powders, a sifting system consisting of several sifters is mounted under the rotor.

No challenge is too big
At Dinnissen, they think in terms of challenges, not problems. They don't give up and keep going until there is a solution that satisfies all parties.
Martin Sonneveld- Production Director - United Petfood Waalwijk
Flexibility, cleaning, short mixing time, and a homogeneous end product
We also considered other options but on the points we considered most important - flexibility, cleaning, short mixing time, and a homogeneous end product - Dinnissen scored best.
Sam Dimassi- Owner - Nutri-Dynamics
Collaboration based on mutual respect
Our collaboration with Dinnissen is based on mutual respect and trust. We challenge each other to continuously innovate and improve
Stefan Kuijpers- Director - Vitelia
The importance of hygiene and safety requirements
Dinnissen fully understood the importance of hygiene and safety requirements in our industry. They went the extra mile by providing us with all the necessary documentation, all ATEX drawings, and full traceability.
Anton Vleeshouwers- Project Director - DSM
World player in process technology
To realize production processes of the best quality, we work closely with Dinnissen: One of the strongest players in the world in process technology and hygienic design.

Mixing time of 60 seconds per batch
Previously, we had standard times in the mixing process of 14 - 15 minutes. With the Pegasus® mixer we achieve a mixing time of 60 seconds per batch.
Lothar Pixa- Director - Planta
Filled three complete factories
Dinnissen has filled an entire factory for us with a complete production line, on three different occasions. They just get it right: from mixers and sifters to sampling and automation.
Erik Schut- Managing Director - Jonker & Schut
Didn't consider any other option than Dinnissen
When the mixers needed replacement and Dinnissen could do a one-on-one replacement, we really didn't consider any other option than Dinnissen.
Elmar Flach- Technical Specialist - Voergroep Zuid
Unique in preliminary work
What really makes Dinnissen unique, is the preliminary work. You can literally count every bolt and nut in the drawing.
