Hygroscopic material lump breaker
Ensure seamless processing by breaking down compacted or hygroscopic powders efficiently, preventing clumping and safeguarding product quality across various production lines.

Breaks and Smooths Powder Clumps
The AGR-BREAKER from Agierre is a robust stainless steel circular lump breaker designed for efficient clump reduction in industrial powder processing. This machine utilizes rotating steel blades within a circular housing to fracture clumps, enhancing material flow for improved processing efficiency. Ideal for use in pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, it tackles challenges with compacting and hygroscopic powders, facilitating the production of uniform end-products such as active pharmaceutical ingredients and food additives. Equipped with a motor-driven operation, it seamlessly integrates into existing lines, fitting beneath bag or drum emptying systems with ease. Inductive sensors ensure safe operation, allowing the machine to start only with proper configuration. Built to comply with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and optionally for ATEX zones, the AGR-BREAKER accommodates rigorous industrial standards. Maintenance is streamlined with its self-cleaning design and compact footprint, offering a reliable solution for uninterrupted production. Custom features, such as reinforced entry for materials requiring more force, enhance versatility across diverse processing needs.
