Combines robust construction with innovation to improve
your extraction.
The FIVES CAIL shredder is designed to obtain a maximum
proportion of open cells while preserving the cane's handling characteristics
with a high percentage of long fibres.
Increases sugar extraction from the cane
in crushing or in diffusion cells.
Easily installed on the existing conveyor
systems.
Flexible operation and reduced maintenance
requirement.
High preparation index (over 90 %).
Capacity up to 550 tons/hour.
Reduced energy consumption (steam or electricity).
Solid design.
Not sensitive to stones.
Allows a reduction of cane preparation
equipment (eliminates the cane cutters, in particular).
CANE
FEED TABLE
Reduced maintenance requirement.
Accepts any kind of offloading system.
Solid design.
Feed tables of the slat type, drag type,
or a combination of both according to the specific cane being handled.
Flexible operation, processes long stick
or chopped cane.
SLAT-TYPE
CANE CONVEYOR
A cane conveyor equipped with large rollers
and external bearings.
Solid design.
Reduced maintenance requirement.
The large-diameter rollers require less
traction effort and are not susceptible to blockage by cane fragments.
BELT-TYPE
CANE CONVEYOR
High speed conveyor.
Allows optimum feed to the first crusher.
Reduced maintenance requirement.
Solid design.
Allows metal objects to be extracted by
an electro-magnet.
CANE
CUTTER
Reduced maintenance requirement.
Adaptable number of blades.
Reduced energy consumption.
Solid design.
Three different kinds are available according
to the application: leveller,
primary cane knife, and final cane knife.
FLETCHER-SMITH/TONGAAT
HULETT HEAVY DUTY SHREDDER
The unit has been designed by operating
mill engineers to meet a demanding performance requirement.
The FS/TH heavy duty shredder comprises
a robust fabrication with a patented rotor having
overlapping swing hammers providing complete coverage
of the shredder width.
The FS/TH shredder ruptures a high percentage
of sucrose bearing cells in the cane and simultaneously
presents the raw material to the extraction plant
in long fibre particles.
Increases sugar
extraction from either conventional crushing
mills or a diffuser.
High preparation
index (90 % plus consistently).
Efficient energy
consumption (steam or electricity).
Robust fabricated design.
Flexible operation
and excellent feeding characteristics.
High mechanical
reliability assisted by magnetic iron separator
on conveyor belt feeding shredder.
Excellent fibre particle distribution.
Higher bagasse densities.
Improved final bagasse
moistures and polarisation.
Adjustable anvil plate limits over load conditions.
FLETCHER SMITH PREPARATOR
The Fletcher Smith preparator has been developed
as an intermediate solution between simple knifing and heavy
duty shredding.
The unit is designed to
replace a heavy duty knife set and can be installed on existing
cane handling systems with minimum modifications.
Operating as a contra rotating
knife set with an independently driven
feeder drum and adjustable anvil, the
unit combines a knifing and shredding
action to provide a high efficiency preparation.
High preparation
index (up to 85% by SMRI method).
Cost effective solution
to increased preparation efficiency.
