The Gericke Nibbler, distributed throughout North America by Powder Technologies (PTI), offers the combination of integrated paddles and 
suitable screens to reduce lumps and agglomerates to the desired size needed for the process. Similar to a centrifugal sifter or mill, the Nibbler offers significantly higher torque and force while maintaining a paddle circumferential speed of less than 1m/s. As a result, no dusts or fines are formed, allowing the Nibbler to function effectively in hazardous areas. Products pass vertically from the top of the machine to the bottom and the rotating paddles force the product through the hole in the screen until the desired size granule is achieved. The screen can be pulled out of the machine for easy cleaning, and automatic clean-in-place applications flood and wash the unit perfectly. The Nibbler is suitable to many applications working with raw products such as urea/carbamide/carbonyl diamide, instant breakfast drinks, sugar, plastic chips, disulphide, epoxy resin and magnesium fluoride to name a few.
