Automatic Screening and Grinding of Wastewater Solids

The Dimminutor® Turbo model  from Franklin Miller (USA) provides effective, automatic screening and grinding of wastewater solids in straight through channels and wet wells. This powerful unit reduces plastics, wood, rags and other solids to fine bits, enhancing plant operation and improving the reliability of pumps and other downstream equipment.

The Dimminutor employs a smooth, continuously rotating design with high torque. As its three bidirectional rotary cutters intermesh at close clearance with stationary cutters, solids are finely reduced to a size small enough to pass through a new ultra-precision sizing screen. With no gaps or openings between the screen and cutters, output is controlled and complete reduction assured. The Turbo also features added power with faster sweeping and clearing action.

The Dimminutor has an intrinsically open design to handle high flow rates with low head-loss. This unit is extremely easy to maintain and features individually replaceable cutters, oil lubrication and a simple rotary design requiring no auxiliary diverter screens. A unique, cantilevered design eliminates seals or bearings near the gritty channel floor. Every component of the unit is constructed for precision and long life.
