Sugar lump breaker feeding auger

For a juice factory we manufactured a 9m-long stainless steel auger (screw conveyor) for sugar. Sugar was fed to the plant either in 25-kg sacks or in Bulk-Bags. Since sugar contains agglomerates we designed and manufactured a lump breaker to crush the agglomerates at a low rotating speed of 20 rpm before entering the auger.
