Schutte-Buffalo opens test lab

Buffalo, New York-based size reduction equipment manufacturer Schutte- Buffalo has opened its newly constructed test facility.

The new lab, featuring a dual-shaft industrial shredder, pneumatic discharge hammer mill and laboratory scale gravity discharge hammer mill, is able to determine the size reduction capabilities of a wide array of materials in the agricultural products, bulk solids, recycling and wood processing industries, according to the company.

This testing is offered as a complimentary service to existing and potential Schutte-Buffalo customers.

Upon completion, the customer will receive photos of the processed material, a sieve analysis, an explanation of the feasibility of meeting stated production goals and a detailed proposal for the size reduction equipment recommended for achieving those goals, Shutte-Buffalo says. In addition, customers are welcome to witness the testing at the facility firsthand.

Schutte-Buffalo has been designing and manufacturing size reduction equipment since 1928. The company’s product line features 250 different models ranging in size from 2 horsepower to 800 horsepower, with many custom configurations available.
