Abstract
A machine of modular construction having a framework onto which a plurality of removable stators is mounted. The stators are fixed relative to rotors which fit within openings in the stators. The rotors are keyed to a central axial shaft which provides rotary power so that the rotors can rotate within the fixed stators. Each rotor has a number of radially extending blades having a forward edge carrying a knife, while the stator has similar radially extending blades and knives confronting the rotor's knives in a material shearing relationship. A modular stator is jointed for disassembly allowing access to both rotor and stator knives while the apparatus is still mounted on the framework.
