L'état de sécheresse du bois joue un grand rôle et on a souvent intérêt à présécher le bois avant de le broyer finement. Le broyeur à marteaux mobiles semble le système le plus efficace pour obtenir une finesse assez poussée, il ne s'use que lentement. Il agit essentiellement par chocs. Une grille permet de faire sortir les morceaux de dimensions voulues du champ d'action des marteaux. 1, record 3, French, - broyeur%20%C3%A0%20marteaux
