Schutte Hammermill Chain-Driven Equipment Down: Seized Pin Won't Press Out
Your Schutte Hammermill chain-driven line is stopped cold by a seized pin that refuses to budge.
Corrosion, wear, contamination
Downtime is killing your production targets right now.
Torching risks burns, fire, and crew safety violations.
Stuck pins from corrosion, wear, and buildup block restarts and demand fast, safe extraction.
Why This Happens
Chain pins seize when corrosion builds up in joints, wear widens clearances for debris pack-out, and heavy contamination or load cycling locks components tight.
This turns routine maintenance into hours of stalled equipment.
The result: extended breakdowns, lost output, and mounting pressure on the floor.
