  2. Sledging rolls employ a combination of impact, shear and pressure. They have at intervals round the rolls, rows of teeth of varying length which grip the rock and feed it into the crushing chamber, also acting as picks to break the larger lumps; the optimum type of feed is stratified friable rock.
