Theouter portion of each slab is rejected as it is not sufficiently compressed : it isadded to a later pressing. Blasting powder is sometimes compressed between rollers. The broken-up press-cake is put in barrels and taken to the granulating Granulatingor corning house. Here there is a machine having three or four pairs of gun-metal rolls, through which the press-cake is passed, and a number of automaticsieves, which sort out the grains of the required si/.e i > Fig. 10).

Various other types have been tried, butnone produces such a good angular grain. In France the granulation is carried out in a horizontal drum covered withmetal sheet perforated with fine holes of a size suited to the sort of powder thatis to be produced. The broken down mill-cake is placed inside this drum to-gether with pieces of hard wood, which are caused by longitudinal strips to fallcontinually on to the powder and break it up.
