A material collider system for reducing the size of solid particulate material fed into the system is disclosed. The collider system includes a pair of interconnected cylindrical chambers each having a rotatable rotor assembly which includes a plurality of disc sets and rigidly mounted thrust guides. The rotor assemblies are aligned in parallel relation and operate in a counter rotating manner. The thrust guides are mounted to the disc sets so as to extend radially outwardly of the disc sets and each thrust guide is maintained in a substantially rigid position by a shear pin. In one embodiment, the thrust guides of the two rotors are arranged in an alternating, interdigitating pattern. The disc sets may be offset along the length of the rotor assemblies such that the thrust guides form a 360 degree spiral pattern. The rotor assemblies are operated by motors secured outside of the chambers. Sealing means prevent materials from escaping the chambers and causing damage to the drive system of the material collider.
