Granulation equipment refers to the machinery used to enlarge particles by combining smaller ones. The most common application is the organic fertilizer granulator.
Functional characteristics:
Using the mechanical stirring force of high-speed rotation and the resulting air power, the fine powder material is continuously mixed, granulated, spheroidized, and compacted in the machine, thereby achieving the purpose of granulation. The particle shape is spherical, the sphericity is ≥0.7, the particle size is generally between 0.3-3 mm, the granulation rate is ≥90%, and the particle diameter can be appropriately adjusted by the material moisture content, mixing amount and spindle speed. Generally, the lower the mixing amount, the higher the speed, the smaller the particles, and vice versa.
Application range:
This machine is particularly suitable for granulating light fine powder materials. The finer the basic particles of the fine powder material, the higher the sphericity of the particles and the better the quality of the pellets. Generally, the particle size of the material before granulation should be less than 50 mesh. Typical application materials: chicken manure, pig manure, cow manure, carbon black, clay, kaolin, etc.
Organic fertilizer stirring tooth granulator is suitable for organic waste such as peat, sludge, chicken manure, livestock manure, lignite, sugar factory filter mud, papermaking sludge, wine waste, straw, bean dregs, peat, etc. After fermentation treatment, it can be directly granulated, solving the key technical problems that are difficult to solve in the traditional granulation process of disc (drum) fermentation, etc., and granulating the raw materials of biological organic fertilizer.
Disc granulator: (also called ball-forming disc) is one of the main equipment in compound fertilizer production line and organic fertilizer production line. The disc granulator adopts an overall arc structure, and the granulation rate can reach more than 93%. The disc granulator is equipped with three discharge ports, which is convenient for intermittent production operations, greatly reducing labor intensity and improving labor efficiency. The disc granulator reducer and motor adopt flexible belt transmission, which starts smoothly, reduces impact force, and increases the service life of the disc granulator equipment. The disc granulator bottom is reinforced with multiple radiation steel plates, which is firm and does not deform. The disc granulator has a thickened, heavier and sturdy base design, which does not require anchor bolts to fix and runs smoothly. The main gear of the disc granulator adopts high-frequency quenching, and its service life is increased by 1 times. The granulation surface of the disc granulator is lined with high-strength fiberglass, which has anti-corrosion effect. It has the advantages of uniform granulation, high granulation rate, stable operation, and long service life. It is an ideal equipment for users.
Functional characteristics:
Dry materials are agglomerated into dense and hard blocks (cakes) under pressure, which is called extrusion process; the cakes are crushed and screened into granules, which is called granulation process. The role of extrusion is to expel the air between particles and to make the distance between particles close enough to generate attractive forces such as van der Waals force, adsorption force, crystal bridge and embedded connection. The strength of extruded granules is mainly formed by the interaction between molecules.
Flat film granulator is mainly a device that uses the high humidity of organic fertilizer to pass through the flat film granulation disk and use the cutter to granulate the material into a column. Flat film granulator first crushes the organic fertilizer material through a semi-wet material crusher, and then stirs it directly into a column. If round particles are needed, you can choose a rounding machine, which uses centrifugal force and the high humidity of organic fertilizer to directly throw the columnar particles into a spherical shape. The size of the round particles can be adjusted according to the cutter of the flat film granulator. Since the flat film granulator generates temperature when granulating, the moisture content of the particles after crushing-stirring-granulating-rounding will be between 20-30%, which reduces the load of the dryer and lays a good foundation for the subsequent drying process.
Flat film granulator: It uses a pressure wheel, and the linear speed of the two ends is consistent with the inner and outer rings of the die disc, so there is no misalignment friction between the wheel and the die, which reduces resistance, reduces kinetic energy loss, extends the service life of the mold, and reduces production costs. The pressure wheels are evenly distributed, running smoothly, increasing the pressing area and improving production efficiency. At the same time, the screw center pressure adjustment structure is adopted, and the mold gap can be large or small, which is suitable for different materials to ensure the pressing effect.
Flat film granulator: It can produce spherical pure organic fertilizer, organic inorganic fertilizer, and biological organic fertilizer; the particles are uniform, smooth, round, high in strength, and good in fluidity. The three-in-one machine with unique technology is used to complete the whole process of low-temperature drying, cooling, and screening at one time, with low equipment investment and low operating costs. The survival rate of microorganisms is >90%.
Functional characteristics:
The rotary drum agitator granulator is a molding machine that can make materials into specific shapes. The rotary drum agitator is one of the key equipment in the granulation production line. The agitator granulator production equipment is suitable for cold and hot granulation and large-scale production of high, medium and low concentration compound fertilizers. The main working method is wet granulation. Through a specific amount of water or steam, the basic fertilizer is fully chemically reacted after being humidified in the cylinder. Under specific liquid phase conditions, with the help of the rotation of the cylinder, the material particles are squeezed and agglomerated into balls. The rotary drum agitator granulator uses the mechanical stirring force of high-speed rotation and the air power generated thereby to continuously mix, granulate, spheroidize and densify fine powder materials in the machine, thereby achieving the purpose of granulation. This granulation method makes the pelletization rate of the pellets higher, the pellets more beautiful, and saves energy.
The core part of the rotary granulator is the rotary system, which consists of a motor, a reducer and a pair of spiral rotary granulators.
During the operation of the rotary granulator, the material enters from the feed port and is pushed into the mold system through the rotary system. The mold system consists of a series of molds, each of which has a circular hole. The material is compressed into particles through the mold. The particles continue to move forward with the rotary system and then are discharged from the discharge port.
Applicable people: organic fertilizer plants, chemical plants, pharmaceutical production, plastic production, rubber production, etc.
The three-in-one agitator and stock-turning granulator uses the mechanical stirring force of high-speed rotation and the resulting air power to continuously mix fine powder materials in the machine, granulate, spheroidize, extrude, collide, densify, polish and other processes, so as to achieve the purpose of granulation. The shape of organic fertilizer particles is spherical, the sphericity is ≥0.7, the particle size is generally between 0.2-4 mm, and the granulation rate is ≥90%. The size of the granulator particle diameter can be properly adjusted by the moisture content, mixing amount and spindle speed of the material. Usually, the lower the moisture content and mixing amount, the smaller the particles and the higher the spindle speed, and vice versa. Our company can provide granulation technology and support according to customer materials.
