In the production of pellets in the fertilizer, feed and other industries, the efficiency of the rotary drum granulator directly determines the production capacity of the enterprise. Mastering scientific methods to improve its working efficiency can inject strong power into production.
Structural optimization is the foundation. The large-diameter drum design increases the material tumbling space and contact area, making the granulation process more complete; the inclination angle is accurately controlled at 2.5°, and with a reasonable speed, it can reduce material retention and accelerate the rhythm of particle formation. Some models are equipped with a variable frequency speed regulation system, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the material to avoid efficiency loss caused by improper speed.
Material pretreatment is key. The raw materials need to be crushed by a chain crusher and screened by a screening machine to ensure uniform particle size, generally controlled at 80-100 mesh, to reduce the obstruction of large pieces of material to granulation; at the same time, the moisture content is strictly controlled. The moisture content of organic fertilizer granulation should be kept at 25%-30%. Too high is easy to agglomerate, and too low is difficult to granulate. Pre-treated materials are easier to form stable particles in the drum, reducing the return rate.
Operation and maintenance require meticulousness. Before starting the machine, check the lubrication of each transmission component to ensure smooth operation of the bearings; during production, monitor the particle formation status in real time through the observation window, and adjust the feed volume and spray liquid ratio in time to maintain the best granulation environment. Clean the residual materials on the inner wall of the drum regularly to avoid scaling that affects the heat transfer and tumbling effect; inspect and repair gears, rollers and other components every quarter to prevent the speed from decreasing due to wear.
With these efficient production techniques, Rotary drum granulator performs outstandingly in organic fertilizer and compound fertilizer production lines, with a single unit output of 5-20 tons per hour and a stable granulation rate of more than 85%. Choose an efficient drum granulator to create greater value every minute of production and help companies seize the initiative in fierce competition.
