Granulator is a kind of mechanical equipment used to process powder, block or other form of materials into granules, widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, food, feed and many other industries. The following is the working principle of the granulator, application areas and specific applications in different industries:
Working principle
The working principle of the granulator varies according to the specific type, and there are the following common types:
Ring die granulator: through the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the ring die, so that the material in the mold to form particles.
Roller granulator: the motor drives the speed reducer, and then through the chain drive to drive the fixed rollers and movable rollers synchronous rotation, the material from the top of the equipment falls between the rollers, through the double rollers extrusion, granulation, and discharged from the discharge port.
Swing granulator: the motor and reducer as a power source, drive the screen for reciprocating movement, so that the material in the granulation chamber to form particles.
Laboratory rotary granulator: the rotating stirring paddle makes the material form granules in the granulation chamber, and the parameters such as rotating speed, material proportion and wetting agent can be adjusted to control the size, shape and density of granules.
