The working principle of the granulator

The working principle of a granulator is to press and shape granular raw materials through a mold. The processing process of raw materials usually includes screening, mixing, adding water/oil, etc., and then feeding them into a granulator. Under the action of the mold, as the top shaft and mold core rotate, the raw materials are gradually compressed into small particles. By using different types of mold cores and rollers, particles of different shapes, sizes, and densities can be produced.

The working principle of a granulator is to press and shape granular raw materials through a mold.

By using different types of mold cores and rollers, particles of different shapes, sizes, and densities can be produced.

For most granulators, the application industries include food, feed, fertilizers, etc. During the production process, the granulator must have good adjustability and stability to ensure that each particle produced meets the required specifications. In addition, attention should be paid to maintaining the lubrication system during use to prevent early wear of system components due to friction effects.
High energy consumption: The granulator not only consumes a large amount of electrical energy, but also requires a large amount of compressed air or hydraulic oil transmission devices.
