In the fertilizer production line, the disc fertilizer granulator plays an important role. Its working principle is based on the motion characteristics of materials on a rotating disk.
After the various raw materials required for fertilizer production are mixed evenly in proportion, they are transported to the disc granulator. The disc begins to rotate, and the material gradually gathers at the edge of the disc under the combined action of centrifugal force, frictional force, and gravity. As the disk continues to rotate, the material keeps rolling, and the newly added material adheres to the already formed small particles, gradually growing in size.
The disc fertilizer granulator has many advantages. Firstly, the fertilizer particles it produces have regular shapes, mostly round spherical shapes. These shaped particles are more easily dispersed evenly in the soil during fertilization, which is beneficial for the balanced absorption of nutrients by crops. Secondly, the structure of the granulator is relatively simple, and it is easy to operate and maintain. For some small-scale fertilizer production enterprises, lower equipment costs and maintenance difficulties lower the production threshold.
In actual production, operators can control the size and strength of fertilizer particles by adjusting parameters such as the rotation speed of the disc, the rate of material addition, and humidity. For example, increasing the rotational speed of the disc appropriately can make the material move more vigorously on the disc, which helps to form smaller particles; Increasing the humidity of the material can enhance the viscosity between particles, thereby producing fertilizer particles with higher strength.
The disc fertilizer granulator, with its unique granulation method and many advantages, plays an irreplaceable role in fertilizer production lines, providing strong support for the production of high-quality and uniform fertilizers, and meeting the requirements of agricultural production for the physical form and quality of fertilizers.
