When powders magically transform into uniform fertilizer granules, few consider the engineering brilliance behind the process. This industrial alchemy is mastered by the disc granulator—a core fertilizer production machine that uses centrifugal force and liquid binders to form pellets without high pressure. Unlike a fertilizer compaction machine which relies on compression, the disc granulator achieves gentle granulation through rolling and tumbling motion, making it ideal for organic fertilizer production where gentle processing preserves nutrient integrity. As a versatile organic fertilizer production machine, it efficiently converts waste into valuable, evenly-sized granules, showcasing seamless synergy between compaction principles and granulation finesse.
The Rotating Heart: Granulation Disc
The granulation disc serves as a precision rotating stage, crafted from welded steel plates and armored with wear-resistant rubber or polyurethane lining. This “giant turntable” ranging from 1-5 meters in diameter can be tilted at 30°-60° angles with chef-like precision. Its 0.3-1.5 meter depth creates the perfect environment for different materials to form granules.
Power Symphony: Drive System
The motor, gear reducer, and transmission components form a harmonious “power orchestra.” The motor initiates the movement, the gear reducer modulates the rhythm, ultimately driving the disc at an elegant 5-30 RPM rotation. This system’s stability determines granule uniformity, much like a watchmaker’s precision mechanism.
Steel Backbone: Support Structure
The robust steel frame acts as the equipment’s “iron spine,” steadily supporting the entire system. This mechanically optimized structure ensures operational stability even under continuous production demands.
Precision Feeding: Material Supply
Screw or belt feeders function as the equipment’s “nutrition delivery system,” dispensing raw materials with the consistency of a precision pharmacist. Different feeding methods serve as specialized utensils, selected based on material characteristics.
Liquid Life: Spray System
The strategically positioned spray nozzles shower water or binders like spring rain. These adjustable “precipitation systems” ensure each particle receives optimal moisture, creating perfect conditions for granule formation.
