Selection and Configuration of Powder Making Equipment
The selection and configuration of powder making equipment is an important link to ensure production efficiency and product quality. In the selection and configuration process, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the characteristics of raw materials, production requirements, equipment performance, investment costs and environmental safety and other factors. The following is a detailed discussion of the selection and configuration of powder milling equipment:
First, clear production requirements
First of all, the enterprise needs to clarify its own production needs, including product size distribution, yield requirements, purity standards and special requirements of the production environment. These needs will directly determine the type of equipment required, specifications and configuration.
Second, analyze the characteristics of raw materials
Raw material hardness, brittleness, viscosity, humidity and other characteristics of the choice of powdering equipment is critical. For example, for higher hardness of raw materials, you may need to choose more wear-resistant equipment; and for sticky raw materials, you need to consider the anti-stickiness and self-cleaning ability of the equipment.
Third, equipment selection
On the basis of clear production requirements and raw material characteristics, enterprises can start equipment selection. Common powder pulverizing equipment including ball mills, vibration mills, air mills, ultra-micro pulverizers and so on. Different types of equipment in the powder making principle, particle size control, energy consumption and other aspects of the differences, so you need to choose according to the actual situation.
Ball mill: suitable for dry or wet grinding of a variety of materials, with a wide range of particle size control, but relatively high energy consumption.
Vibratory mill: the use of high-frequency vibration to achieve material grinding, uniform particle size, suitable for small and medium-scale production.
Airflow mill: the use of high-speed airflow to drive the materials collide with each other to achieve grinding, suitable for the preparation of ultra-fine powder, but the equipment cost is higher.
Ultra-fine mill: combined with a variety of crushing principles, can realize the preparation of ultra-fine powder, suitable for the production of high value-added products.
Fourth, equipment configuration
After the completion of equipment selection, you also need to configure the equipment according to the production process. Generally speaking, the powder production line includes raw material pretreatment, powdering, grading, collection and so on. Therefore, it is necessary to configure the corresponding crusher, screening machine, dust collector, collector and other auxiliary equipment.
Crusher: It is used to crush large raw materials into small particles suitable for powder making.
Sieving machine: sieving the material after powder making, removing the particles that do not meet the requirements of particle size.
Dust collector: collect the dust generated during the powder making process to prevent environmental pollution.
Collector: collect qualified powder products for subsequent packaging and transportation.
Fifth, consider environmental protection and safety
In the process of equipment selection and configuration, it is also necessary to fully consider environmental protection and safety factors. Select low energy consumption, low noise, low emission equipment to ensure that the production process is environmentally friendly. At the same time, strengthen the safety protection measures of the equipment, such as the setting of explosion-proof devices, dust-proof devices, etc., to ensure production safety.
In summary, the selection and configuration of powder making equipment is a complex and detailed process, which requires comprehensive consideration of a number of factors. Through scientific and reasonable selection and configuration, it can ensure the stable improvement of production efficiency and product quality.
