1. Raw material characteristics

The particle size of the raw material is crucial. If the raw material particle size is too fine, the adhesion between the particles may be insufficient, and it is difficult to form a stable sphere. If the particle size is too coarse, it is not easy to compact and form. The humidity of the raw material is also a key factor. If the humidity is too low, the raw material is too dry, lacks the necessary viscosity, and it is difficult to form a ball. If the humidity is too high, it is easy to cause the material to adhere to the equipment, affecting normal granulation and causing a decrease in the ball forming rate.

2. Equipment parameters

For example, the speed of the fertilizer granulator. If the speed is too fast, the material may be thrown out before it can be fully extruded and formed. If the speed is too slow, the production efficiency will be reduced, and the material may be over-extruded and affect the quality of the ball. The pressure setting between the rollers is also important. Excessive pressure may cause the material to be over-compacted and irregular in shape or broken. If the pressure is too small, the material cannot be tightly combined to form a sphere.

3. Equipment structure

Reasonable mold design, such as the aperture and shape of the mold, will affect the forming of the particles. Too large or too small an aperture will affect the stability and uniformity of the spheres. In addition, whether the material flow channel inside the equipment is smooth will also affect the sphere forming rate. If there is a blockage or uneven flow of materials, some materials will not be able to form spheres normally.

4. Operating environment

Temperature fluctuations may affect the physical properties of the raw materials. For example, the evaporation rate of the raw materials will be accelerated under high temperature conditions, changing the humidity of the raw materials, thereby affecting the sphere forming rate. At the same time, external interference such as vibration during operation may also cause the spheres being formed to break or affect the normal extrusion of the materials.

In short, there are many factors that affect the sphere forming rate of the fertilizer granulator. In the actual production process, these influencing factors should be comprehensively adjusted to ensure the sphere forming rate of the fertilizer, thereby ensuring production efficiency.
