In industries like fertilizer, feed, and metallurgy,disc granulators play a crucial role. They function like “magic wheels,” transforming powder into uniform granules to enhance product quality and production efficiency. What new breakthroughs has this technology achieved in 2024? Let’s explore!
Fun Fact: If all the fertilizer granules produced globally each year were made using disc granulators and connected end-to-end, they could circle the Earth several times!
1. Three Cutting-Edge Technologies in Disc Granulators
AI Visual Recognition
Automatically detects particle size and adjusts rotation speed and tilt angle in real-time, increasing granulation efficiency to 95%.
Super-Wear-Resistant Nano Coating
Extends service life 3 times longer than traditional steel, reducing downtime for maintenance.
Magnetic Modular Design
Reduces accessory replacement time from 2 hours to just 15 minutes.
2. New Industry Application Trends
- Environmental Sector:Processing municipal sludge into granules for waste resource recovery
- New Energy Materials:New granulation processes for lithium battery cathode materials
- Pharmaceutical Industry:High-precision drug particle production
Expert Prediction: Over the next 2 years, more than 50% of disc granulators will be equipped with IoT capabilities for remote monitoring and smart maintenance.
3. Purchasing Guide: Pitfalls to Avoid
❌ Focusing only on price while ignoring energy consumption (new models can save tens of thousands in electricity annually)
❌ Neglecting after-sales service (key components should have ≥2 years warranty)
❌Skipping material testing (different materials require parameter adjustments)
