In the process of feed production, material agglomeration is a common problem. There are many reasons for material agglomeration, including the physical properties of the material itself (such as particle size, density, humidity and surface properties), the design of the mixing equipment, and the operating conditions during the mixing process. Once the agglomerates are formed, they will hinder the effective contact and mixing between the materials, resulting in uneven mixing, affecting the uniformity and nutrient distribution of the feed.
The presence of agglomerates will also affect the physical properties of the feed, such as fluidity, bulk density and particle size distribution, which in turn affects the processing performance of the feed and the digestion and absorption efficiency of the animal. Therefore, solving the problem of material agglomeration and achieving full mixing of the feed is a crucial link in feed production.
The SSHJ twin-shaft paddle mixer is a mixing equipment designed for feed production. Its unique radial adjustable paddle design shows significant advantages in solving the problem of material agglomeration. This design effectively breaks the material agglomeration and achieves full mixing of the feed by optimizing the geometry and arrangement of the paddles, as well as the rotation and shearing action of the paddles.
1. Optimization of paddle geometry and arrangement
The paddles of the SSHJ mixer adopt a special geometry and arrangement to meet the mixing requirements of different materials. The paddle profile design is carefully calculated to produce the best fluid dynamic effect during the mixing process. By adjusting the angle and position of the paddle, the flow pattern of the material in the mixing chamber can be optimized, and dead corners and material accumulation can be reduced, thereby avoiding the formation of agglomerates.
The arrangement of the paddles has also been optimized to ensure uniform distribution of the material in the mixing chamber. This arrangement not only improves the mixing efficiency, but also enhances the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment, enabling it to cope with various material characteristics and mixing requirements.
2. Rotation and shearing action of the paddles
During the rotation of the paddles of the SSHJ double shaft paddle mixer, not only a strong stirring action is generated, but also a shear force is applied to the material. This shear force can effectively disperse the agglomerates and break them into smaller particles, thereby increasing the contact area between the materials and promoting the full mixing of liquid and dry materials.
The rotation speed and shear intensity of the paddles can be adjusted according to the characteristics of the materials and the mixing requirements. For materials that are easy to agglomerate or have poor fluidity, the rotation speed and shear strength of the paddle can be increased to more effectively break up the agglomerates; for materials with good fluidity, the rotation speed and shear strength can be reduced to reduce energy consumption and material wear.
The SSHJ mixer achieves significant mixing effects in feed production through its radially adjustable paddle design. The following are several practical application cases that demonstrate the excellent performance of the SSHJ mixer in breaking up material agglomerates.
1. Mixing of grains and protein sources
In feed production, grains (such as corn, barley, wheat, etc.) and protein sources (such as fish meal, soybean meal, meat and bone meal, etc.) are the main raw materials. The particle size, density and surface properties of these raw materials vary greatly, and agglomerates are easily formed. When using the SSHJ mixer for mixing, these agglomerates can be effectively broken up by adjusting the angle and position of the paddle, as well as the rotation speed and shear strength, to achieve uniform mixing of grains and protein sources.
2. Mixing of mineral and vitamin premixes
Mineral and vitamin premixes are important components of feed. They usually exist in the form of tiny particles and tend to agglomerate together. When using the SSHJ mixer for mixing, the rotation and shearing action of the blades can disperse these tiny agglomerates and fully mix them with the feed matrix to ensure the nutritional balance of the feed.
3. Mixing of liquid additives
In feed production, liquid additives (such as oil, molasses, water, etc.) are often required to improve the taste and nutritional value of the feed. However, the addition of liquid additives often causes material agglomeration. The radially adjustable blade design of the SSHJ mixer can optimize the flow pattern of the material so that the liquid additive can be evenly distributed in the material, thereby avoiding the formation of agglomerates.
In addition to the radially adjustable blade design, the SSHJ mixer has many other advantages that make it an ideal choice for feed production.
1. Efficient mixing capacity
The SSHJ mixer adopts a double-shaft design, which can achieve full mixing of materials in a short time. Its efficient mixing capacity not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures the stability of feed quality.
2. Easy to clean and maintain
The SSHJ mixer has a reasonable structural design and is easy to clean and maintain. The interior of the equipment is smooth and has no dead corners, which avoids the problems of material residue and bacterial growth. At the same time, the parts of the equipment are easy to disassemble and replace, reducing maintenance costs.
3. Strong adaptability
The radially adjustable blade design of the SSHJ mixer enables it to cope with various material characteristics and mixing requirements. By adjusting the angle and position of the blade as well as the rotation speed and shear strength, the equipment can adapt to different formulations and process requirements, achieving multiple uses of one machine.
