NPK granulator are not all the same, but various. How to accurately choose the most suitable npk granulator for your npk production plant? You can start with raw materials because different raw materials have different processing processes.Besides, different raw materials and scales have different npk pellet production solution. What’s more, according to your budget, the choice of npk particle granulator is also different. It is very important for you to choose a reasonable npk granulates fertilization plan and equipment.It can help you to get the most profit with the least amount of money.
Why granulated fertilizer made by npk granulator is better ?
Granulation of fertilizer products provides one of the most feasible methods for mixing powdered chemical raw materials into multi-nutrient fertilizers.It can storage time and packaging quality, and facilitating fertilizer application and handling. Without this technology, finely powdered material would be dusty and difficult to handle.Besides,denser particles would settle to the bottom of the bag or bucket, creating inconsistent mixing and resulting in less efficient fertilizers.
The npk fertilizer granulation line can process powdered fertilizers into granules. Among them, fertilizer granulation is an important process in the NPK fertilizer production line. Granulation quality affects the quality of the final fertilizer. In general, the particle size of the boundary is about 0.1 mm. Particles with a particle size of less than 0.1 mm are become powder, and the particle size is about 0.1 mm to 20 mm. Particles larger than 20mm are granules, and larger particles with a particle size exceeding 20mm will agglomerates. The particle size of solid particles has a great influence on their physical properties. Why is the fertilizer made into granules in the production of npk fertilizer？
What are the advantages of npk fertilizer granules compared with powder?
Fertilizers with very low water solubility can crush into small particles.Because it can ensure your fertilizer are effectively and quickly dissolved in the soil and absorbed by plants.
The control of fertilizer particle size is very important for the storage and transportation of fertilizers. Good granulation makes the organic fertilizer not easy to agglomerate and have a better transport performance.
You can add some inorganic components to the npk fertilizer production line to improve the fertilizer efficiency of organic fertilizers.However,after adding inorganic fertilizer,powdered fertilizers tend to absorb moisture and agglomerate.
Fertilizer granulation improves agricultural technology, fertilizer granules play the role of slow release of fertilizer efficacy.Besides,it is convenient to apply fertilizer and is not easy to blow away by the wind.
How to choose suitable materials for npk granulator working？
The npk pellets plant takes in a wide range of suitable materials, including ammonium nitrate, urea, ammonium sulphate and ammonia for N; superphosphate (SSP, TSP, USP) and phosphoric acid as source of P; and potassium chloride(MOP) and potassium sulphate (SOP)as source of K.
However, when selecting raw materials for the npk granulation production line, you should choose its shape.Besides, powdered raw materials are most suitable for subsequent processing. However, if your raw material is solid, we can also design a crusher machine for you.As a result,the raw material is better for the production process.Moreover, the required raw materials nitrogen (N), phosphate (P) and potash (K) usually start as a fine powder.Because they can also as a compound all-in-one product for fertilizers. You can granulate and mix them to obtain the desired nutrients.

Batching materials for nutrient npk pellets
In the NPK granulator fertilizer production line, for getting high-quality powder materials at a certain portion,you need batching machines to help you , so we design two batching machines for you: one is a static batching machine, which has a high degree of automation and only needs to be manually fed nutrient elements ; the other is a dynamic automatic batching system, which has a high degree of automation and can realize continuous batching to nutrient elements.Especially, its mainframe has PID regulation and alarm functions, which can realize the automatic control of a warehouse.
Crushing npk materials for mixing
In the granulation process of npk fertilizers, the sizes of the materials are very different, which is not conducive to subsequent uniform processing. Therefore, you need crushed the large pieces of raw materials evenly into particles of equal size, which is convenient for your subsequent granulation processing.
How to produce particles effectively?
Our two crushers using in manufacturing of npk granulates can help you,if you use our vertical crusher or chain crusher,you can get fine powder for efficient npk granulation:vertical crusher has strong adaptability, especially for materials with high moisture content, is not easy to block, and unloads smoothly; In addition,you can use the chain crushers to process the materials. It crushes the materials by high speed impulse and shear. Furthermore, there is a sieve inside the machine,which will screen the crushed powders. And the large blocks will out until they become fine powders.
Mixing powders for npk granulating
After crushing, you need mix these powders continuously. At the same time,mixing the raw materials according to the required ratio in the mixer evenly to improve the overall uniform fertilizer efficiency. But how to blend npk fertilizer in your npk plant?Our company can provide horizontal mixers or vertical disc mixers for balanced npk mixture production. The disc granulator has stable rotation, low power consumption and stable operation.Compared with the vertical blender, the horizontal blender has higher power and can quickly realize the mixing and stirring of various materials.It runs steadily and causes low noise.
What technological design you can get if you use ShunXin npk pellet machine?
Rotary drum granulator design
Rotary drum granulator is a key equipment in fertilizer industries to produce both high and low-density compound fertilizer. The theory of rotary drum granulation process is that all raw materials roll and solidify in the drum so that the raw materials could be fully react with each other.In npk steam granulation process, material particles are granulated into compound fertilizer balls under pressing force.
If you want to expanded the scale of production,you can choose it ,which widely used in large-scale npk fertilizer wet granulation plant.At the same time,the high steam temperature in the drum dries fertilizer granules, and improves the solidity.Moreover, rotary drum granulator can be used to produce many kinds of compound fertilizer such as DAP, MAP, TSP, and SSP.Given the low investment and development costs, this npk manufacturing line is attractive in terms of cost-effectiveness.It will also be a good choice for you.
