In modern fertilizer production, transforming powder into uniform pellets is an exquisite craft. The rotary drum granulator plays a key role in this transformation with its unique granulation method. How does this continuously rotating cylinder work its magic? Let’s explore this fascinating world of granulation together.

The heart of the rotary drum granulator is a slightly inclined rotating cylinder. When uniformly mixed raw materials enter the cylinder, an amazing transformation journey begins. Through the drum’s slow and steady rotation, fine powder particles start to adhere and coalesce, gradually forming uniform pellets much like rolling snowballs. By adjusting the drum’s rotation speed, inclination angle, and liquid addition, operators can precisely control pellet size and density to achieve ideal granulation results.

However, the success of rotary drum granulation relies on the seamless coordination of the entire production line. The chain crusher acts as the “vanguard” of the production line, first pulverizing raw materials to the ideal fineness; the vertical disc mixer then performs like a “bartender,” using dual-spiral agitation to ensure perfect blending of various components; after granulation, the material enters the dryer, where this “drying expert” employs a hot air circulation system to precisely control pellet moisture; the cooler then takes the stage, giving the pellets a “cool shower” to rapidly reduce temperature and set their shape; finally, the screening machine plays the role of “quality inspector,” grading the finished products through multi-layer vibrating screens to ensure pellet uniformity. These interconnected equipment form an intelligent granulation production line.

The charm of rotary drum granulation lies in its continuity. Unlike batch production, it enables non-stop continuous operation, significantly improving production efficiency. Meanwhile, its gentle granulation process is particularly suitable for handling fragile materials, ensuring both pellet integrity and nutrient effectiveness.

From powder to pellets, it’s not just a change in form but an enhancement in value. Through its unique granulation method, the rotary drum granulator gives fertilizers better physical characteristics, making nutrient release more controllable and application more convenient, thereby contributing significantly to the development of modern agriculture.
