Reasons reducing the service life of straw pellet machine

Straw pellet machine produced by our company can take crop straw or sawdust as raw material and make them into pellet. The following are the factors affecting the service life of straw pellet machine:

1. If the moisture content of raw material is too low, the hardness of processed products would be large, which would increase the power consumption of straw pellet machine in the processing, increase the cost of enterprises and reduce the service life of straw pellet machine. However, materials with too much moisture are not easily to be crushed, which would increase the strike frequency of the hammer. At the same time, as the friction of the material and hammer would generate heat to make the internal moisture of processed products evaporated. The evaporation of moisture and the fine powder after crushing would produce paste and block the mesh, thus reducing the discharge of straw pellet machine. Generally, the moisture of crushing product of raw materials like corn, corn straw are controlled under 14%.

2. At the end of the material crushing, a little wheat skin mixing edible oil could be put into the machine and pressed for 1 to 2 minutes to make the die holes filled with oil plant, which is convenient for the production of the next time. After stopping the straw pellet machine, loose the adjusting screw and remove the residual material.

3. The feed inlet of the machine can be installed with the permanent magnet or iron separator, lest affecting the service life of the wheel, die and the center axis. The temperature of straw pellets would reach 50-85℃ in the process of extrusion, and the roller bears strong passive stress in the operation, but lacking of necessary and effective dust protection device, so the bearing must be cleaned every 2-5 working days and add high temperature resistant grease. Clean and oil the main shaft of straw pellet machine once every other month and the gear box should be cleaned and maintained every half a year. Fastening and replacement of transmission part of the screw should be made at any time.

Above are the reasons of reducing the service life of the straw pellet machine. To learn more about the relevant information of pellet plant, please continue to focus on our website or call our service hotline, you can also come to our company for commissioning directly.

Straw pellets can be used as an alternative heating fuel to oil and gas when being burnt in the biomass boiler. As a kind of biomass fuel, straw pellets contain a relatively high amount of volatile ingredients, which makes it burning effectively...
