Introduction

Disc granulators, also known as pan granulators, are pieces of equipment that utilize the principle of material rolling and agglomeration to produce granules. Their primary function is to process powdered raw materials into granules of uniform size and smooth, rounded appearance. This equipment is widely used for granulating organic fertilizers, compound fertilizers, bentonite, and various other powdered materials. Organic fertilizer raw materials include livestock and poultry manure, chicken manure, cow manure, sheep manure, horse manure, mushroom residue, straw powder, and humic acid. Compound fertilizer raw materials include nitrogen fertilizers, phosphorus fertilizers, potassium fertilizers, and various compound fertilizer powders. mineral powder raw materials include cat litter bentonite and gypsum powder. During operation, the material continuously rolls, collides, and aggregates within the rotating disc. With the assistance of a spray system, it gradually forms granules, which are automatically discharged once they reach the set particle size, enabling continuous production.

The disc granulator features a simple structure, stable operation, low failure rate, user-friendly operation, and low maintenance costs, making it particularly suitable for small and medium-sized fertilizer production projects. Compared to some extrusion granulators, it produces granules with higher roundness and a more market-competitive appearance; compared to some complex granulation equipment, it has a lower operational threshold and is easier to master. The granules produced by the equipment are perfectly spherical in shape, with a particle size generally ranging from 2 to 10 mm. The particle size can be flexibly adjusted according to production requirements, resulting in uniform, aesthetically pleasing granules with good flowability. It is widely used in organic fertilizer plants, compound fertilizer plants, livestock farms, agricultural operations, bentonite cat litter production, and various applications involving the granulation of powdered materials.

In terms of production capacity, the disc granulator offers a range of models from 0.5 to 8 tons per hour, capable of meeting the production needs of various sizes. Whether you are establishing a new small-to-medium-sized fertilizer processing plant or planning to upgrade your existing fertilizer production line, we can provide customized configurations tailored to your specific requirements. Simply provide us with detailed information regarding your raw material types, moisture content, target output, and site conditions, and our professional team will provide a free consultation on production processes, equipment selection, and workshop layout planning to help you achieve efficient and stable production.

Finished Granules

Well-Rounded and Aesthetically Pleasing Granules
Granules produced by disc granulators are typically spherical in shape, with uniform particle sizes and a neat, attractive appearance. Their surfaces are smooth, with minimal sharp edges or burrs, which helps improve product quality and market competitiveness.

Good Air Permeability
Due to the use of cold wet granulation, the internal structure of the granules is more natural and less prone to excessive compaction, allowing them to maintain a certain level of air permeability. This facilitates the decomposition of fertilizer in the soil and the release of nutrients.

High Strength and Resistance to Breakage
The granules, formed through continuous rolling and layer-by-layer coating, have a dense structure with good compressive strength and wear resistance. They are less likely to crumble or break during transportation, loading/unloading, and storage.

Good Flowability for Easy Use
The granules are regular in shape and uniform in size, with excellent flowability. They pass smoothly through conveying, packaging, and fertilizing equipment, reducing blockages and improving operational efficiency.

Moderate Moisture Content for Easy Storage
After subsequent processing, the granules produced by the disc granulator have a relatively stable moisture content. They are resistant to caking and moisture absorption, making them suitable for extended storage and long-distance transportation, which helps maintain consistent product quality.
