Curious about fertilizer granulator liners? Let me guide you through the world of these essential components in the fertilizer equipment industry. In this article, I’ll introduce you to the different types of liners and their impact on equipment performance. So, let’s dive in!
Understanding Granulator Rubber Liners
Granulator rubber lining, also known as natural rubber lining, is a plate crafted from natural rubber, boasting exceptional physical and chemical properties. Widely utilized in various industrial applications, it serves as a protective layer for granulators, offering cushioning, vibration reduction, and sound insulation. Its resilience against wear, aging, and chemical corrosion makes it an ideal choice for environments with corrosive fertilizer materials like Urea and MAP DAP.
Benefits of Using Liners in Fertilizer Production
The significance of granulator liners cannot be overstated in compound fertilizer production. Previously, equipment service life was significantly shortened due to material corrosiveness. However, the introduction of rubber linings has extended equipment lifespan and enhanced fertilizer quality, showcasing the vital role of these liners in the production process.
Exploring Pros and Cons of Rubber Liners
While natural rubber liners offer numerous advantages, they do have limitations. Their heat and oil resistance may fall short in high-temperature environments like NPK compound fertilizer dryers. Additionally, geographical and climatic constraints on natural rubber production can impact its availability.
Installation Tips for Rubber Liners
Installing a rubber-backed liner requires careful preparation. Prior to installation, allow the rolled rubber plate to stretch freely for 3 to 4 weeks. During installation, ensure the long side of the rubber plate aligns with the cylinder axis, and meticulously clean lining bolt holes to facilitate proper bolt placement.
Introducing SS304 and PP Polypropylene Liners
In cases where rubber linings are unsuitable, alternative materials like SS304 stainless steel and PP polypropylene come into play. SS304 offers superior corrosion resistance, making it ideal for highly corrosive materials like potassium sulfate. On the other hand, PP polypropylene boasts excellent chemical resistance, heat resistance, and environmental friendliness, making it suitable for various fertilizer equipment applications.
