Application Area

Granulating equipment works by processing raw materials into smaller, uniform particles or granules. The exact process depends on the type of granulating equipment being used, but typically involves several steps:
Mixing: Raw materials are combined in the granulating equipment to create a homogeneous mixture.
Wetting: A liquid is added to the mixture to create a wet mass, which is necessary for the granulation process.
Granulation: The wet mass is subjected to mechanical, thermal, or chemical processes to break down the raw materials into smaller particles and form uniform granules. For example, in a fluid bed granulator, air is used to fluidize the wet mass and create uniform granules. In a high shear mixer, high-speed rotating blades are used to break down the raw materials into smaller particles.
Drying: The newly formed granules are dried to remove any residual moisture.
Sizing: The dried granules are screened to remove any over- or under-sized particles and ensure a uniform size distribution.
