To extend the use time of wood pellet machine ring die, you can start from the following aspects:
‌1. Clean ring die ‌regularly
After each granulation is completed, the pellet machine ring die should be cleaned. The general practice is to add the raw material to the oil and mix it into oil, and fill the ring die. This can not only prevent the ring die hole from being blocked, but also facilitate the next startup of the equipment.
‌2. Disposal when not in use for a long time
If the ring die is not used for a long time, it should be unloaded and cleaned and stored in a ventilated and dry place to prevent the moisture in the air from reacting with its surface and rusting, thus affecting its service life.
At the same time, if the ring die is filled with oil, the oil will gradually harden during long-term storage, which will make it difficult to remove the oil in the next use.
Therefore, it is recommended to take out the oil in the ring die ‌ if it is not used for more than one month.
‌3. Choose high-quality ring die
The quality of the die directly affects the machine output, power consumption and the quality of the finished particle. The choice of high-quality wear-resistant ring die can ensure the normal and steady production of the pellet machine, thus extending the service life.
‌4. Motor power to be matched with
Different types of pellet machines are equipped with different motors. In the process of use, be sure to use the matching power according to the machine model. The motor power is too small, the granulation efficiency is low, and the particle quality is not up to standard; The motor power is too large, it will waste electricity, but also accelerate the mechanical wear, thereby shortening the life of the ring die.
‌5. Regular inspection and maintenance
Check the wood pellet machine ring die regularly, including worm gear, worm, bolts on the lubricating block, bearings and other moving parts for flexible rotation and wear. If any exception is found, replace the parts or contact the manufacturer.
By implementing the above measures, the use time of the wood pellet machine ring die can be effectively extended, the production efficiency can be improved, and the production cost can be reduced.
