To maintain efficient and stable operation of disc granulators and extend their service life, scientific and rational regular maintenance is essential.
Before starting the equipment daily, carefully check that all component connections are secure and free of looseness. Also, check that the transmission is operating normally and for any unusual noises. Also, check the wear of the discs. Any abnormalities should be addressed promptly to prevent minor problems from leading to major failures. A comprehensive inspection should be conducted weekly, focusing on bearing temperature, lubrication conditions, and seal integrity to ensure that key components are in good condition.
Lubrication and maintenance are crucial components of maintenance. Regularly add appropriate lubricant or grease to bearings, gears, and other components of the transmission according to equipment requirements, ensuring that the amount used is controlled to avoid adverse effects on equipment operation. After each production run, promptly clean any remaining material from the discs to prevent it from clumping and hardening, which could affect the next run. Also, clean the disc granulator surface of any dust and debris to keep it clean. Liners, nozzles, bearings and other wearing parts need to be checked regularly. If they are severely worn or damaged, they should be replaced in time to ensure the normal operation of the disc granulator and the quality of granulation.
