Help! ! ! What methods can be used to address bridging and arching phenomena during material transportation?
Thread Content
After the material is filtered out by the centrifuge, it has a high water content and consists of large lumps. At present, we manually crush these pieces before feeding them into the pipelines; this is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it also easily leads to pipeline blockages. When the material is transported to the transfer hoppers, clogging occurs as well, requiring specialized workers to clear the obstructions. Do any of you experts have any good solutions?
You can try using a screw conveyor
What model of centrifuge is being used?
Try a machine that combines centrifugal drying.
When used in conjunction with a screw conveyor, it is advisable to choose a more compact device and to keep the pipelines from being too long.
Vertical centrifuge with manual unloading
Our pipeline is actually quite short; the material filtered by the centrifuge and other equipment is temporarily stored in trays on the third floor, before being fed into the pipeline. This pipeline is short and runs almost vertically to a hopper on the second floor, whose volume is around 1.5 m3. From there, the material moves onto a screw conveyor to proceed to the next processing stage. Is there any equipment that can replace a vibrator to crush the material in pipes and hoppers?
Is it because the moisture content in your materials is high after coming out of the centrifuge that they tend to clump together?
Since the material itself is an organic substance, it is sticky; after coming out of the centrifuge, it goes to a drying device where it is dried
A crushing device, such as one using flying knives, can be employed to break up the material before it enters the pipeline. For vertical transportation, a screw conveyor can be used to achieve a crushing effect; however, it is not very suitable for horizontal transportation, as the material has a high water content and may be sticky. If it is sticky, it can easily get stuck around the shafts, in which case a tubular chain conveyor could be tried. .
