A flocculant is added to the sedimentation tank; then why is a rake-like device similar to a mixer installed? Does this rake device serve a mixing function? Thank you
If the material mixer stirs, will the solidified substance still deposit? A material raking machine is used to gradually collect the solidified material distributed at the bottom of the tank and discharge it from there
The original poster probably didn’t go to the site during the major repair; generally, the area is cleaned once every time a major repair is carried out. The drive shaft of the rake feeder has four rake arms, two long and two short. There are scrapers on it that, as they rotate, scrape the sludge at the bottom of the clarification tank toward the central plunger valve at the bottom, and then it is processed by a fine slag filter.
A material raking machine essentially uses the scraper on it to lift the mortar that has settled at the bottom of the clarifying tank to the base of the cone for removal, so that the mortar does not accumulate at the bottom. You will also find that the material raking machine has a function to raise the rake; when there is too much mortar at the bottom, exceeding the machine’s set torque, the rake rises, which serves to protect the machine. This also indicates that there is sufficient mortar at the bottom, and it is necessary to increase the amount of material removed from that area.
