Wheel type and chain type turners play different roles in the fermentation process of organic fertilizers, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
From the perspective of structure and working mode, the disc type stacker mainly consists of components such as discs and mixing teeth. When the wheel rotates, the stirring teeth penetrate deep into the material pile, flipping and stirring the material to fully mix it up and down, inside and outside, promoting oxygen contact with the material and accelerating fermentation. The chain type flipping machine drives the flipping components installed on the chain through chain transmission, and flips the materials along the track to achieve continuous and efficient flipping.
In terms of fermentation effect, the wheel type stacker has a strong stirring force, which can fully crush and mix the materials, making the fermentation more uniform and the fertilizer more mature. However, due to the limitations of the roulette wheel, there may be inadequate mixing when dealing with high accumulation materials. The chain type flipping machine flips the material more thoroughly, ensuring a relatively consistent overall fermentation progress of the material, and has obvious advantages in handling large amounts of material. However, the stirring effect in some details may not be as good as that of the disc type flipping machine.
In terms of application scope, the wheel type stacker is suitable for handling materials of various textures, especially for materials with high viscosity, and has good mixing effect. It is suitable for small organic fertilizer production plants or enterprises with high requirements for fertilizer quality. Chain type turning machines are more suitable for large-scale and continuous production operations, such as large-scale agricultural waste treatment centers, which can quickly turn and ferment large amounts of materials.
In terms of operation and maintenance, the disc type stacker is relatively intuitive, but the disc and mixing teeth are prone to wear and tear, resulting in higher maintenance costs. The operation of a chain type flipping machine is relatively complex and requires professional personnel to operate and maintain it. However, the durability of the chain and flipping components is good, and the overall maintenance frequency is relatively low.
In terms of energy consumption, the disc type stacker has a relatively high energy consumption due to its strong mixing force and high motor power demand. Although the chain stacker operates continuously, its operating speed is relatively stable and its energy consumption is relatively low.
In terms of investment cost, the price of the wheel type stacker is relatively low, making it suitable for enterprises with limited funds. Chain type stacker equipment is relatively expensive, but its production efficiency is high. In the long run, it has a higher cost-effectiveness for large-scale production enterprises.
When choosing these two types of stackers, enterprises need to comprehensively consider factors such as their own production scale, material characteristics, and cost budget to make the most suitable decision.
