Overview of the LYQ Series High-Pressure Ball Press and Material Requirements

Time：May 28,2021

Zhengzhou Hongxin Mining Equipment Co., Ltd. is a specialized company dedicated to the professional production of LYQ series high-pressure roller press equipment. Now, let me introduce you to the LYQ series pelletizing machines.

This series of pelletizing machines is equipment designed to compress powdered materials into spherical shapes. Widely applicable, it can process a variety of materials—including high-purity magnesium oxide powder, aluminum chips, activated carbon, alumina, bauxite, caustic soda, charcoal, clay, coke fines, iron filings, coal, cryolite, fertilizers, plastics, limestone, pigments, urea, potassium salts, and more—for purposes such as dust reduction, density control, material recovery, and improved transportation properties. The product is specifically engineered for use in the dry-powder pelletizing process within the Pidgeon method for magnesium production.

This machine has undergone years of industrial use and continuous improvement. Compared to other similar products, this series of pelletizers boasts distinct advantages, including a high pellet-forming rate, low power consumption, and a compact design that makes maintenance and adjustments particularly convenient. Undoubtedly, it is an ideal and essential piece of equipment for the Pidgeon process used in magnesium production.

To meet the requirements for material shaping, the pre-compression screw is equipped with a variable-frequency speed-control motor. Users can adjust the motor speed as needed based on the balling process, ensuring optimal balling efficiency and maximum production capacity. After compression, the material is screened by a screening machine: qualified pellets that remain on the screen are packaged, while the undersize material is returned to the storage bin, where it can be mixed with fresh feedstock before being re-compressed into pellets.

Requirements for Materials Used in the Ball Press Machine

1. Material particle sizes can range from 80 to 800 mesh.

2. No hard metal objects are allowed when bored, as they could damage the roller surface.

3. The material supply must be adequate; it’s recommended to use a variable-speed screw feeder, allowing you to monitor the return material flow and adjust the fresh material feed accordingly.

The ball press machine can help reduce industrial pollution and contribute to environmental protection.
