3.How To Solve The Raw Material Absorbing And Low Uniformity Of 3D Mixer?

There may be raw material absorbing and low uniformity in 3D mixer work. For the problem solving, you may need the knowing of below causes and solution.

Causes

Material issues of equipment

Material Issues Of Equipment-Sourced:apecusa

The strong adsorption properties of 3D mixer may easily adsorb raw material particles. Certain metal surfaces may have tiny pores or rough structures which absorb the materials. This phenomenon is more evident when the raw materials are sticky or have surface-active properties.

Electrostatic effects

Electrostatic Effects-Sourced:vectorstock

Static electricity comes from friction between the raw materials, the equipment walls and the particles. This static electricity charges the raw material particles. The increased adsorption force between the materials and the equipment causes the sticky of raw material and the content uniform.

Improper mixing process parameters

Improper mixing process parameters are varied. The short mixing time, unevenly mixed material can also cause the absorption problem of material by equipment. Besides, the high mixing speed can also cause some raw materials to be thrown onto the walls and absorbed.

Raw material property differences

Raw Material Property Differences-Sourced:foodandwine

There are significant differences in properties such as particle size, shape, density, and moisture content between different raw materials. The smaller particle sizes are more likely to fill the tiny gaps  and be adsorbed. Besides, the material with higher moisture content is more easier to be stock by equipment.

Inadequate equipment cleaning

The residual materials or impurities from previous operations which comes from the previous cleaning problem may interact with the current batch of raw materials and increase the likelihood of adsorption. It can also affect the determination of content uniformity.

Solution

Optimize equipment material and design

Optimize Equipment Material And Design-Sourced:buntyllc

Change Materials

You may apply materials with weaker adsorption properties to manufacture the internal components of the mixer. Smooth stainless steel or PTFE linings are your great choice for the reduce of the adsorption sites for raw materials.

Improve Structure

You should optimize the mixer’s structure to reduce internal dead corners and gaps. It makes the better flowing of your material and reduces the absorption.

Eliminate static electricity

Install electrostatic eliminators

You should install static eliminators on the mixer, like ionizers, to neutralize the static electricity generated. It can also reduce the chances of raw materials adhering to the equipment due to static.

Increase humidity

You should increase the humidity in manufacturing places. The relative humidity between 40%-60% can help reduce static electricity.

Adjust mixing process parameters

Adjust Mixing Process Parameters-Sourced:vecteezy

Set optimal mixing time

The optimal mixing time ensures the thorough mixing of raw material and avoid low content uniformity which may come from insufficient mixing time.

Optimize mixing speed

You should adjust the appropriate mixing speed according to raw material characteristics and mixer performance. The fast or slow speed is bad for mixer manufacturing. Different speeds can be tested to find the optimal speed for uniform mixing and minimal adsorption.

Raw materialspre-process

Raw Materials Pre-process-Sourced:pishrochem

Adjust Raw Material Properties

You should adjust particle size, moisture content and so on to make their properties more uniform. You may sieve raw materials with large particle size differences or dry materials with high moisture content to reduce adsorption.

Add Anti-adsorption Agents

You should add appropriate anti-adsorption agents to the raw materials, such as talcum powder or magnesium stearate. These substances can form a film on the surface of raw material particles. The contact between the raw materials and the equipment is cut off.

Strengthen equipment cleaning and maintenance

Strengthen Equipment Cleaning And Maintenance-Sourced:aise

Regular cleaning

The strict cleaning protocols for equipment can ensure thorough cleaning of the mixer. The no residues of material in equipment can reduce the affect of raw material on your 3D mixer.

Inspection and maintenance

Regular inspecting and maintaining the mixer is essential. You should promptly detect and repair surface wear, scratches, or other issues to prevent uneven surfaces from increasing the likelihood of raw material adsorption.
