Installation of Extruder

The principal machine of extruder is the heaviest equipment in the whole system, and also considering the main motor, thus it is demanded highly to the bearing capacity of foundation. The extruder cannot be directly put onto foundation during installation, it is required to underlay a frame, which is made of channel steel according to the size of extruder base, at the bottom of equipment base, and use the expansion bolt to fix with foundation. Ensure the plainness of the whole frame when making the base frame, especially the principal machine base and the mo tor base must be at the same plane. This is especially important for the extruding machine with driving device of elastic coupling directly connected with reducing gear box.



Because the main motor and the reducing gear box are directly connected with a drum type coupling, it is necessary to ensure the coaxiality between the output shaft of main motor and the input shaft of the reducing gear box during installation. Comparatively, it is convenient to adjust the position of main motor for adjusting the coaxiality.

The coaxiality between the two shafts can be also ensured by lying channel steel under the extruder.

Safety Points While Operating the Grinding Machine

It is prohibited to open the operating gate until the grinding machine has been fully stopped; the safety mechanism of the access door is equipped with a locking cylinder for prevention of opening and a proximity switch for prevention of starting up after the door is opened. Do connect the electric circuit and air piping as required, ensuring that the cylinder locks the access door when the equipment is running, and the door cannot be opened until the equipment is stopped absolutely, and the equipment cannot be started up when the access door is opened.

It is forbidden to approach the rotating components by finger during running of the grinding machinery. The inspection, maintenance and cleaning work can only be done after the pulverizer rotor has been completely stopped.


If the coupling bolts between the convex cover and the grinding chamber and between the discharge outlet and the air pipe are not removed, do not pull the handle of the manual hydraulic pump so as to avoid any damages of the equipment.

When choosing the grinding machines with a hydraulic opening mechanism, it is a must to ensure there is no leakage at joints of each pipe, to avoid any danger due to pressure loss during operation. Customers should not adjust the guiding counterbalance valve at will, so as to avoid possible dangers.

When using the hydraulic opening mechanism to open the top cover for repair, do not turn the unloading valve of the manual pump at will, so as to avoid personal injury resulted from falling of the top cover.


Before power cut-off, do not open the junction box of the motor, so as to avoid personal injury resulted from electric shock. Set the rotating direction for the motor strictly according to the rotation direction indicating mark, so as to avoid any damages of the equipment.

Prevent tramp metals or other foreign sundries from entering the grinding chamber, so as to avoid any damages to the hammer blades and geared rings.

Introduction on Extruding Principle

Firstly, the materials prepared and pulverized enter the feeding bin for bridge-breaking and are to be processed. When working, the feeder of the extruder continuously feeds the material in bridge-breaking feeding bin to the different diameter cylinder conditioner for conditioning, adds evenly, the continuous and metered steam, water and other liquids into conditioner while material is entering into it.

The material being conditioned for a certain period enters the feeding section of the extruding assembly for extruding, the material is conveyed from the feeding section, and the feeding section on the extruding machinery is mainly used for conveying the material to kneading section and primarily compressing the material; in the kneading section, the material will be gradually ripened or dissolved through strong stirring, mixing and cutting; the pressure and temperature will rise gradually after entering the final ripening section, and the material will be ripened further, the starch will be gelatinized further, the fat and protein will be modified and homogenized to form a non-crystal texture; finally, the material will be extruded and cut into shapes through the discharging assembly.

Three sections of extruding assembly can be adjusted as required by the production. The screw conveys the material to the whole expanding chamber, the mechanical energy of rotating screw will be transformed as heat energy through abrasion between material and parts of the extruder as well as internal abrasion of material. The rotating speed of the extruding screw is adjustable, and therefore, it is possible to adjust the extruding effect during the process according to processing requirement, so as to control the product density and ripeness.

When material is extruded to pass through the die holes in the end of the extruding machine chamber, doughy material will be processed to a certain shape. Because of the great push and mix of screw in the machine chamber, a certain pressure and temperature will be formed in material, so that the material will expand greatly when extruded from the die holes or when most of water is evaporated momentarily or lightly expanded because less water is lost. This can be realized through strictly control each operation parameter as required.

During production, material will be greatly expanded and kept in a corresponding shape and dimension depending on structural features of material.

Safety Program for Pellet Mill

The pellet mill gate of is provided with a limit switch (1) and a clamp handle (2). When closing the gate of the pellet mill and bringing along the clamp handle, the contact of the limit switch will be pressed by a clamping plate (3) to give a signal to the control circuit for closing the gate, and then the pellet mill may be start end up. The pellet mill cannot be started up as shown in Fig 0.1.


When there is any hard foreign matter entered the pelletizing chamber or when the material flow rate is too high, the pressure between the press rollers and the ring die will exceed the normal working pressure, and then the friction resistance between the press rollers and the ring die will increase.


1. The rotor will drive the main shaft to rotate since the press rollers are installed on the main shaft and the ring die is installed on the rotor.
2. When the torque of the main shaft reaches a certain design value, the sheer force of the safety pin on the safety pin disk installed on the rear end of the main shaft exceeds the sheer force limit of the safety pin, thus the safety pin is sheared off.
3. At this time, the main shaft is rotating and drives the limit switches to act, thus stopping the motor of pelleting machine.
4. The main shaft must be reset and the safety pin must be installed again before restart.

A by-pass door is provided at feeding inlet of pelletizing chamber of pellet mill, if the speed of feeds into ring die is too fast and the feeds deposited are excessive and the motor load increased exceeds the rated value, the pneumatic device will open automatically the by-pass door, the feeds will be discharged from by-pass door; after the motor load is reset normally, the by-pass door will be closed automatically and the machine will continue to operate, see Fig 0.3.


The magnetic separating device between the discharging outlet of the conditioner and inlet of the pellet mill gate is effective for removing iron impurities mixed in materials to protect the ring die and press rollers from damage.
