Spheronizer QJ-700T Technical bulletin
Operation
Pellets are batch fed to the spinning friction plate and thrown against the spheronizer bowl forming a “twisting rope”. Collision of particles with the wall, friction plate, and with other particles, results in the deform-ation of the pellets into spheres. The final particle shape is time and formulation dependent. Once the desired particle shape is achieved, the discharge valve is opened and the batch collected.
