Line for packaging a volatile chemical mixture based on graphite dust

Features

The product turned out to be extremely difficult to use:

Develop, install, and debug a packaging line 

In addition to the packaging itself, the client needed:

• pre-mix several components;
• grind the resulting mixture to a homogeneous state before packaging;
• and at the same time, minimize dust dispersion as much as possible.

Decision from OMELA

We have developed and designed an anti-dust line, combining the processes of mixing, crushing, and packaging in a single technological solution.

Line structure:

1. Drunken barrel mixer
• Cubic shape, with an offset axis of rotation.
• Ensures high-quality and uniform mixing of all components.
2. Unloading mechanism
• The mixer is mounted on guides and, after completing the cycle, moves onto the loading conveyor, discharging the entire batch of product.
3. First screw conveyor
• Moves the product through the crusher, feeding it in portions, which ensures effective grinding and prevents the formation of lumps.
4. Second accumulator conveyor
• Serves as a buffer between the crusher and the packaging area.
• Equipped with vibration motors that prevent product from sticking to the walls.
5. Semi-automatic filling machine for valve bags
• Equipped with a built-in mixer in the hopper, which is especially important for difficult-to-pour mixtures.
• Ensures accurate dosing of 5.5 kg into each bag.

Additional features:

• Anti-dust design: all sections of the line were designed to minimize dusting.
• Rotary sensors: special models were selected that are capable of stable operation in dusty conditions for automation of feeding and packaging.
• Vibration motors: installed on conveyors, they ensure stable feeding and prevent product sticking.

Resultat:

• The client received a comprehensive, individually designed solution covering all stages
• from mixture preparation to packaging.
• The line works steadily with one of the most capricious products in terms of its properties.
• The entire process is organized taking into account the requirements for cleanliness and safety in production.
