MJK0221 LCI Marumerizer QJ-700TG

1- New LCI Marumerizer QJ-700TG MDL: QJ-700TG P.O. No.: 634110 MFG Date: March 2005 S/N: 4130152  Product Information:  The Marumerizer spheronizer from LCI converts wet pellets into spheres of your desired size, ranging from 0.5mm to 10.0mm in diameter.  The Marumerizer spheronizer is comprised of three main components: a vertical cylinder with the discharge port, a circular "friction" plate, and a variable speed drive train which turns the plate. The feed material to the spheronizer can be extruded particles or moist granules from a mixer/granulator. Since an extruded particle has at least two dimensions already defined, a narrow final particle size distribution is possible. Particles are fed onto the spinning friction plate, which throws them against the inside wall of the cylinder. Extruded particles are quickly broken into segments approximately one diameter long. Centrifugal and gravitational forces create a mechanically fluidized ring of particles. Collisions with the wall, friction plate, and other particles result in the plastic deformation of each granule, quickly creating a spherical shape. The desired shape for a specific application is time and formulation dependent and is achieved, predictably, and repeatedly, in a brief period called the "spheronization time".
