FLP-Wurster Fluidized Bed Granulation Coater
Categories: Granulator and Extruder, Fluid Bed Granulator
All-in-One Mixing, Granulating, Coating, and Drying:
After the main material forms a fluidized bed at the bottom, granules are created with the aid of adhesive sprayed from the top nozzles in the granulating chamber. Subsequently, coating material is sprayed onto the granules from bottom or side nozzles within the chamber for effective coating.
- Input:
- Main ingredient as powder (for granulation) or granules and pellets (for coating), with adhesive or coating material in liquid form
- Output:
- Solid medium-sized granules with 3%–5% moisture content
- Type:
- Spray Fluidized Bed, Wet Granulation
- Additional Features:
- Mixing, Coating, Drying, Cooling
ZLG-Horizontal Vibrating Fluidized Bed Dryer
Categories: Convection Dryer, Fluidized Bed Dryer, Vibrating Dryer
Continuous Drying Solution for Granular Materials:
Operating on the principle of fluidization combined with vibration, the Vibrating Fluid Bed Dryer processes granules by circulating them on heated air that dries them evenly. This approach minimizes surface damage, prevents pollution thanks to its enclosed design, and gives granules time to settle — facilitating stable, continuous production.
- Input:
- Granules with moisture content < 20%
- Output:
- Granules with 1%–5% moisture content
- Temperature:
- Inlet air temperature < 200°C
- Additional Feature:
- Cooling
SET-Screw Extruder Granulator
Categories: Granulator and Extruder
Wet Granulation with Screw Extrusion Process:
By utilizing an extrusion process, this wet-granulation machine leverages the self-viscosity of a solid-liquid dispersion to bond powder particles, producing granules of consistent shape and size. The screw-extrusion mechanism generates enough force to form pellets without always requiring a binder — particularly suitable for high-viscosity materials. Optional water cooling is available.
- Input:
- Solid-liquid mixture (predominantly solid)
- Output:
- Moist cylindrical granules
- Type:
- Extrusion Granulation, Wet Granulation
GHL-Wet Rapid Mixing Granulator
Categories: Granulator and Extruder
Cutting-Edge Wet Granulation Technology:
A paddle at the base swiftly mixes powders and sticky binders within a cylindrical bowl, while a rapid chopper on the side breaks the mixture into wet granules to prevent clumping. This fast process combines mixing and granule formation within minutes, and the Wet Rapid Mixing Granulator can provide heating or cooling as needed.
- Input:
- Main material in powder form, binding agent as paste
- Output:
- Solid, loose granules with approximately 15% moisture content
- Type:
- Mixing Granulation, Wet Granulation
- Additional Features:
- Mixing, Mild Crushing, Heating, Cooling
Rotary Drum Mixer
Categories: Mixer, Rotary Mixer
Innovative Multi-Axis Motion Rotary Drum Mixer:
The Rotary Drum Mixer transforms the mixing process by moving and combining motions on the x, y and z axes. This method guarantees thorough mixing of powders and granules with simplicity and effectiveness, making it an ideal choice for dry-mixing applications.
- Input:
- Solid powders, Granules
- Type:
- Dry Mixing
HZG-Rotary Kiln
Categories: Convection Dryer
Perfect for Large-Scale, Continuous Drying:
Wet material enters at one end of the Rotary Kiln, where internal flights agitate it and blend it thoroughly with hot air. This elongated drum dryer, spanning many metres, can process hundreds of tons per hour, and its drum speed adjusts from 1 to 10 RPM to suit different requirements.
- Input:
- Granular materials
- Output:
- Granules with 3%–5% moisture content
- Temperature:
- Inlet air temperature range of 40°C to 350°C
- Additional Feature:
- Mixing
Pneumatic Flash Dryer
Categories: Convection Dryer, Flash Dryer
Integrated Handling for Heat-Sensitive, Loose Solid Materials:
Designed for temperature-sensitive and slightly viscous materials, this equipment offers a wide range of uses for loose solid materials. Its modular design allows drying and grinding stages to be added to meet varying customer requirements.
- Input:
- Non-viscous, loose solid materials
- Output:
- Powder, granules, with 3%–6% moisture content
- Temperature:
- Inlet temperature < 200°C
- Additional Feature:
- Grinding
XF-Horizontal Fluidized Bed Dryer
Categories: Convection Dryer, Fluidized Bed Dryer
Versatile Continuous Drying for Granules and Powder:
The Horizontal Fluidized Bed Dryer aerates damp materials with an upward air stream to dry or cool them. Built for continuous manufacturing, it offers residence times from a few seconds to minutes, ensuring effective processing.
- Input:
- Powders and Granules, moisture < 20%
- Output:
- Powders and Granules, moisture 3%–5%
- Temperature:
- Inlet air temperature < 100°C
- Additional Feature:
- Cooling
FL-Fluidized Bed Granulator
Categories: Granulator and Extruder, Fluid Bed Granulator
All-in-One Mixing, Granulating, and Drying:
Materials form a fluidized bed at the bottom, where granules are created in the granulation chamber with the help of spray nozzles dispensing binder. The hopper allows several raw materials to be added and mixed during the fluidization process.
- Input:
- Main ingredient as powder, adhesive in liquid form
- Output:
- Solid medium-sized granules with 3%–5% moisture content
- Type:
- Spray Fluidized Bed, Wet Granulation
- Additional Features:
- Mixing, Drying, Cooling
LZG-Spiral Vibrating Dryer
Categories: Convection Dryer, Vibrating Dryer
Method for Drying Pellets and Granules:
The Spiral Vibrating Dryer dries materials by using centrifugal vibration and gravity to move them in a bouncing path from top to bottom along a spiral bed. Fresh hot air enters from below, interacting thoroughly with the material for heat and mass transfer before leaving through the top — ensuring even drying.
- Input:
- Granular, short-rod and spherical solids with < 20% moisture
- Output:
- Granules, short rods and spheres with 3%–5% moisture
- Temperature:
- Inlet air temperature < 100°C

- Cooling
WLDH-Horizontal Ribbon Mixer
Categories: Mixer, Horizontal Mixer, Ribbon Blender
Equipped with Horizontal Screw Belts:
The Horizontal Ribbon Mixer offers efficient material blending. Its cylinder holds a shaft with surrounding ribbon belts that rotate at equal speed: the outer belts move material from both ends toward the center while the inner belts move it from the center back out, folding the batch together for thorough mixing.

- Powders, Granules, Small amounts of liquid
- Type:
- Dry Mixing, Mild Wet Mixing
Drying, Granulating and Mixing for Agricultural Inputs
Fluidized-bed granulators and coaters build fertilizer and agrochemical granules, the rotary kiln and pneumatic flash dryer process bulk agricultural materials, and horizontal ribbon mixers and screw extruder granulators handle formulation blending and pelletizing for agricultural products.
Equipment for Agricultural Processing at Scale
Rotary kiln drying handles high-volume, continuous bulk material processing common in agricultural inputs.
