The conical double helix mixer may encounter some common faults during use. Below are some possible faults and their analysis:
1. Difficulty or inability to rotate the spiral: Possible reasons may include damage to the spiral bearing, impurities or blockages between the spiral shaft and the bearing, insufficient lubrication, etc. The solutions include replacing bearings, cleaning impurities between the spiral shaft and bearings, and adding lubricants.
2. Poor mixing effect: The mixed materials were not fully mixed evenly, which may be due to insufficient mixing time, equipment capacity being too large or too small, or materials adhering to the container wall. The solutions include increasing mixing time, adjusting equipment capacity, increasing the number or changing the form of mixers, and regularly cleaning container walls.
3. Abnormal vibration or noise of the conical double helix mixer: Possible causes include collision between the mixer and the container, unbalanced screw shaft, loose bearings, etc. The solution includes adjusting the position of the mixer to ensure it does not collide with the container wall; Balance the spiral shaft or replace unbalanced components; Check and tighten bearings, etc.
4. Difficulty in cleaning: The residual materials inside the equipment are difficult to clean, possibly due to unreasonable equipment structure design, strong material adhesion, etc. The solution includes optimizing the equipment structure, reducing dead corners and difficult to clean areas; Choose appropriate coatings or materials to reduce material adhesion, etc.
Regular maintenance and upkeep of the conical double helix mixer, such as cleaning, lubricating, and fastening components, can reduce the occurrence of malfunctions. At the same time, timely detection and resolution of faults ensure the normal operation of equipment and the stability of mixing effects. If encountering serious malfunctions or unsolvable problems, it is recommended to contact maintenance personnel for repair and maintenance.
