How does the twin-cylinder Briquetting Machine ensure uniform pressing?

Industry News-

1. Basic principles of twin-cylinder design
The twin-cylinder system of the Briquetting Machine refers to two hydraulic cylinders with a length of 1800 mm, each of which is responsible for applying pressure in different directions. When pressing metal scraps, the twin-cylinder system can work synchronously and apply pressure to the scraps at the same time to ensure a more uniform distribution of force during the pressing process.

2. Uniformity advantages of twin-cylinder design
Synchronous pressure: One of the biggest advantages of the twin-cylinder system is that it can apply force to the scrap metal at the same time, which ensures that the scrap is subjected to balanced pressure in the entire pressing area each time it is pressed. Because the two hydraulic cylinders work together, the scrap not only avoids bias during the pressing process, but also reduces the irregular or unstable finished products caused by uneven pressure distribution.

Balanced pressure distribution: In traditional single-cylinder pressing equipment, since there is only one hydraulic cylinder applying pressure, the scrap may be concentrated in a certain part during the pressing process due to factors such as gravity and friction, thus forming uneven pressed blocks. The double-cylinder design can apply pressure through two cylinders at the same time, making the pressure distribution more uniform, avoiding this concentrated pressure phenomenon, and ensuring the stability and consistency of the pressing effect.

Reduce waste deviation: The simultaneous action of the double cylinders effectively avoids the waste deviation that occurs when a single cylinder is pressed, especially under high pressure. If the waste is not evenly stressed, it is easy to produce irregular shapes or inconsistent densities. Through double-cylinder pressure, metal waste can be compressed more evenly, and finally form dense and uniformly shaped briquettes, which improves production efficiency and the quality of finished products.

3. Advantages of double-cylinder design under high pressure
The working pressure of the Briquetting Machine reaches 80 tons. This high pressure enables the waste to be effectively compressed in a short time, and the design of the double-cylinder system further enhances this pressing effect. Under high pressure, the double cylinder can effectively share the load and avoid the risk of excessive pressure in the single-cylinder system, which may cause equipment failure or uneven pressing. The double-cylinder design not only improves the load-bearing capacity of the machine, but also ensures that the force output is uniform during each pressing through precise hydraulic control, ensuring stability under high pressure.

Under such high pressure conditions, the metal scrap has strong elastic resilience and is prone to deformation. The dual-cylinder system can provide continuous and balanced pressure, and the scrap during the pressing process will not rebound or expand due to concentrated or uneven pressure, thus ensuring that the density of the scrap block after pressing is uniform and the shape is stable.

4. Comparison with other designs
Compared with the single-cylinder design, the dual-cylinder design provides more advantages, especially when handling large-scale scrap. Since the single-cylinder system can only apply pressure through a single hydraulic source, it may have problems such as local overheating, fatigue or pressure drop after long-term operation. The dual-cylinder design can achieve a more balanced workload distribution, avoid this situation, and enhance the long-term stability of the equipment.

In addition, the dual-cylinder design can also increase the pressing speed of the equipment, especially under high-intensity working conditions, the dual-cylinder can improve work efficiency and ensure that the equipment can quickly and efficiently handle large amounts of scrap. For metal recycling companies, efficient and uniform pressing not only reduces equipment wear, but also significantly increases production capacity and reduces production costs.
