What are the types of lime kiln stone distributor
The stone distributor of the lime kiln is the key equipment in the lime production. It is responsible for evenly distributing the limestone and fuel in the kiln, which is critical to the calcination quality. Common distributor types include the following:
Rotary distributor: uniformly distribute limestone in the kiln through rotary distributor, and the rotating speed can be adjusted to adapt to limestone with different particle sizes. Its advantages are uniform distribution, high temperature adaptability, long service life, and applicable to large lime kiln.
Swing distributor: distribute limestone in the kiln with swing arm, with swing angle and frequency adjustable, high flexibility, suitable for different kiln types and limestone distribution requirements. However, due to many swinging parts and relatively high maintenance frequency, it is suitable for small and medium-sized lime kiln.
Vibrating distributor: the vibrating motor drives the distributor to evenly distribute the limestone under the action of vibration. The distributor has a compact structure and is suitable for limestones with limited space. However, the distribution effect is greatly affected by the particle size of limestones, and it is generally suitable for limestones with small particle size.
Chute distributor: a simple distributor that guides limestone into the kiln through inclined chutes. The structure is simple, the maintenance cost is low, but the distribution uniformity is poor, which is suitable for the lime kiln with low requirements on the distribution accuracy.
Intelligent distributor: the distributor parameters are adjusted in real time through the sensor and control system to achieve a more accurate distribution effect. It is suitable for high-precision production, but the cost is high. At present, it is mainly used in large-scale modern lime kiln.
