How to evaluate the configuration of a screw sludge dewatering machine?

?

The screw sludge dewatering machine becomes one of main sludge processing machine in the wastewater industry. And the market is flooded with numerous OEM manufacturers, then how to evaluate the configuration of a screw sludge dewatering machine is important to get right one for your purpose.?Some basic judgement standard for reference.

?

1.?Material

As the screw sludge dewatering machine is used in wastewater sludge processing, a well anti-corrosion performance is required. The most common requirement is stainless steel 304, followed by stainless steel 316L, duplex 2205. Better materials, better corrosion resistance, but also higher costs. Differences may be seen in parts as

-?Rings

-?Washers

-?screw shaft (solid or hollow)

-?spraying pipes and related accessories

-?fasteners

?

2.?Processing method of components

As well known, a machine processing includes cutting, grinding, bending, welding, assembly, electrical connection, testing and packing. All these will affect the quality of completed product.?Points to be checked

-?Is there a SOP for the production processes?

-?Laser cutting or others, the tolerance?

-?Rings are one-piece cut or welding ones? Is there a flattening and deburring process?

?

3.?Motors

Right power, speed ration etc. are necessary for the motors, it impacts on the dewatering efficiency and life span. Unmatched motor, such as insufficient power will cause poor performance and shorter life span.?Selected ones are SEW, Nord, Siemens, ABB etc.

?

4.?Electrical Control Cabinet

It is the core for realizing functions. Correct wiring, component used and troubleshooting are main considering on it.

-?For stable performance, the entry brand for components is CHINT, followed by the imported ones eg, Schneider.

-?Is there a SOP for wire connecting?

-?Is any support for electrical connecting to be offered?
