The ceramic batching production line is an industrial process for producing ceramic raw materials. It mixes various raw materials in a certain ratio to prepare clay suitable for the subsequent production of ceramic products. The following is the main process flow of the ceramic batching production line:
Raw material preparation
1. Raw material collection: Collect various natural raw materials, such as clay, kaolin, feldspar, quartz, etc.
2. Pre-processing: The raw materials are crushed, screened and processed to remove impurities and obtain raw materials that meet the particle size requirements.
Raw material storage and ingredients
1. Storage: Store the pre-processed raw materials in silos for use as batching ingredients.
2. Batching: According to product requirements, accurately measure the proportions of various raw materials using electronic batching scales or other measuring equipment.
Mixing and grinding
1. Wet mixing: Put the measured raw materials into the wet mixer and add appropriate amount of water for preliminary mixing.
2. Ball milling: The mixed raw materials are sent into the ball mill for fine grinding to achieve a certain fineness and mixing uniformity.
Screening and iron removal
1. Screening: The slurry is screened by equipment such as a vibrating screen to remove particles that are too large or too small.
2. Iron removal: Use magnetic separators and other equipment to remove iron impurities in the slurry to ensure the quality of ceramics.
Adjustment and obsolescence
1. Adjustment: Make necessary adjustments based on the mud's performance indicators (such as viscosity, moisture, etc.).
2. Aging: The slurry is stored in an aging tank for a certain period of time to improve its properties and increase its uniformity and stability.
Preparation before molding
1. Filter press: Use a filter press to remove excess water from the mud to obtain mud with a certain moisture content and plasticity.
2. Clay kneading: Use vacuum clay kneading machine and other equipment to further remove bubbles in the clay and improve the density and uniformity of the clay.
Molding and drying
1. Molding: The kneaded clay is molded into the desired shape through a molding machine (such as a brick press, grouting machine, etc.).
2. Drying: Dry the formed ceramic body to remove excess moisture.
After the above process is completed, the ceramic body can enter the firing stage and undergo high-temperature firing to become the final ceramic product. It should be noted that different types of ceramic products may have specific process requirements and technical details during the production process, so the specific ingredient production line may vary.
