The main characteristics of the chain plate flipping machine

Low flipping resistance, power-saving and energy-saving.
The flipping support plate is equipped with a flexible tensioning and elastic shock absorption system to protect the transmission system and working components. The number of teeth on the flipping support plate is large, with strong crushing ability, increasing the contact area between the material pile and the air, and improving the aeration effect. Can be operated remotely to improve the operating environment.

What Makes a Chain Plate Turning Machine Different?

Unlike other compost turners that use a rotating roller, a chain plate type turning machine uses a series of scraper plates mounted on two heavy-duty chains. This unique mechanism is designed to scoop material from the very bottom of a deep pile and lift it to the top.

Imagine a large, wide soil tiller or a bucket excavator working horizontally. That is the basic idea behind our machine. It travels along the walls of a fermentation trough. The two robust roller chains drive the scraper plates. These plates dig deep into the compost pile, scraping material from the bottom layer. They then carry this material up and over, dropping it on the top of the pile. This action provides an extremely thorough and uniform turning effect. It breaks up clumps and ensures that every part of the pile gets the oxygen it needs for rapid aerobic decomposition. This method is far more powerful and effective for very deep or dense piles where other machines cannot reach the bottom.

What Other Equipment Might You Need to Start?

Beyond the compost turner, a few other machines can make your small composting operation much more efficient and professional. These machines help you prepare materials and finish your final product.

To create high-quality organic fertilizer, you need more than just a compost turner. At Fude Machinery, we provide a complete solution. Before composting, large or clumpy materials like caked manure or straw should be broken down. A fertilizer crusher is essential for this, ensuring that the material composts evenly and quickly. After the composting process is complete, a screening machine is used to separate the fine, finished compost from any oversized pieces that haven’t fully decomposed. This guarantees a uniform, premium product that is easy to spread. For farms looking to sell their compost, an automatic packaging machine allows you to bag your fertilizer efficiently for the market. We can help you build a full organic fertilizer production line that fits your scale.

Selection and configuration recommendations

Based on production capacity requirements

• Small farms: Choose a machine with a turning width of 2-4 meters and a power of 15-30 kW.
• Large composting plants: We recommend a machine with a large span of 6-8 meters, a power of 75-150 kW, and a transfer car slot replacement system.

Key configuration options

• Automated system: PLC control enables intelligent planning of the turning path, reducing human error.
• Wear-resistant teeth: For high-fiber materials (such as straw), hard alloy teeth can be selected to extend service life.
• Corrosion-resistant design: Stainless steel chain plates must be used in sludge treatment scenarios to prevent corrosion by acidic substances.

Application scope of chain plate rake machine

The organic fertilizer chain plate flipper is suitable for large-scale continuous deep tank aerobic composting of organic solid waste such as animal manure, sludge, garbage, etc.

It is a specialized, heavy-duty solution for operations that handle specific types of challenging organic waste. If you run one of these facilities, this machine is your best choice.

We designed the chain plate type turning machine for the most demanding composting jobs. It is the ideal solution for:

• Municipal Sludge Treatment Plants: Municipal or industrial sludge is very dense, wet, and sticky. The powerful scooping action of the chain plates is one of the few methods that can effectively turn and aerate this material without getting bogged down.
• Large-Scale Livestock Farms: Especially large cattle farms. Cow manure is often wet and compact. The chain plate turner can handle this heavy material easily and work with the very large volumes produced by big farming operations.
• Large Organic Fertilizer Producers: If your plant processes a wide variety of raw materials, including difficult ones like food waste or certain types of agricultural residue, the chain plate turner offers the versatility and power you need.

For these applications, the machine ensures a complete fermentation process, which is critical for producing safe, high-quality organic fertilizer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Question 1: Does this machine require special troughs to be built?
Yes. The chain plate turning machine runs on rails that must be mounted on top of sturdy, parallel trough walls, usually made of concrete. Part of our service is to provide you with the detailed engineering drawings for constructing these troughs to match the machine you order.

Question 2: How fast does it turn the compost?
The travel speed is adjustable and depends on your material. A typical working speed is between 1 and 3 meters per minute. The machine is designed for slow, powerful, and thorough turning rather than high speed. A single pass is usually enough for one day’s turning.

Question 3: What is the main difference between this and a trough turner with a roller?
The key difference is the turning mechanism. A standard trough turner uses a spinning roller with teeth to shred and flip the top layers. A chain plate turner uses a scooping mechanism to lift the entire profile of the pile from the bottom to the top. This makes the chain plate model superior for deeper and stickier materials.

Fertilizer manufacturing equipment

Raking machines are machinery used to process organic materials, with a variety of types to adapt to different work scenarios and needs. The main types include slot type raking machines, track type raking machines, chain plate raking machines, and disc type raking machines. These raking machines have their own characteristics and can be selected according to specific requirements.

The chain plate type turning machine is the premier choice for large-scale facilities facing the challenge of composting difficult organic waste. Its unique design allows for unparalleled turning depth, superior handling of sticky and dense materials, and highly efficient use of space. By investing in this heavy-duty machine, you are ensuring a more thorough fermentation process, which leads to a higher-quality final product and a more profitable operation.
