Straw briquette machine is a kind of biomass fuel production equipment, which can compress crushed straw and other biomass raw materials into briquettes. Corn stalks, sorghum stalks, wheat stalks, peanut shells, bean stalks, sawdust, branches and barks etc can be compressed into blocks by this equipment and used as fuel. Straw briquette machine has the characteristics of high degree of automation, large output, low energy consumption and simple operation.

Matters needing attention in using straw briquette machine:

1.It should be placed on a flat and dry ground, which can be fixed with cement.

2.After installation, carefully check whether the installation is in place, and check whether the screws of each part are fastened. The type of belt drive one should check whether the motor pulley and the spindle pulley are parallel, and also check whether the tension of the drive belt is appropriate. The type of gear transmission should check whether the gear is sufficient.

3.Carefully check the power lines to prevent leakage and ensure the safety of electricity utilization.

4.Before starting, first inject 25kg gear oil (generally, one injection can last for ten years), and then tighten the plug of oil injection hole. Turn the presser wheel by hand first, and check whether the operation is flexible and normal, whether there is any collision between the presser wheel and the mold, whether the rotation direction of the rotor is correct, and whether the lubrication part of the briquette machine is in good condition.

5.Set the temperature according to the kinds of materials (rice hulls and peanut shells are between 80℃ and 100℃, wheat straw and corn straw are between 80℃ and 90℃).

6.Idle for 1-2 minutes after startup, and then feed the materials without any abnormality. The feeding should be uniform. If there is any noise, excessive temperature of the bearing and the machine body or outward spraying, stop the machine immediately for inspection and troubleshooting.

7.Carefully check the materials before feeding to prevent hard sundries from entering the compression chamber and causing accidents such as machine damage. 8. After 300 hours of operation, the roller bearing must be cleaned and the roller lubricating oil should be replaced; when add lubricating oil, it is better to fill 1/3 of the bearing gap, and the maximum should not exceed 1/2.

9.Every 8-10 hours of work, lubricate the roller and spindle bearing once.

10.Stop feeding before turning off the machine, and then cut off the power supply after the materials in standby are discharged clean. Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out after shutdown.

11.When the machine is not used for a long time, the belt should be loosened to prevent the belt from being damaged.

In addition to knowing the matters needing attention in the use of straw briquette machine, it is also necessary to know the daily maintenance methods of straw briquette machine. As the saying goes, “three parts are used, seven parts are raised, and the service life is three times longer”.

In the maintenance of straw briquette machine, prevention is the first. According to the running time, structure, working environment and wear of the equipment, the mandatory regulations are specially formulated. Carry out general maintenance and special maintenance for machinery according to different operation time. General maintenance refers to cleaning up the residual raw materials in the mold and oiling the internal bearings after each use of the equipment. Ensure that the straw briquette machine can run normally next time. Inspection and adjustment of lubrication system, cooling system, filtration system, steering and walking system, braking and safety devices are very important. The workload of daily maintenance is small, and most of the maintenance is outside the machine, and the parts with serious wear and tear should be mainly maintained. Special maintenance refers to: running-in maintenance, seasonal maintenance, stopping maintenance and sealing maintenance. Generally, the special maintenance of straw briquette machine should be arranged temporarily or written into the plan, or it can be decided by combining the usage and working hours of straw briquette machine. The application of biomass fuel can be traced back to ancient times. After the invention of fire, people used firewood to cook and keep warm. Before the popularity of gas, liquefied petroleum gas and electric energy, we used traditional firewood straw as the main energy source. Now, by processing waste into biomass solid molding fuel, we have realized clean production and resource reuse in heating and heat utilization. Biomass briquette fuel, the raw materials are mostly agricultural waste straw, peanut shells, branches, sawdust, and shavings, etc. There is no competition with people for food when bio-ethanol uses corn and other food crops, and there will be no soil erosion and desertification caused by the destruction of forestry resources. With the response of national policies to biomass energy, biomass fuel is becoming more and more popular. People in the biomass industry have not only solved the problem of straw being difficult to handle, but also turned waste into treasure, and also met the requirements of environmental protection.
