Fertilizer Screening and Packaging

In modern fertilizer production, screening and packaging are crucial steps before the finished product leaves the factory. A professional screening and packaging production line, through its integrated design of “grading and screening – impurity removal – precision packaging,” not only improves product appearance and quality but also directly impacts storage, transportation, and final usage effectiveness. This system is suitable for the large-scale production of various granular and powdered fertilizers and is core equipment for achieving fertilizer commercialization and standardization.

How the Production Line Works: Process and Core Equipment

A typical screening and packaging line begins with the receipt of granulated or dried fertilizer. The material first enters a grading and screening machine via a closed conveyor system. For common granular fertilizers (such as compound fertilizers), a drum screen is typically used. Its multi-layered replaceable screens accurately separate qualified particles (e.g., 2-5 mm) and remove oversized pieces, fragments, and impurities. For powdered fertilizers, vibrating screens are more commonly used, effectively controlling dust while performing fine screening.

The screened qualified fertilizer is then conveyed to an automatic quantitative packaging scale. Modern packaging scales offer high precision, with an error controllable within ±0.2 kg. They support rapid packaging of various sizes from 10 kg to 50 kg, processing dozens to hundreds of bags per hour. Subsequent automatic sewing, labeling, and even palletizing can be integrated into the automated production line. Throughout the process, defective materials screened out can be returned to the previous process for reprocessing, significantly reducing waste.
