A major Italian organic fertilizer producer faces a market challenge. Demand for granular products grew, but existing technologies were not suitable for delicate raw materials. The client needed a solution, which would provide high quality granules without compromising the biological value of vermicompost. After a detailed analysis of various granulation methods, the choice fell on dry pressing technology. Together with the customer, we worked out the parameters of the future line. The result was the decision to supply a roller granulator with a capacity 1 ton per hour. This unit will become the main one for the implementation of a pilot project for granulating vermicompost. The main task at the first stage is a comprehensive assessment of the operation of the equipment and the characteristics of the finished product. The success of this project will open up opportunities for scaling up production. If you have similar tasks, we are ready to offer you a comprehensive solution.

What difficulties arise when granulating vermicompost and how to overcome them?
The process of organic granulation is associated with a number of difficulties. Vermicompost often has unstable humidity and structure. Firstly, this leads to poor flowability and sticking of the material. Secondly, it is difficult to achieve the strength of granules without the use of chemical binders. Third, thermal treatment methods are unacceptable, because they destroy beneficial microflora. Our roller granulator solves these problems using the dry pressing principle.. The unit creates high mechanical pressure. Thus, raw material particles adhere tightly to each other. The technology eliminates heating and the addition of third-party substances. Hence, the product retains all its organic properties and biological activity.
What are the key advantages of the roller granulator in this project??
The device has proven its effectiveness in several areas. The main advantage is stable output granule quality. The equipment ensures accurate dosage and uniform compaction of raw materials. Next, We note the exceptional energy efficiency of the installation. Low energy consumption directly reduces the cost per ton of finished products. Ease of operation and maintenance was also important to the client.. The design of the granulator is thought out. The operator quickly masters the controls. Besides, minimal number of moving parts increases the overall reliability of the vermicompost pelleting line. These factors together give the client confidence in a smooth production process.

What are the results of test operation and plans for the future??
The first launch of the equipment confirmed all calculated indicators. The unit consistently produces 1 a ton of pellets per time. The resulting granules have a perfect round shape and high strength. This significantly improved the presentation of the product. Besides, all agronomic properties of the raw materials have been preserved. A successful test proved the reliability of the vermicompost granulation line. The client was completely satisfied with the quality of our granulator. Now he is studying the resulting granules in detail.. A positive result opens the way for further expansion of cooperation. The issue of supplying additional units of equipment to increase the overall production capacity is already being discussed..
