AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for mixing electrolytic aluminum covering materials suffer from problems such as segregation, uneven mixing, low automation, and inability to accurately control the proportions, which affect the thermal insulation performance of the covering materials for electrolytic cells.
The material is precisely proportioned and uniformly mixed by using bin one and bin two to connect to the cover material rotary valve and the alumina rotary valve respectively. The operating speed of the discharge valve and the design of the diversion valve are controlled by the frequency converter. The material is then mixed in layers and segments using a non-powered mixing bin, and finally uniformly delivered on a horizontal belt conveyor.
It achieves precise proportioning and uniform mixing of electrolytic aluminum covering material, solves segregation and stratification phenomena, improves automation, reduces labor costs and time, and ensures the thermal insulation performance of electrolytic cell covering material.
