Therefore, the mixing effect of the raw materials plays a decisive role in the quality of the titanium alloy electrode pressed product. At present, when the titanium alloy electrode is produced, the raw materials are mixed in the mixing assembly, and then the mixed raw materials are fed into the press mold by a conveying belt. Although this method realizes the function of rapid feeding of the raw materials, since the raw materials are composed of sponge titanium, alloy and other materials, the particle size and properties are obviously different, and when the mixed raw materials are transferred to the press mold by means of static flow, chute material transfer or conveying belt feeding, the raw materials will be stratified during the transfer process, which not only weakens the mixing effect, but also seriously affects the quality of the titanium electrode product pressed by the subsequent press, increases the probability of waste product rate, causes a large amount of material waste, and is not conducive to mass production of titanium electrodes.
