Most traditional equipment adopts a split design, separating the weighing and mixing processes. It is necessary to transfer materials manually or mechanically, resulting in cumbersome operation processes, low efficiency, and easy material residue during the transfer process, affecting the proportioning accuracy. In addition, the power transmission efficiency of the mixing mechanism is low, the layout of the spiral blades does not match the fluidity of chemical fertilizer materials, it is difficult to ensure the mixing uniformity, and the level of automatic control is insufficient. It is difficult to achieve precise timing coordination of weighing, discharging, and mixing, relying on manual intervention, and the production efficiency and consistency are limited.
