[0003] Utility model patent CN217189406U discloses a high-speed mixing granulator, which solves the problem that existing granulators are inconvenient to control the mixing ratio of powders during powder mixing, thus failing to control the powder mixing accuracy and affecting production quality. The granulator employs a granulator support frame, intelligent control device, powder mixing chamber, powder measuring cylinder, powder conveying pipe, intelligent conveying valve, processing module, and granulation collection module. This allows for convenient control of the powder mixing ratio during powder mixing, thereby improving powder mixing accuracy and production quality. While the structure is simple, in actual use, although an intelligent conveying valve is used to control the amount of powder conveyed, there is no auxiliary feeding device inside the powder measuring cylinder. During conveying, powder may accumulate in the powder measuring cylinder and fail to fall evenly into the powder conveying pipe, and consequently, into the intelligent conveying valve, resulting in low powder mixing accuracy.
