Gypsum board, as a new type of wall material widely used in the field of building decoration, cannot be produced without complete sets of equipment. There are various types of gypsum board equipment, each of which plays a unique role in the production process.
Firstly, the ingredient equipment. The batching equipment is the starting point of gypsum board production, mainly including raw material storage warehouses, feeders, measuring scales, etc. The raw material storage warehouse is used to store various raw materials such as gypsum powder and additives, ensuring continuous supply during the production process. The feeder can transport the raw materials to the measuring scale according to the set speed and quantity, and the measuring scale accurately measures the proportion of various raw materials to ensure the accuracy of the gypsum board formula.
Next is the mixing equipment. Mixing equipment is used to thoroughly mix various raw materials to form a slurry with certain fluidity. Common mixing equipment includes forced mixers and planetary mixers. The forced mixer uses the forced stirring effect of the stirring blades to quickly mix the raw materials; The planetary mixer has the characteristics of high mixing efficiency and good mixing uniformity.
Forming equipment is also an important component of gypsum board complete equipment. There are two main types of molding equipment: slurry method and fixed mesh method. The slurry forming equipment uniformly distributes the slurry between the upper and lower mesh belts to form wet gypsum slabs; The fixed mesh molding equipment injects the slurry into a fixed mold for molding. The quality of molding equipment directly affects the dimensional accuracy and appearance quality of gypsum board.
Drying equipment is used to remove moisture from gypsum slabs to achieve the specified moisture content. Common drying equipment includes tunnel dryers and roller dryers. The tunnel dryer dries gypsum slabs through hot air circulation; The roller dryer utilizes the rotation of the roller conveyor and the blowing of hot air to evenly dry the gypsum slab.
Finally, there are finished product processing equipment, including cutting machines, edge banding machines, etc. The cutting machine is used to cut the dried gypsum board according to the specified size; The edge banding machine processes the edges of the gypsum board to make it more aesthetically pleasing and durable.
In short, there are various types of gypsum board complete equipment, and each equipment works together to complete the production process of gypsum board, providing high-quality gypsum board products for the construction and decoration industry.
