Two types efficient compost windrow turner for animal waste composting
When you choose compost turning machine, what functions do you pay more attentions to? They may be capacity, energy consumption, operation and maintenance. SEEC, a manure to fertilizer equipment manufacturer, can provide you high-quality equipment and services. SEEC windrow compost turner includes crawler type compost turner and self-propelled compost turner. Both of them will be your best assistants in composting animal manure.
Crawler type manure composting equipment
SEEC crawler type compost turner adopts rubber track chassis, which can provide sufficient support for machine body during operation. In addition, its roller with stirring tooth and push plates adopt hydraulic drive, which can improve turning efficiency. During working, the crawler type compost turner will span over the compost pile. At the same time, its turning device will evenly stir and remix materials in the compost pile.
In addition to adjust fermentation conditions by turning, this kind of compost turner also can crush caking into small pieces. It uses diesel oil as fuel. Finally, you just need designate one person to operate this machine. The driver can monitor the whole machine in the driver’s cab that can isolate heat generated by composting and odor. It has four models, SEECLDF-2300, SEECLDF-2600, SEECLDF-3000 and SEECLDF-3000 (full hydraulic). Its turning speed is 6-10m/min. Ans its power ranges from 75hp to 143hp.
Self-propelled compost turner (Moving type compost turner)
The design and structure of self-propelled compost turner is simpler than that of crawler type compost turner. It adopts four wheels, so it is flexible in operation. In view of simple operation, it is widely used in farm and small-scale organic fertilizer production. It is suitable for composting various animal manure and agricultural wastes. Its working principle is similar to crawler type.
When it moving forward, the rotary shaft with turning tooth underneath the machine will rotate at a constant speed and turn the materials evenly. After turning, the materials in the inner part and outer part will be mixed evenly for further fermentation. With the help of compost windrow turner, you will get quality compost in 20-30 days. In order to better adjust moisture, you can equip compost turner with water spray system, which can add water to compost pile in time.
What’s the role of compost windrow turner in windrow composting?
During manure composting system, many factors influence the quality of compost, including moisture, temperature, oxygen content, PH value and so on. Compost windrow turner will evenly turn the compost pile and remix organic wastes. In this way, windrow turner can indirectly adjust fermentation conditions. microorganisms will consume oxygen, moisture to digest organic matters in animal waste. When the windrow composting facility turns the compost pile, the heat and water which is in form of vapor will escape from the compost windrows. At the same time, materials in different parts will be remixed for uniform composting and fully contact with air. With favorable moisture, temperature and oxygen content, fermentation will go smoothly.
