Swing Granulator

Whether it be a wet powder or a pack of dry block materials, the Laboratory model swing granulator will develop the material into fine and consistent granules. The swing granulators come with an elastically adjustable wire screen mesh that is easy to assemble and disassemble. The main elements of the Laboratory swing granulator machine are composed of an enclosed steel-plated body and a lubrication system that enables it to run smoothly without producing any unnecessary noise.
The Lab scale swing Granulator is a popular granulating machine used for size reduction or forming the required granule sizes from moist powder material or for crushing dried block stock, sensitive powders, and granules in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. swing granulation makes the quality of granules better by facilitating their flowability and handling.

Swing Granulator Introduction

The swing granulator is also called the oscillating granulator, the sway granulator is the most important wet granulation machine. YK series laboratory swing granulators are usually the key equipment of the instant granule production line. The laboratory pellet production line includes the following equipment: Laboratory high shear granulator, Laboratory swing granulators, Laboratory dryer (laboratory hot air oven, laboratory vacuum shelf dryer), and Laboratory powder shifter. This laboratory production line can make the dry powder into uniform and instant granules. If the customer wants to make the final pellets into a ball shape, the wet pellets will be sent to the QL pelletizer to obtain wet pellets and dried by a dryer. Hywell Machinery also has an industrial swing granulator if a high-volume granulator is required.

Swing Granulators Description

The Swing Granulator has one rotor, which oscillates on a horizontal axis. There is one screen of your required mesh size mounted at the bottom of the rotor which can be removed and remounted easily; its tension is also adjustable. The product is loaded from the top through the infeed hopper, and the material falls on the rotor blade. The particles are broken down by a set the oscillating rotors as it moves from side to side. The sharp edges on the rotor, the oscillating movement of the rotor, and the subsequent pressure of the product against the screen allow the size reduction of the granular material to take place as the material gets pushed through the screen mesh.

The driving mechanism of the lab swing granulator is totally enclosed in the machine body and its lubrication system improves the lifetime of the mechanical components. These granulators are constructed with quality stainless steel to meet the GMP standard. The YK Series wet granulator machine is among the most affordable oscillating granulators in the laboratory.

Types of Swing Granulators

There are mainly two types of swing granulators: Single rotor swing granulators and double-rotor swing granulators. Single-deck swing granulators are used for small-scale production while double-deck swing granulators are used for large-scale production. but lab-scale swing granulators just have one rotor model.

How do the Laboratory Swing Granulators Works

The lab swing granulator is mainly composed of a hopper, a drum, a screen, etc. The rotating drum is installed under the hopper, and there are sealed end covers at the front and rear. The rotating drum can be removed and cleaned at any time, as long as the front adjusting screw and front cover are removed Remove the three screws from the front end cover, and then the roller can be taken out.

Laboratory swing granulator machine uses mechanical transmission to make the cage drum rotor reciprocate to perform forced granulation or collision crushing of the material. The gap between the screen and the rotating cage is controlled and the granules are extruded. Its production capacity is as follows The moisture, type, viscosity, and mesh of the material vary, and different particle sizes can be obtained by changing the aperture of different screens.

Components of Swing Granulator

The swing granulator consists of various components. the Oscillating Granulation machine includes the feeder hopper, rotor, sieve, hand wheel, Motor and Gearbox, and Control Panel.


1. Feed Hopper

The feed hopper is used to load the materials to be granulated. Since the swing granulator can be used for wet granulation, the hopper is designed to hold pre-wetting materials. and the hopper is made of stainless steel and all welded and polished.


2. Swing Rotor

The swing rotor comes in a stainless-steel construction. the rotor is mounted at the bottom of the feed hopper. This component features multiple arms that are arranged in a cylindrical fashion. These rotor arms with sharp edges function as blades to break down the large agglomerates. base the machine model, one set machine can install one rotor or two rotors. The rotor works by oscillating and rotating on a horizontal axis. It rotates from side to side to crush the oversized product to be granulated.


3. Sieve

The sieve comes in a perforated metal sheet. It functions as a mesh screen and half wraps around the oscillating rotor from the bottom. With a stainless-steel construction, the sieve works to grade and screen the particles crushed by the oscillating rotor.

The oscillating granulator sieve is available in various sizes and perforated types. Sieve helps achieve the desired particle sizes depending on your production needs. Our sieve has a round and square model. The perforated metal sheet's smallest hole is 1.5mm, if the hole is small than 1.5mm, it can use the steel net sieve or nylon sieve.

4. Hand Wheels

The swing granulator machine generally has a pair of hand wheels. They come with removable bars to secure the sieve and adjust its tension. When the mesh screen needs to be replaced, you can unscrew the retaining nuts to pull out the adjustment bars without tools.


5. Motor and gearbox

The oscillating granulator machine drive unit includes the motor and gearbox. and the motor gearbox is installed on the base of the wet granulator. The rotor is driven by the motor and gearbox to deliver oscillating and rotating motions for the granulation process.


6. Control Panel

the control panel is composed of a Start button, a Stop button, an Emergency Stop button, and power indicators. 


Swing Granulation Advantages

Hywell machinery YK series lab swing granulation Machine had the following advantages over conventional solutions.

1. Uniformly granulation & fewer fines of wet material and dry materials.

2. Easy to operate; move, clean, convenient

3. Smooth running, reliable performance, easy operation.

4. Low noise and good seal
