C-3000T Powder Feeder

C-3000T Three-Tube Powder Feeder (1 set including 3 powder tubes)

The C-3000T powder feeder is a high-precision powder feeding mechanism with double-rotating structure scraper output, which is suitable for the precise conveying of powder in thermal spraying and laser melting equipment.

The powder feeder has three powder cylinders, one can be loaded with primer alloy powder, one can be loaded with pure white powder, and one can be loaded with gray-black powder, which can effectively avoid the cross-loading of different colors of powder and cause the coating to have impurities and variegation, and each independent powder cylinder is designed with a structure that can be quickly removed.

The powder feeder is displayed with touch screen, and the carrier gas flow is accurately controlled by the imported brand mass flow controller. The internal structure of the powder feeder is provided with a unique sealed self-cleaning structure, which can effectively carry out self-cleaning to prevent fine powder from being mixed in the parts of the equipment, and has a very significant effect on the blockage of fine powder powder, and the coarse powder is not easy to block, and the powder feeder is maintenance-free and worry-free.
Using a small flow of nitrogen or argon as the powder feeding gas, the powder reaches the powder outlet with the rotation of the bottom powder feeding tray and enters the spray gun together with the powder feeding gas, which saves more gas than the traditional medium and high pressure powder feeder.

The biggest problem of the traditional powder feeder is that it is very difficult to clean up the remaining powder, and it cannot be poured out, the powder feeder we developed can easily take off the independent powder cartridge, and the powder cleaning work can be completed in a few seconds, and has been widely used in thermal spraying equipment, and has become one of the latest and indispensable important devices in the thermal spraying industry, and this improvement measure has far surpassed many brands in terms of convenience.

The main structure of C-3000T powder feeder is composed of three independent tanks, an electric control box, a gas control box, touch screen control, rotary drive, etc., and the tank is composed of a double rotating structure turntable, a sealing assembly, a carrier gas assembly, a cylinder head, an observation window and other components.
Under the action of the turntable, the powder fills the groove of the disc, and under the drive of counterclockwise rotation of the continuously variable speed motor, it rotates to the blanking port with high precision. Under the pressure of the carrier gas in the tank and the negative pressure generated by the powder feeding valve, the carrier gas is successively fed into the spray gun system to complete the thermal spraying process. The amount of spraying is controlled by a stepless speed regulating motor. Accurate powder feed greatly improves the uniformity of the coating and the quality of the spray.

Features and specifications of C-3000T powder feeder

• The powder feeder is a high-precision powder feeding mechanism with planetary turntable scraper output, and the powder output is uniform.

• Using small flow of nitrogen or argon as the powder gas, the powder reaches the powder outlet with the rotation of the bottom powder feeding tray, and enters the spray gun together with the powder supply gas, which saves more gas than the traditional medium and high pressure powder feeder.

• Wide range of powder particle size.

1. Zhengzhou Lijia C-3000 powder feeder is widely used in many industries. In the field of thermal spraying, it relies on the double rotary scraper output to accurately feed the powder, stably conveying all kinds of powder to the spray gun, improving the wear resistance, corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance of the workpiece, and is used in machinery manufacturing, aerospace, auto parts repair, etc., such as aero engine blades after treatment.

2. In the laser cladding industry, it accurately controls the powder transportation, helps the perfect fusion of alloy powder and matrix, and realizes the surface strengthening and defect repair of the workpiece, which is of great significance to mold manufacturing and petrochemical equipment maintenance, such as effectively repairing the wear parts of oil pipelines.

3. In terms of powder metallurgy, it can convey metal powder to the forming mold in an accurate proportion to ensure the stability of product composition and performance, improve production efficiency, and have outstanding advantages in the manufacture of complex mechanical and electronic parts.

Product Operate Guide 

1. Safe operation: When loading and unloading power cords and gas pipes, as well as replacing powders and cleaning equipment, the power supply of the equipment must be cut off first, and live operation is strictly prohibited to prevent electric shock accidents. At the same time, during the operation of the equipment, it is strictly forbidden to put hands or other objects close to the running parts such as the powder feeding tray and transmission parts, so as to avoid personal injury.

2. Equipment maintenance: Regularly check the sealing part of the powder feeder to keep it clean to prevent foreign matter from entering and destroying the sealing performance of the system, resulting in air leakage or powder leakage. After the powder feeder is used, the residual gas in the pipeline should be discharged in time, and the main valve of the gas cylinder should be closed, and the pressure reducing valve should be loosened to prolong the service life of the equipment. If the powder feeder is not used for a long time, the remaining powder in the powder cartridge should be cleaned up, and the powder cylinder, powder feeding tray and related pipelines should be blown clean with compressed air to prevent the powder from being affected by moisture and agglomeration for the next use.

3. Troubleshooting: If there is an abnormality in the powder feeding during use, such as unstable powder feeding volume, powder blockage, etc., first check whether the powder in the powder cylinder is sufficient, whether the powder is agglomerate, and at the same time check whether the air path is smooth and whether the air pressure is normal. If it is a powder plugging fault, you can try to remove the inlet pipe and powder outlet pipe, empty the powder in the lower cavity of the powder feeder and the powder storage tank, and then use a straight thin steel wire to gently poke the powder feeding channel from the powder filling port down to dredge. If the problem is still not solved, you should contact the equipment manufacturer or professional maintenance personnel for maintenance in time.

Q1: How about the accuracy of powder feeding?

A: Using double rotation structure scraper output and precise control, the accuracy deviation of powder feeding volume is usually within ±2% (depending on powder and working conditions), which meets the requirements of thermal spraying and laser cladding processes.

Q2: Are there many types of powder that can be adapted?

A: Extensively, metal, ceramic, special alloy powder, etc. can be adapted, and the equipment can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the powder.

Q3: Is the operation complicated? How long does it take for newbies to get started?

A: more humane, turn on the power supply, gas path, after loading, local control in the panel operation knob to select the powder cylinder, start the powder feeding, adjust the speed, novice can basically operate independently for about half an hour, remote control is not difficult.
