Enhancement of «Kaskad» Units

The enterprise-producer permanently enhances the produced unit «Kaskad» and adds some options improving the operation of the unit. The results of experiments on the use of the «Kaskad» unit as a granulator for producing fertilizers are presented. The use of special grills and knives with a changing geometry of the working edge as well as the use of the variable, reducing step in the screw part of the unit with simultaneous increasing the drive power makes it possible to produce, on the base of the «Kaskad» unit, a new machine for granulation of raw materials – «Kaskad-granulator».
