How to Improve the Technical Level of Hydraulic Compost Turning Machines

  • 2026-02-02

Improving the technical level of hydraulic compost turning machines hinges on achieving precise operation, intelligent control, and durable structure.

  1. Precise Operation: Establishing a Dynamic Parameter Model

Dynamically adjust based on different material characteristics:

  • High-moisture, viscous materials (e.g., chicken manure): rotation speed 28-32 r/min, travel speed 0.4-0.6 m/min, focusing on preventing material from sticking to the walls.
  • Loose materials (e.g., straw): rotation speed 10-15 r/min, travel speed can be increased to 1.0-1.5 m/min, focusing on mixing efficiency.
  1. Intelligent Control: From Timed to “On-Demand”
  • Sensor linkage: Integrated temperature and oxygen sensors. When the pile core temperature >65℃ or oxygen <5%, composting is automatically triggered.
  • Algorithm optimization: Using intelligent algorithms to adjust speed and power in real time, reducing energy consumption by 20%-30%.
  • Remote monitoring: Enabling unattended operation.

III. Durable Structure: Addressing Clogging and Wear

  • Anti-stick design: Using hard alloy blades and anti-stick coatings to reduce adhesion by approximately 70%.
  • Hydraulic protection: Automatically lifts when encountering hard objects through sensors to prevent jamming.
  • Precise movement: Using magnetic navigation or gear tracks, achieving positioning accuracy of ±2 cm.
  1. Preventive Maintenance
  • Hydraulic system: Regularly check oil quality and replace the filter element quarterly. Preheat the machine without load before starting in winter.
  • Daily maintenance: Check tightening and lubrication before each shift, and clean accumulated material after each shift. Change the gearbox oil after the first 200 hours of operation.
