The incinerator grate bars are the core component of incinerator, which ensures the normal operation and combustion efficiency of the incinerator. The grate bars system is consisting of fixed grate bars and moving grate bars, which push combustible waste into the furnace for combustion through movement. To ensure the grate bar system normal operation and extend the service life, regular maintenance is required, including checking the wear of transmission components and grate bars, cleaning up slag and ash, adjusting burner parameters, etc.
The structure of incinerator grate bars
The incinerator grate system is generally composed of fixed grate bars and travelling grate bars. The fixing grate system is generally composed of grate beams, fixing grate plates, pins, blots, etc. The movable grate system is composed of grate beams, movable grate bars, chains, sprockets, etc. The material of grate bars are cast iron HT200, HT250, RTSi5, ROTSi5, RTCr16, RTCr28, RTCr5, RTCr2Si4Mo, ZG40Cr24 and heat-resistant alloy steel, such as DIN 1.4710, DIN 1.4729, DIN 1.4740, DIN 1.4743, DIN 1.4745, DIN 1.4776, DIN 1.4777, DIN 1.4823, DIN 1.4825, DIN 1.4826, DIN 1.4832, DIN 1.4849, DIN 1.4825, DIN 1.4849, DIN 1.4852, DIN 2.4778. The grate bars produced by Baoding Guokun can assure the heating resistant from 550-1200 °C.
Baoding Guokun can offer the investment casting or sand casting process to produce the customized or standard grate bars as per customer’s drawings.
Investment casting: Investment casting is an industrial metal casting process based on lost-wax precision casting, generally used for producing complex-shaped metal components that require tighter tolerances, thinner walls and better surface finish than other sand cast parts. Baoding Guokun can produce various investment casting parts in low-carbon steel, mild steel, alloy steel, stainless steel for pump, valve, agriculture, railway, road, forklift, tillage, mining, automotive, medical, food, and aircraft, etc.
Sand casting: Sand casting process is an industrial metal casting process that involves creating a mold from sand and pouring molten metal into it, generally used to cast the shaped parts of nearly any design, including large parts and those with internal passages. Baoding Guokun can produce various sand cast parts in cast iron, ductile iron, gray iron, low-carbon steel, mild steel, alloy steel for pump, valve, agriculture, railway, road, forklift, tillage, mining, automotive, medical, food, and aircraft, etc
Most of heat resistant stainless steel moving grate bars are produced by shell mold casting process. Compared with the lost wax investment casting techniques, the shell mold casting techniques are with low cost and high quality.
Working principle of incinerator grate system
The incinerator grate system is designed to push combustible waste into the furnace through the feeding port with the assistance of the moving grate bars movement and burn it at high temperature. Specifically, the travelling grate bars are driven by the chain and moves at a certain speed to push combustible waste into the furnace through the feeding port. In the furnace, combustible waste is rapidly burned by high temperature and oxygen, producing high-temperature flue gas and ash residue. The flue gas enters the waste heat utilization system through the action of the induced draft fan for waste heat utilization, while the ash residue is discharged through the slag removal machine.
Maintenance of incinerator grate system
In order to ensure the normal operation of the incinerator grate and extend its service life, regular maintenance and upkeep are necessary. Baoding Guokun advise to do as per the following aspects:
Maintenance of incinerator grate system | |
1 | Regularly inspect the wear of transmission components, such as chains and sprockets, and replace damaged parts timely. |
2 | Regularly inspect the wear of fixed grate plates and movable grate plates, and replace severely worn components timely. |
3 | Regularly clean the slag and ash inside the furnace to maintain its cleanliness. |
4 | Regularly check the combustion condition of the burner, adjust the burner’s parameters timely to ensure the combustion effect. |
5 | Regularly maintain the entire incinerator system to ensure the normal operation of other incinerator components. |
