Compost Turner: Core Equipment for Organic Fertilizer Fermentation

Release time:December 4, 2025

Product Overview
The compost turner is the core equipment for modern organic fertilizer production. Through mechanical turning technology, it provides the necessary oxygen supply and temperature control for the aerobic fermentation of organic waste such as livestock manure, sludge, and straw. As a professional compost turner manufacturer, our products cover various types, including trough type, wheel type, and chain plate type. With high-efficiency turning capacity, intelligent control, and reliable performance, we provide comprehensive solutions for organic fertilizer production.

Working Principle and Technical Advantages

Core Working Principle
Oxygen Supply: Mechanical turning ensures full contact between materials and air, promoting the reproduction of aerobic microorganisms.
Temperature Control: Maintains the compost temperature at 55-70℃, ensuring efficient composting and pathogen elimination.
Moisture Regulation: Promotes moisture evaporation during turning, reducing the moisture content of the materials.
Uniform Mixing: Ensures thorough mixing of materials with inoculants and auxiliary materials, improving fermentation efficiency.
