Support and Hub

Functions of the Support and Hub

The Support and Hub are mechanical components within the shaft assembly of extruder machines used in livestock and aquaculture feed processing. These two components work together to locate and support the shaft, reduce friction, maintain shaft concentricity, and stabilize the extruder shaft assembly. As a result, the shaft operates accurately, vibration is minimized, optimal working clearances between components in the extrusion chamber are maintained, and wear on the shaft assembly is reduced during continuous operation under high loads and temperatures.

In livestock and aquaculture feed extruders, the support and hub have a direct impact on operational stability, extruder shaft service life, output product quality, and overall production efficiency. The use of precisely machined components that meet technical requirements and are properly heat-treated helps ensure durable machine operation, lower maintenance costs, and improved long-term production efficiency.

Machining of Support and Hub at Tien Phat Mechanical

The machining of Support and Hub components is a critical process within the shaft assembly of extruder machines, requiring high precision, in-depth knowledge of material properties, load-bearing capacity, wear resistance, and extensive practical experience in mechanical engineering for livestock and aquaculture feed processing. Tien Phat Mechanical selects high-quality steel blanks with excellent load-bearing strength and wear resistance, suitable for the continuous and harsh operating conditions of extruder machines.

The Support and Hub components are precisely machined using advanced CNC systems, ensuring compliance with technical designs and high concentricity. This helps the extruder shaft operate smoothly, reduces vibration, and minimizes wear during operation. The products undergo controlled heat treatment processes to optimize mechanical properties, enhance load and friction resistance, and extend the service life of the shaft assembly.

In addition, a strict quality control system is applied throughout the entire manufacturing process, including inspections of dimensions, concentricity, flatness, hardness, and other critical technical parameters, supported by modern measuring and testing equipment. This ensures that every Support and Hub delivered meets technical requirements and operates reliably and durably over long-term use.
