Research and Application of Intelligent Control System for Uniform Pellet Distribution

In pellet production, the uniformity of material distribution directly affects the subsequent roasting effect and the quality of finished products. Aiming at the problems of uneven distribution in traditional shuttle distribution systems, such as material stacking at both ends of the wide belt, insufficient parameter matching leading to uneven distribution, and reliance on manual adjustment which makes it difficult to adapt to dynamic working conditions, this paper proposes an intelligent control method based on Integral Simulation and Gradient Descent optimization (IS-GD). Firstly, this method combines the structure and operating parameters of the distribution equipment and accurately simulates the material distribution law on the wide belt during the reciprocating movement of the shuttle through integral technology. Based on the simulation results, longitudinal and lateral uniformity discriminant functions are constructed, and a phased gradient descent optimization strategy is adopted to dynamically adjust the shuttle belt speed, walking speed, and operating parameters of each stage with the goal of minimizing the uniformity index. Experimental results show that this method achieves a significant improvement in lateral distribution uniformity without affecting the stability of longitudinal distribution. This research provides reliable technical support for intelligent distribution control in pellet production and helps to improve the roasting quality and production efficiency of pellets.
