In addition to the customer's concern about the high consumption of electrode paste; there is also the problem of electrode paste caking. The causes of electrode paste caking and how to solve it are also an important aspect that the customers are concerned about. The phenomenon of electrode paste caking is also called electrode suspension paste phenomenon. The electrode suspension paste occurs when the electrode paste block is stuck in the electrode cylinder and cannot descend, resulting in a large gap in the middle of the electrode paste. When measuring the electrode paste column during suspension paste, the paste column does not change for a long time. After a little longer, a large amount of yellow smoke will emerge in the electrode cylinder. If the suspension paste is not handled in time, it will cause the electrode to break hard or soft, or even explode in the electrode cylinder.

1. Large electrode paste block: It gets stuck in the electrode cylinder and cannot descend.

2. Excessive height of the paste column: The low temperature at the top of the electrode makes it difficult to melt.

3. Low winter temperature: The heating elements are turned on and off repeatedly, resulting in insufficient sintering.

4. Foreign objects fall in: Large-sized foreign objects fall into the electrode cylinder and block the electrode paste channel.

1. Control the height of the paste column: Adjust the height according to the process requirements to avoid being too high or too low.

2. Optimize the particle size: Ensure that the electrode paste particle size meets the requirements, avoiding being too large or too small.

3. Continuous heating: In winter, the heater needs to be kept running continuously to avoid frequent on-off.

4. Strengthen protection: Cover the electrode cylinder with a lid to prevent foreign objects from entering.

5. Handle promptly: If the paste column does not change for 8 hours, use a rope to tie a heavy object to drop it or cut open the electrode cylinder to clean it.

Therefore, the more you understand the electrode paste, the easier it is to find that the problems caused by the electrode paste often cannot be simply attributed to the quality of the electrode paste. In fact, the importance of furnace operation is beyond doubt. Rongxing electrode paste is willing to grow together with customers in the continuous research and improvement of the practical application of electrode paste!
