A pellet maker is used to form various raw materials into pellets for feed, bedding or energy. A pellet maker is also known as a pellet mill, pellet press or pellet appliance. Either term is a valid description for the equipment. More as well as more people today are interested in a small pellet maker to make their own fuel pellets to heat their abode. We promote a selection of pellet production equipment, including small pellet makers. These small pellet makers are known as flat die pellet mills or pellet makers. The matter is entered into the finest of the machine, in addition to is compressed between a horizontally mounted die. These machines are generally used for small to medium scale pellet manufacture, yet large scale construction can also be achieved by installing multiple pellet makers. The pellet maker must be fed raw matter which has been reduced to small particles. The technique to achieve this is to use a hammer mill. Which will produce particle of 6mm or below.

A wood pellet maker generally has a lower gearing to process wood. The first pellet mills were introduced to shaped animal feed pellets from grasses as well as hay. On the other hand these matter are much easier to process as well as have a lower density. To make biomass pellets more torque or power is required. The small pellet makers in addition to larger pellet makers we promote are geared suitably to process both grasses in addition to biomass into pellets.

There are various attributes the raw material requires before it can be processed into pellets. One of the most crucial material characteristics is moisture content. On average the raw material must be around 15% water. Higher or lower will consequence pellet quality, pellet maker productivity along with power consumption. Therefore for many raw materials a dryer will be required before the pellet maker.
We also promote a assortment of dryers, including air current dryers along with rotary dryers. Air current dryers are also known as pipe dryers or flash dryers. The material is carried in a hot air stream to the end of the pipe, where the hot moist air and dry raw material are separated by a cyclone separator. Pipe dryers are generally used for small scale construction. For larger productivities a rotary dryer is used. The raw material is contained in a rotating drum. And can handle much greater volume of material.
