investing into wood pellet making machine

Wood pellet making machine is a kind of efficient and economical equipment for making use of the waste wood shaving, wood chip, tree branch, sawdust, wood log, etc. It is now widely used by furniture factory, sawmill, and other woodworking factories.

As a matter of fact, investing into wood pellet making machine can bring you many advantages.

Advantages of investing into wood pellet making machines

• The pellet making machine for wood has low production cost: the cost of wood raw material is almost zero, and the equipment does not need too much investment. It is easy to operate; even a young man with no experience can know how to operate it after learning, so the labor cost is also low.
• Wood pellet making machine can process various kinds of raw materials: not only wood by-products, but also crop waste like straw, stalk, grass, shells, kernels can be processed by the pellet making machine.
• It has wide applications: wood pellets can be utilized by home owners, farm owners, schools, hospitals, hotels, greenhouse runners or power generation plants to replace coal, so wood pellet making machine can be used by home users, small workshops or factories.
• Wood pellet making machine has environmental benefits: it turns waste into wealth. On one hand it increases incomes for people in rural areas; on the other hand it protects environment (Note: wood pellets are much more environmental-friendly than coal).
• It can bring high return on investment: as the prices of coal or other fuel sources are rising fast, investing into such environmental friendly wood pellet making machine will no doubt bring you unimaginable return.

How to select an efficient wood pellet making machine?

Wood pellet making machine uses wood as raw material, while wood has the features of poor adhesive force, low density and hard to be pressed. As a result, only high quality pellet making machine can produce good wood pellets.

The soul of making high quality wood pellets relies on pellet machine roller and die. The compression ratio (the ratio of die hole depth and diameter) of pellet making machine determines whether the machine can produce good pellets or not. Usually the compression ratio is decided by the specific raw material, i.e. for making pine pellets or poplar pellets of the same capacity, the compression ratio is different. And if the raw material is mixture of 2 or more kinds of woods or other plants, the compression ratio also differs.

Besides, for different capacities, the pellet machines are different.

1. If you just need capacity below 400kg/h, you choose flat die pellet making machine. Also, for softwood, you choose D-type flat die pellet machine, while for hardwood, you choose R-type pellet machine that can produce higher pressure to the wood powder.
2. If you need capacity 500-800kg/h, you can choose either flat die pellet machine or small ring die pellet making machine. But their hourly power consumptions are different.
3. If you need capacity above 800kg/h, you can choose large wood pellet making machine, or several sets of flat die pellet machines at will.
