A pellet maker is used to form a selection of raw materials into pellets for feed, bedding or fuel. A pellet maker is also known as a pellet mill, pellet press or pellet machinery. Either term is a valid description for the equipment. More plus more people today are interested in a small pellet maker to create their own fuel pellets to heat their residence. We promote a collection of pellet production equipment, including small pellet makers. These small pellet makers are known as flat die pellet mills or pellet makers. The material is entered into the greatest of the appliance, as well as is compressed between a horizontally mounted die. These machines are generally used for small to medium scale pellet production, however 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 means to achieve this is to use a hammer mill. Which will manufacture particle of 6mm or below.

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

There are a selection of attributes the raw matter 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 as well as power consumption. Therefore for many raw materials a dryer will be required before the pellet maker.
 
We also promote a collection 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 as well as dry raw material are separated with a cyclone separator. Pipe dryers are generally used for small scale manufacture. For larger productivities a rotary dryer is used. The raw matter is contained in a rotating drum. Plus can handle much greater volume of matter.
