Professional design, stable operation, sawdust pellet machine that can operate stably 24 hours a day
A sawdust pellet machine is an energy conversion equipment designed to compress wood sawdust that is produced during woodworking into biomass fuel pellets. These fuel pellets typically have a diameter of 6-10 mm and a length of 3-5 cm. With a density ranging from 1.1 to 1.3 grams per cubic centimeter, the wood pellets can be efficiently transported via belt or screw conveyors. As a result, wood sawdust pellets have become a high-quality alternative fuel source in many countries.
Sawdust pellet machines are divided into flat-die pellet mills and ring-die pellet machines according to molds design. Flat-die pellet mills are mainly used for outputs below 1 ton/h, and ring-die pellet machines are mainly used for outputs above 1 ton/h.
HOW TO CHOOSE A HIGH QUALITY SAWDUST PELLET MAKING MACHINE?
Check the sawdust pellet mill configuration
Examine the configuration of the wood sawdust pellet machine carefully. While a high-end configuration alone does not always guarantee stable performance, a pellet machine with an overly basic setup is more likely to experience frequent breakdowns. To ensure reliable 24-hour operation, our wood sawdust pellet machine incorporates top-quality components, including premium brands and designs for the reducer, motor, ring die material, and spindle design.
Check the lubrication and cooling systems
As a heavy-duty piece of equipment with high energy demands, the quality of the bearings and the design of the lubrication system are critical to ensuring the sawdust pellet mill’s stable operation. Our pellet machine features a dual oil pump lubrication system, and the heavy-duty reducer is equipped with an oil pump for forced lubrication. Additionally, the pressure wheel assembly within the molding chamber is automatically lubricated with high-temperature grease, ensuring a very low failure rate and optimal machine performance.
Check if the pellet mill manufacturer is experienced.
Ensure that the pellet machine manufacturer has experience working with your specific raw materials. Pellet machines are highly customized, and different materials require unique compression ratios. Even the same raw materials can vary in fiber hardness and toughness depending on the climate in which they are grown, affecting the required compression ratio of the pellet machine’s mold. Choosing an experienced supplier can significantly reduce the trial and error costs associated with pellet production.
PRELIMINARY TREATMENT BEFORE MAKING SAWDUST PELLETS
There are two key requirements for raw materials used in wood pellet machines:
- The size of the wood chips should generally be within 10 mm. Here, “10 mm” refers to the length of the chips, not the length and width. The diameter of the wood chips typically should not exceed 2-3 mm. Therefore, smaller wood chips that do not meet this requirement must first be processed by a hammer crusher before pelletizing.
- The moisture content of sawdust should not exceed 20%. While pellets can still be pressed with moisture levels above 20%, this can lead to reduced machine output, rough pellet surfaces, and a shorter storage life for the pellets. If the moisture content exceeds 20%, a tumble dryer is recommended for proper drying before processing.
For many customers, the sawdust size and moisture can up to requests, but there are some wood chips or wood blocks mixed in the raw materials. This is also not acceptable, because it will damage the mold of the sawdust pellet making machine, so it is necessary to use a wood chip drum screener to screen out the wood chips and blocks.

VERTICAL RING DIE PELLET MACHINE
VS
HORIZONTAL RING DIE PELLET MACHINE
When selecting a wood pellet machine, you may often wonder: which type is better？a ring die pellet machine or a flat die pellet machine? The answer depends on your capacity requirements and the characteristics of the raw material fibers. If your output needs are less than 1 ton per hour, a flat die pellet machine is the most suitable option. For outputs exceeding 1 ton per hour, a ring die pellet machine is the better choice.
Now, how do you make decision between a horizontal or vertical ring die pellet machine? Here’s some suggestions:
- If your raw material is wood sawdust, a vertical ring die pellet mill is preferable, as wood sawdust require more pressure than other materials, and this machine is equipped with a heavy-duty reducer.
- If you’re producing animal feed pellets and the feed contains a low percentage of grass, a horizontal ring die pellet machine is ideal, offering lower energy consumption and higher output.
- For loose, lightweight materials like crop straw used to produce high-density fuel pellets, a vertical ring die pellet machine is recommended, as its vertical feeding system prevents clogging and ensures efficient operation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the sawdust pellet machine price?
The price of a wood sawdust pellet machine varies based on the output capacity and model selected. A small homemade sawdust pellet machine starts at around $2,000, while standard industrial models typically range from $20,000 to $30,000. For an exact quote, please feel free to contact us.
what type of pellet mill is better?
Flat die pellet mill and ring die pellet mill each offer distinct advantages. Flat die pellet machines are easy to operate and maintain, but their output is limited to a maximum of 1 ton per hour due to the flat die design, with the die diameter typically not exceeding 560 mm. On the other hand, ring die pellet machines have a more complex design, requiring specialized maintenance training. However, they offer a minimum output of 1 ton per hour, making them ideal for larger wood sawdust pellet production lines.
except for the sawdust pellet-making machine, what other machines do I need?
In addition to the wood sawdust pellet machine, the drum screener is one of the most commonly used pieces of equipment. It efficiently removes larger wood chips and blocks from the sawdust, helping to extend the pellet mill mold’s lifespan and increase the pellet machine’s output. If the raw materials contain a significant amount of large wood chips or blocks, it’s advisable to use a wood hammer mill to process all the material before pelletizing.
