Vertical Ring Die Wood Pellet Mill
Vertical Ring Die Wood Pellet Mill Overview
The vertical ring die wood pellet mill, also known as a vertical wood pellet production machine, has its ring die fixed horizontally inside the machine body. The feeding method is that the material falls vertically by its own gravity, which is the main difference between it and the horizontal wood pellet mill.
With its unique top-feed design, the vertical pellet mill machine for wood waste is particularly good at processing various lightweight materials, such as wood chips, shavings, sawdust, straw, alfalfa, rice husks, palm fiber and other biomass raw materials.
Richi Machinery offers a variety of vertical sawdust pellet mills with hourly outputs ranging from 1 to 10 tons. In addition, we can customize integrated solutions to meet specific customer needs based on their actual operating conditions.
Vertical Ring Die Wood Pellet Mill Adantages
This vertical ring die wood pellet mill adopts a unique vertical ring die structure design. Its core components include the ring die pressure roller assembly, feeding equipment, transmission system, automatic lubrication, feeding and cooling system, and transmission system. The quality of the core components directly determines whether the machine can produce efficiently, save energy, and be durable.

01
Ring Die and Roller Assembly
We use 42CrMo alloy steel to make the ring die and pressure roller, and perform carburizing and quenching treatment to significantly enhance the wear resistance of the parts, making them perform excellently when processing coarse fiber raw materials such as sawdust, wood chips, and palm fiber.

02
Gear Drive System
The gearbox outputs ample torque, helping the vertical ring die wood pellet mill generate strong extrusion force, allowing the material to pass smoothly through the die holes. The gears undergo precision grinding and hardening treatment, enabling them to withstand greater loads.

03
Siemens Main Motor
Siemens brand motor provide stable and reliable high-quality power support for vertical sawdust pellet mills, ensuring continuous and efficient mass production, significantly optimizing energy consumption, and effectively reducing production electricity costs.

04
VFD Feeder
To optimize production conditions, the vertical sawdust pellet mill features a variable frequency speed control feeding system, which can precisely control the feeding rhythm and eliminate problems such as material blockage and idling. In addition, the unique vertical feeding method also prevents material bridging and ensures uniform and smooth material discharge.

05
Lubrication System
Our vertical pellet machine for wood waste comes with a circulating thin oil lubrication system. It can automatically lubricate transmission components such as gearboxes and bearings, while also removing heat generated during mechanical operation and impurities such as metal abrasive particles, thereby significantly reducing wear and extending equipment life.

06
Cooling System
The vertical wood pellet production machine comes with a cooling system that can expel the high-temperature, humid air generated during the pelleting process. In addition, the circulating oil lubrication system can significantly reduce bearing temperature and prevent shutdowns due to overheating.
