A Variety of Pellet Mills for Home Use with Different Driven Motor


It would be impossible to make wood pellets without a pellet mill. A small wood pellet mill for home use is enough, and it can make wood pellets from a variety of biomass materials, like: sawdust, wood chips, wood shavings, rice husks, straw, grass, groundnut shell, small branches, and bagasse, etc.

The primary processes of making wood pellets at home are mainly as follows.

1. Pulverize some of the biomass materials into the same sized powders. And it’s easier for you to achieve this with the help of a hammer mill.
2. Dry these powders and make their moisture content less than 15%.
3. Put these well prepared powders into the feeder of wood pellet mill for home use, and they will be pressed into the holes of the die under high pressure and high temperature by a series of rollers. A knife will cut the emerged pellets into the same set length.  
4. Cool the finished pellets completely for later storage.
