Raw Material Size Reduction
Before pellet
or briquette compression can take place, the raw material must be
reduced to a suitable particle size. Depending on the raw material
size, a one or two stage size reduction process will be needed.
Chipper /
Crusher Introduction
Depending on
your chosen raw material, the equipment you require for size
reduction may change. For example if you wish to process logs or
large pieces of wood into pellets or briquettes a chipper / crusher
is the first piece of equipment required for size reduction.
A chipper /
Crusher simply works on the principle of a rotating blade. As the
wood comes into contact with the blade, small pieces (chips) are
removed. The chips produced are generally still too large to be used
in the briquette machine or pellet mill, therefore secondary
particle size reduction of the chips is required in a hammer mill.
X Series Industrial Chippers
The X Series
Industrial Chippers are heavy duty chipping solutions. The power
input ranges from 15 to 45Kw, with a productivity of 1 to 3 tons per
hour. A heavy steel frame construction will ensure consistent
chipping performance of logs up to 250mm in diameter.
FSP Series Industrial Hammer Mills
The FSP Series
Industrial Hammer Mills are made from heavy duty steel plate. To
improve performance in processing large quantities of wood chips, a wider crushing chamber is included. The FSP series also
features thickened knives to improve functionality. |
