Working Principle
Let’s get to know the main working principle of RICHI Machinery’s MZLH series wood pellet press machine. The wood pellet press features a horizontally arranged ring die structure, delivering stable output, high automation, and extended service life, which is the best choice for commercial biomass pellet factories.
During this process, the wood pellet press machine employs physical compression molding technology to complete the conversion through four key steps:
- Raw Material Crushing : Crushing raw materials into particles measuring 3-5mm in size
- Moisture Adjustment : Controlling raw material moisture content within the optimal range of 13-18%
- High Temperature Compression : Forcing wood fibers to naturally bond through high-temperature, high-pressure extrusion through molds
- Molding and Cooling : Cutting into shape followed by cooling to improve pellet durability

Core Components Display
Next, let’s explore the core components of RICHI Machinery’s MZLH series wood pellet press machine. We design each unit with high quality materials, such as stainless steel construction, Siemens motors, and SKF bearings, which ensures the wood pellet press’s high efficiency, stability, and excellent results.
Ring Die
The ring die is a critical component for pellet forming, which is made from high-quality alloy steel through precision machining. The die’s aperture size and open area ratio are scientifically calculated to ensure both production output and pellet density and forming efficiency. The surface undergoes special heat treatment for strong wear resistance.
Cutting Device
The cutting device is responsible for cutting the wood pellet particles extruded from the mold holes, which ensures the final pellet length meets the predetermined requirements. Operators can control the length of the wood pellets by adjusting the distance between the cutter and the ring die, so as to obtain pellets of different lengths.
Siemens Motors
We utilize Siemens motors as the power source, which provides reliable power support for wood pellet presses. Famous for their high efficiency and stable performance, Siemens motors ensure the wood pellet press machine maintains consistent productivity for a long time.
Electronically Controlled System
The electronic control system monitors and adjusts equipment operating parameters, including feed rate, pelleting chamber temperature and pelleting device operation. Operators can utilize the automated control system to make adjustments in time, in order to adapt to different raw materials and production requirements.

Full-Process Wood Pellet Production Line
Here I will take raw material as logs as an example and introduce you the process of 2-2.5T/H complete wood pellet plant in detail. The production process for wood pellet lines does not adhere to a fixed standard; production techniques, equipment configurations, and manufacturing technologies can all be customized to meet your specific requirements.
1.Wood chipping
First of all, the logs enter the chipper through the conveying equipment, the chipper can cut the logs to 3-5mm thin wood chips, which is convenient for the subsequent crushing process, and also beneficial to the drying of raw materials.
2.Wood crushing
This step is fundamental to ensuring effective pellet formation. For different types of raw materials, the equipment is provided with different specialized crushing devices. Finally, all raw materials are transformed into powdered material with a particle size of 3-5mm, which is convenient for subsequent pelleting.
3.Wood Drying
Wood waste often contains high moisture levels. Excessive moisture not only hinders the formation of wood pellets during production but also causes the final product to mold and deteriorate during storage. The drying system of the machine will rapidly reduce raw material moisture to approximately 15% through precise temperature control.
4.Pelletizing
We offer wood pellet press for sale with different pellet specifications according to various situations, usually ranging from 2 to 12 mm in size. In the pelletizing section, the wood chips enter the wood pellet press machine through the feeder and are converted into wood pellets under the extrusion of the pressure rollers and the ring die.
5.Pellets Cooling
The freshly produced pellets are at a high temperature and will first pass through a cooling device to reduce their temperature to room temperature. They are then processed through a shaking machine to remove a small amount of dust and crumbs, which can produce the final pellets.
6.Weighting and Packing
After cooling, we can weigh and pack the wood pellets to maintain a sealed state for our products. This prevents the pellets from absorbing moisture for the better storage.
