Equipment Videos
These three videos show our EFB pelleting solutions designed for different clients.The first customer from Nigeria runs a small palm‑processing workshop on a tight budget. Its raw materials are palm kernel shells and EFB, sun‑dried on‑site by the client. We only supplied the crusher, small pellet mill and post‑processing units. For the second Indonesian customer, we provided him with three EFB pellet mills to meet his demand of 6-8 tons per hour. The third client in Thailand is a palm‑oil mill group. Its fresh feedstock contains 50‑60% moisture. Finished pellets are partly for internal plant use and partly for external sales.
Real‑life projects prove our strong technology and reliable equipment. We never apply uniform standard designs for all clients. Instead, we deliver personalized EFB pellet lines based on clients’ specific circumstances. RICHI delivers full‑range turnkey services covering site planning, installation and training. You only need to prepare your land and raw materials to start producing finished pellets.

EFB Pellet Machines for Sale Worldwide
RICHI has completed dozens of palm EFB pelleting projects covering various capacity tiers. Below showcases a selection of our recently handed-over projects for your review. You may contact our staff at any time to obtain further projects upon request.
2.5-3 T/H Date palm EFB pelletizer for sale Saudi Arabia
The customer’s raw materials are empty fruit bunches and date palm leaves. These unprocessed materials cannot be pelletized directly. Given the long EFB fibers, we equip a twin‑shaft shear EFB shredder for pre‑treatment.
6-8 T/H EFB pellet mill for sale Indonesia
This large biomass pellet producer mainly uses local EFB, together with palm kernel shells, wood shavings and rice husks to produce fuel pellets. To ensure stable production capacity and that the finished product meets export quality requirements, we employ a parallel configuration of three pellet mills with independently adjustable process parameters, easily adapting to fluctuations in raw material availability.
3-4 T/H pKS+EFB pellet maker for sale Malaysia
The client processes both palm kernel shells and empty fruit bunches. Long‑fibered, high‑moisture EFB requires cutting and drying, while hard, low‑moisture PKS needs crushing. So, we design a separate pre‑treatment route for each material before pelletizing. Two processed materials feed into one mixing silo, blend at preset ratios and go to pellet machines.
1.5-2 T/H EFB pellet machine for sale Congo
The customer has a limited budget for the EFB pellet line. We optimize the configuration with only one EFB pellet mill and essential auxiliary units to cut costs. Furthermore, the workshopis too narrow for a standard layout, so we adopt a pit‑mounted design. This compact solution keeps investment low while ensuring stable operation.
1-1.2 T/H EFB pellets machine for sale Thailand
This client runs a palm oil mill. Waste materials will be made into pellets for power generation in the mill’s boilers, with small batches for extra sales. Fresh EFB has conains 50-60% moisture, requiring drying before pelleting. The overall solution prioritizes a simple layout, a short return on investment period, and compatibility with the mill’s continuous production schedule.
4-5 T/H palm fiber+EFB pellet machine for sale papua new guinea
The customer blends palm fibre and EFB for better pellet forming performance. Therefore, we install a shredder and twin‑shaft paddle mixer for pre‑treatment. The pelletizing stage uses two EFB pelletizers to ensure continuous production. A ring die compression ratio of 5.5–6.5 ensures pellet strength.

EFB Pellet Production Process
The process for pelleting empty fruit branches is not static. Different raw material moisture contents, raw material forms, and the intended use of the finished pellets require different processing techniques. For example, if the raw material is a mixture of different palm waste materials, the palm waste must first be crushed to 3-5mm. If the raw material has a high moisture content (>20%), it usually needs to be dried first.
Therefore, we customize optimal EFB pellet production lines based on customers’ specific raw material properties and finished product application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can your EFB pellet mill directly process raw materials with a moisture content of 60% or more?
→
No, it cannot be pelletized directly. EFB must first be shredded and dried to reduce the moisture content to 12%–15% before entering the pellet mill. We can provide complete pretreatment solutions.
How many tons per hour can an EFB pellet mill produce? Is the output stable?
→
Depending on the model, the stable hourly output of a single EFB pellet mill is generally 0.2-4 tons. Actual output is affected by the effectiveness of raw material pretreatment, moisture content, and operational factors.
Is the equipment prone to clogging? How can this be prevented?
→
EFB fibers are long and easily entangled, which can lead to blockage if pretreatment is insufficient. We employ variable frequency forced feeding, overload protection, and anti-entanglement shredding design, and recommend configuring pretreatment equipment such as magnetic separators and crushers before the pellet machine, which can significantly reduce the risk of material blockage.
Do I need to buy drying and crushing equipment when I buy an EFB pelleting machine?
→
This depends on your raw material. If the raw material is uncrushed and has a high moisture content, then it needs to be crushed and dried; otherwise, the pellet mill will not operate stably. We can provide you with a complete production line solution.
Can palm shells or palm fibers be processed simultaneously?
→
Yes. We recommend a “separate pretreatment, combined pelleting” approach. For example, shred and dry EFB (palm fiber), crush palm shells separately, and then mix them in a proportion before feeding them into the EFB pellet making machine.
What is the approximate investment for an entire EFB pelleting line?
→
Taking a complete 2-3T/H production line as an example (including shredding, drying, pelleting, cooling, screening, and packaging), the investment typically ranges from US$110,000 to US$270,000, depending on the configuration, level of automation, and materials used. We can customize a solution based on your production capacity and budget.
What’s the after-sales service like? Are spare parts readily available?
→
We provide on-site installation, commissioning, operation training, and spare parts supply. We also offer a one-year warranty and regular inspection services. (view our YouTube)
