Overview of Wood pellet factory
Definition:
The wood pellet factory is a equipment system specially designed for processing wood chips and other biomass raw materials into granular fuels. A combination of equipment that converts waste wood materials such as wood chips, sawdust, corner wood, etc. into high energy density, easy storage and transportation of wood pellet fuel.
(1) First screen the raw materials, remove impurities such as stones and metals, and then crush and dry them to make the raw materials meet the granulation requirements.
(2) Under the action of high temperature and high pressure of the granulation host, the raw materials are extruded into pellets through the mold. The new pellets are cooled, solidified and sieved, and after qualified packaging, they can be used as a clean fuel supply market.
(3) This production line can also produce hay pellets, organic fertilizer pellets, etc., realizing waste resource utilization and green energy transformation.
Working principle:
The working principle of the wood pellet line is to make biomass raw materials into pellet fuel through physical extrusion. We first use a crusher to crush raw materials such as logs and straw into small pieces. Then, we send them into the dryer to remove excess moisture, so that the humidity of the material is suitable for forming. Next, we send the dried raw materials to the granulator and use an extrusion device to press them into granular shape. We can adjust the length of the pellets as needed. After that, we use cooling equipment to cool and shape the newly made high – temperature pellets to prevent surface cracking. Then, we screen them to remove impurities. Finally, we use a conveyor belt to send them to the packaging machine for quantitative packaging. In this way, we can form clean fuel that is easy to store and transport, realizing the efficient and environmentally – friendly utilization of agricultural and forestry waste.

Customize a wood pellet factory
Wood Pellet factory: Process
The wood pellet production line of wood pellet factories is not fixed. We will carry out customized design based on factors such as production capacity, raw materials, and production requirements. The following takes logs as raw materials to introduce the process flow of a 2 – 2.5T/H complete wood pellet factory.
01 Wood Chipping Process
We use conveying equipment to send logs into the chipper. The chipper can cut the logs into thin wood pieces of 3 – 5mm. Such thin wood chips are beneficial for subsequent crushing processes and also facilitate the drying of raw materials.
02 Wood Crushing Process
After the chopped wood chips, we send them into the crushing section. A screw conveyor completes the crushing work. In this link, we mainly crush the small wood chips further into 2 – 3mm wood shavings to meet the raw material size requirements of the granulator.
03 Drying section
The drying process is a very critical step in the entire production process as it directly affects the subsequent granulation effect. At this stage, we usually use professional drying equipment.
During the drying process, we need to strictly control parameters such as drying temperature, time, and ventilation. If the temperature is too high, the wood chips may become over – dry and charred, affecting the quality of the pellets. If the temperature is too low, we cannot effectively remove the excess moisture, making it difficult for the pellets to form during granulation. A reasonable drying time can ensure that the wood chips reach the appropriate moisture content. The control of the ventilation volume is also very important. An appropriate ventilation volume can timely remove the evaporated water vapor, maintain the stability of the drying environment, and ensure drying efficiency and quality.
04 Pelletizing Process
We send the dried wood chips into the granulation section. Before formal granulation, we install special cleaning equipment to effectively screen out impurities such as iron and stone that may exist in the raw materials. Then, the wood chips enter the wood pellet machine for sale through the feeder. Under the extrusion of the press roller and the ring die, they are converted into wood chip pellets. Moreover, we can control the length of the wood chip pellets through a cutting device, and the pellets will eventually be extruded from the ring die hole.
05 Cooling Process of Wood Chip Pellets
After successfully producing high – quality wood chip pellets, subsequent processing is also crucial, such as the cooling process. The freshly made wood chip pellets are often at high temperature and humidity. By cooling them, we can directly cool them to room temperature to avoid surface cracking of the pellets.
06 Wood Chip Pellet Packaging Process
After cooling, we can weigh and package the wood chip pellets. The RICHI automatic packaging machine has the characteristics of large capacity, high efficiency, and convenient operation, which can greatly reduce packaging costs and labor costs.
RICHI Machinery can not only provide Wood pellet factories with this capacity but also customize production lines with a production capacity of 1 – 45T/H based on the raw materials and production needs you provide to meet your various requirements. Learn more.

RICHI MACHINERY
How to Choose the Right Wood Pellet factory
First, clarify the production capacity and quality requirements: We should choose equipment according to our production goals and budget.
- In terms of capacity: If it is small – scale production, such as processing waste from a farm or small factory, choosing a small production line is enough. However, if we plan to produce on a large scale for power plants or export, we need medium and large – scale equipment.
- In terms of quality: We should set standards based on the purpose of the pellets. For example, when used as fuel, we should pay attention to whether the pellets are easy to burn and resistant to storage. If it is used as animal bedding, we should focus on the water absorption and cleanliness of the pellets. Then, we choose equipment that can meet our specific requirements.
Understand the key parameters of the equipment: We don’t need to remember complex data. We mainly need to pay attention to these points.
- Raw material treatment: We need to check whether the grinder can cut the raw materials to the right size (not too big or too crushed), and whether the dryer can control the moisture of the raw materials (not too wet or too dry). If these two steps are done well, the subsequent granulation will be smooth.
- Granulation host: We should check whether the machine has enough power, whether the pellet size can be adjusted (for example, common specifications are 6 – 12mm), and whether it can adapt to our raw materials (such as branches, straw, rice husks, etc.).
- Post – processing: We need to see if the cooling machine can cool down the newly made pellets to prevent cracking, and whether the packaging machine is easy to operate and can package according to the weight we need.
It is important to choose a reliable manufacturer: We should give priority to brands with a good reputation and experience.
- Look at strength: We choose a manufacturer with its own factory and R&D team. Such a manufacturer usually has mature technology and a wide variety of equipment. It can process various raw materials, such as branches, straw, and peanut shells.
- Look at the service: Good manufacturers will provide customized solutions and design production lines according to our site, raw materials, and output. They don’t just sell equipment. After – sales service is also crucial. There should be someone to guide the installation and commissioning, and they should be able to solve problems in a timely manner in the later stage. For example, they can conduct regular follow – up visits and train workers to operate the equipment, which makes it more worry – free to use.

FAQ of wood pellet factory
What is a Wood pellet factory? What equipment are included?
Simply put, a pellet factory is a set of assembly lines that turn raw materials like wood, straw, and rice husks into granular fuel.
There are mainly three steps and corresponding equipment involved:
Finished product treatment: We use a cooler to cool down the freshly made pellets to prevent them from cracking. A screening machine is used to remove impurities. Finally, we use a packaging machine to pack the pellets according to their weight.
Raw material treatment: First, we use a chipper to cut logs into small pieces. Then, we use a grinder to crush these pieces into fine materials. Finally, we use a dryer to control the moisture of the raw materials (the moisture should be neither too high nor too low).
Granulation and molding: The core equipment in this step is the pelletizer. We use it to extrude the treated raw materials into pellets. The size of the pellets can usually be adjusted, for example, within the range of 6 – 12mm. You can find us on YouTube.
