Wool pellet machine
The wool pellet machine is a highly efficient equipment specially used to mix wool with other materials into granular products. Unlike the simple processing of wool, this equipment mainly mixes wool with materials such as sheep manure, organic fertilizer, plant residues, etc., crushes, mixes, and conditions them in appropriate proportions, and then presses them into uniform organic fertilizer granules or biomass granules.
This machine is made of advanced granulation technology and high-quality materials. It has the characteristics of high efficiency, low energy consumption, and easy operation. It is particularly suitable for the recycling of agricultural organic waste, farm fertilizer self-sufficiency, and environmentally friendly granular energy production.
If you want to recycle wool and other agricultural waste and make high-value-added granular products, then this wool pellet machine is undoubtedly your ideal choice. Please note that this equipment is not suitable for processing pure wool alone, but is designed and optimized for the composite utilization of wool and other organic materials.
About wool pellet machine
Wool has a wide range of uses. In addition to being used to make textiles such as wool sweaters and blankets, it can also be used as a source of organic matter required for plant growth and participate in the production of organic fertilizers. In recent years, more and more farms and environmental protection projects have begun to pay attention to the resource reuse of waste wool. One of the efficient ways to use it is to use a wool pellet machine to pelletize it into composite biomass pellets.
The wool pellet machine does not directly pelletize pure wool, but is a pelletizing equipment used to process wool and other materials (such as sheep manure, organic fertilizer, straw, sawdust, etc.) mixed in proportion. Through scientific allocation of raw materials, waste wool can be effectively integrated into the biomass raw material system, and finally pressed into composite organic pellets with a compact structure, balanced nutrition, easy storage and application, which plays an important role in agricultural planting, soil improvement, etc.
This wool pellet machine adopts a ring die design, mainly composed of core components such as frequency conversion feeder, pressing chamber, high-strength ring die and roller assembly, Siemens motor, etc., with stable operation, low energy consumption, strong adaptability, and is widely used in farms, self-employed households and small and medium-sized organic fertilizer production enterprises.

Working principle of two types of wool pellet machine
Usually, wool pellet maker machine can be divided into two types: flat die pellet machine and ring die pellet machine.
Flat die wool pellet machine
Flat die pellet machine has small output and narrow application range, but it is cheap. If your budget is low and you don’t have high demand for pellet production, you can consider this type of machine.
This machine is suitable for mixing wool with sheep manure, organic fertilizer, straw and other raw materials for granulation. The working principle of the flat die pellet mill is to put the crushed wool material into the feeder of the pellet mill. The material is flattened on top of the flat die and the spindle drives the rollers around the spindle. The rollers continuously press the material that is flattened against the open mold plate.
The wool material is extruded through the mold openings in the die plate and rollers, and the extruded cylindrical pellets are then cut by a scraper under the die plate to obtain the desired size of wool pellets.
Ring die wool pellet maker
Ring die wool pellet mills, on the other hand, have a wider range of uses, with high output and low energy consumption, and are suitable for both personal use and business use.
The equipment is designed for processing wool mixed with other agricultural organic materials such as sheep manure, straw, husks, etc. The principle of operation is that the crushed wool material is loaded into a feeder which is equipped with an anti-arching bin to avoid wool arching and facilitate subsequent pelletizing. Then the crushed wool enters into the pelletizing chamber and fills the inner wall of the ring die, the spindle rotates at high speed, the pressure roller rolls over the material layer continuously and continuously, and squeezes the wool material into the die hole of the rice changer. Eventually the wool pellets are molded in the die holes and extruded in cylindrical state, and then cut off by the cutter device to form pellets, which are discharged at the discharge port.
Applications of wool pellet machine
The wool pellet machine is a typical biomass pellet machine. It does not directly make pure wool into pellets, but is used to process a mixture of wool and other raw materials (such as sheep manure, organic fertilizer, crop straw, etc.), and press these raw materials into high-density pellets after mixing them. It is widely used in agricultural organic fertilizer, biomass fuel, horticultural soil improvement and other fields.
This machine can effectively process various biomass raw materials, such as sawdust, bagasse, cassava residue, alfalfa, miscanthus, cow dung, chicken manure, etc. When these raw materials are mixed with wool in proportion, they are pressed into pellets by the wool pellet machine, which not only improves resource utilization, but also improves the combustion value or fertilizer performance of the pellets.
In addition, the wool pellet making machine supports customized production capacity and is suitable for pellet plants and production lines of various sizes. By replacing the ring die and adjusting the position of the cutter, pellets of different diameters and lengths can also be flexibly produced to meet the diverse needs of different customers in agriculture, energy or environmental protection.
The biggest use of wool pellet machine is for making high quality wool pellets. But what are the advantages and benefits of wool pellets and how to make them? Do you know about these? Let’s get to have a look to understand it below!
Benefits of pellets made by wool pellet machine:
Wool pellets compressed by a wool pelletizer have a wide range of uses, both as a natural fertilizer to improve soil fertility and as animal bedding, among other things. Below are some of the benefits of wool pellets summarized by RICHI Machinery for your reference.
- Wool pellets as a value-added product from waste wool, maximizing the value of wool and helping to improve the economic stability of agricultural producers.
- Wool pellets can serve as a fertilizer to improve the soil and help crops or plants to grow.
- Compressing wool into pellets reduces the size of the wool, reduces floor space and facilitates transportation and storage.
- Wool pellets can also help to get rid of pests. This is because wool is a natural repellent for slugs, snails, pests, and weeds. Placing wool pellets around the base of plants can help keep them safe.
- Wool pellets can hold up to 20 times their weight in water, helping to reduce the frequency of watering. It also retains moisture and draws excess water away from the plant, preventing it from being overwatered.
- Wool pellets are a renewable resource and are rich in nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, and other nutrients, making them a natural fertilizer.
- Mixing wool pellets into the soil also provides aeration. Because wool pellets expand when they absorb water, they help increase the oxygen level in the soil, promoting better plant growth.
How to make wool pellets using wool pellet machine?
With the continuous development of pellet manufacturing technology, pellet machines and pelleting processes are becoming increasingly advanced and intelligent. Using a wool pellet machine to mix wool with other organic raw materials (such as sheep manure, organic fertilizer, etc.) to make high-density pellets has become an efficient way to recycle resources. The following is the basic process of using a wool pellet machine to produce pellets.
01 Raw material crushing (wool + other organic matter)
First, the wool needs to be mixed with an appropriate amount of auxiliary raw materials (such as dry sheep manure, fermented organic fertilizer, grass, etc.), and then crushed into 2-3mm fine materials using a crushing equipment. The mixed and crushed raw materials are easier to enter the wool pellet machine pelleting chamber for pressing.
02 Wool moisture treatment
Before pelleting the mixed raw materials, it is necessary to check their moisture content. The optimal moisture content is about 13%-16%. If the raw materials are wet, they need to be dried; if they are dry, they need to be adjusted by adding water or adding wet raw materials.
03 Granulation of mixed raw materials
The processed mixed materials are evenly fed into the granulation chamber by the feeder and pressed into compact, regular cylindrical composite pellets under the high pressure of the ring die and the roller. These pellets have a dense structure and high combustion efficiency, and can also be used in organic fertilizer production.
04 pellet cooling
The temperature of the newly produced wool composite pellets is relatively high, and a cooler is required to cool the pellets to room temperature to maintain the strength and storage stability of the pellets.
05 Finished product packaging or storage
The cooled pellets can be packaged into bags through an automatic packaging system as needed for easy sales or storage and transportation; they can also be directly stacked for agricultural fertilization or biomass fuel use.

FAQ related to the wool pellet machine
What is a wool pellet machine
The wool pellet machine is a special equipment that converts wool waste into dense composite pellets after mixing it with other organic matter (such as sheep manure, fermented organic fertilizer, grass powder, etc.). In practical applications, wool is usually not used alone for pelleting, but mixed with materials with good adhesion and nutrients to improve the pellet forming rate, practicality and market value.
The raw materials that have been crushed and mixed are sent to the wool pellet machine by the conveying system. Through the high-pressure extrusion process of the ring die and the roller, the raw materials are pressed into regular cylindrical pellets. These pellets have a compact structure, high density, and stable finished products, which are easy to store and transport.
This wool mixed pellet has a wide range of uses: it can not only be used as a natural organic fertilizer to improve soil structure, but also can be used in garden planting, greenhouse agriculture and soil improvement projects, with good environmental protection and economic benefits. With the promotion of organic agriculture and renewable resources, the acceptance of wool pellets in the domestic and foreign markets continues to increase, making the wool pellet machine one of the environmentally friendly pellet equipment worth investing in.
What materials are suitable for wool pellet machine?
Wool pellet machine is a kind of equipment that mixes wool with other organic materials to make pellets, rather than being dedicated to pure wool pelleting. This machine is widely used to process various biomass raw materials, especially for preparing mixed organic fertilizer pellets rich in nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.
For example, it can process short-fiber wool, textile scraps, low-grade wool, and organic waste such as sheep manure from livestock farms. By mixing and pelleting with other nutritious raw materials, the resource utilization efficiency can be significantly improved, while providing high-quality fertilizer for agricultural production.
Typical raw materials suitable for wool pellet machine pelleting include:
Mixture of sheep manure and wool
Wool + organic fertilizer (such as chicken manure, cow manure, kitchen waste compost)
Combination of defective wool with auxiliary materials such as sawdust and straw
Before the formal pelleting, the mixed raw materials need to be processed in size and moisture. For example, crush the oversized wool debris, adjust the moisture content to a range suitable for pelleting, and dry or add water if necessary. Through these steps, it can be ensured that the mixed raw materials enter the pelleting process smoothly and obtain high-quality pellet products.
Is wool pellet machine worth the investment?
In the long run, a sheep wool pellet machine is worth investing in.
On the one hand, the raw material for a wool pellet making machine is cheap and easy to obtain. That is to say, the cost of making wool pellets is very low, and enterprises only need to invest a very small amount of raw material cost.
On the other hand, wool pellets belong to renewable resources, in line with the trend of environmental protection and sustainable development. Moreover, wool pellets have a wide range of uses and are very popular in the market. Enterprises can profit from selling wool pellets. Although the wool pellet machine needs some equipment investment in the beginning stage, the economic benefits it brings cannot be ignored.
