why start wood pellet production?
— Richi Machinery —
The reasons for starting a wood pellet processing business mainly include market demand, environmental protection advantages, economic benefits and raw material acquisition.
- First of all, as a kind of biomass energy, wood pellets have a very large market demand. With global energy demand growing and an emphasis on renewable energy, wood pellets are widely used in areas such as home heating, heating and power generation. It can replace traditional fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil, reduce dependence on fossil energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Especially in places such as Europe and the United States, wood pellets have been widely used in heating stoves, factory and corporate boilers, etc., and the market size continues to expand.
- Secondly, wood pellets have significant environmental advantages. As people’s awareness of environmental protection increases, governments around the world continue to introduce new environmental policies to encourage the use of clean energy. As a renewable energy source, wood pellets do not produce harmful emissions during use and help reduce environmental pollution. For example, in some areas, wood particles have replaced plastic products to reduce plastic pollution.
- In addition, there are significant economic benefits to starting a wood pellet processing business. The production of wood pellets requires a large amount of raw materials, which can be collected from rural areas to help farmers increase their income sources and promote the development of the rural economy. At the same time, with the improvement of production technology, the production cost of wood pellets has gradually decreased, further promoting its market competitiveness.
In general, the wood pellet processing business not only conforms to the trend of global energy transformation and meets market demand, but also has significant environmental and economic benefits, so it has very broad development prospects.
Our customers receive more than typical engineering, procurement and construction services from us. We offer you all services along the value chain from a single source. We call this concept “Turnkey”.

Wood Pellet machine Price
The wood pellet machine price is generally 10,000-100,000 USD, which is the price of a single pellet mill for wood. But generally speaking, except for customers who need to replace the wood pellet machine, for most other customers, it is not enough to know the price of the biomass wood pellets machine, because to realize the processing of wood pellets, multiple wood pellet machine plant equipments are often required.
No matter which country you are from, the price is the same, the only difference is the shipping cost and some customized designs.
It can be understood that most customers need a complete wood pellet plant system, but the design of each customer’s wood pellet system is different, and the price is also different. This is related to many factors, which requires understanding the customer’s wood pellet plant site planning, processing raw materials and other production conditions.
- Taking the processing raw material as an example, if it is dry sawdust, the customer’s granulation system will be relatively simple, because it does not require a lot of pre-treatment equipment.
- If the customer’s raw material is a log with high humidity, it needs to be configured with a more complex wood pellet plant configuration, including wood splitter, slicer, pulverizer, wood chip dryer, etc.
In addition, wood pellet making equipment capacity is also an important factor affecting the wood pellet machine cost. Finally, it is the use of the material, whether it is for self-use or sale; the properties of the finished product such as particle size and moisture content of the output will affect the investment cost of the wood pellet processing system to a certain extent.
According to the above factors, RICHI engineers will come up with a set of detailed customized solutions that meet the needs of customers, including wood pellet machine price and selection, so it’s impossible to simply tell the wood pellet machine price without being sure of the customer’s needs.
Richi Machinery specializes in wood pellet machine for sale. If you have a demand for wood pellet equipment, you are welcome to consult online or WhatsApp, and Richi Machinery will customize a wood pellet plant configuration that is more suitable for your specific situation according to your output, raw materials, and finished pellet size.
RICHI Wood Pellet production Process
— Richi Machinery —
According to the working principle of the wood pellet machine, the raw material processing and production is divided into two main parts, one part is from the pulverization of logs to produce clean and uniform size (less than 3 mm in length) sawdust; the other part is the pressurized granulation and cool, packaging.
The continuous wood pellet plant of wood pellets is divided into 4 production sections, namely material preparation section, crushing and drying section, pelletizing section, inspection and packaging section. The material preparation section includes processes such as chipping, wood chip storage, and wood chip screening; the crushing and drying section includes coarse crushing, drying, and fine crushing, inspection, packaging and other processes.
Richi Machinery specially focuses on wood pellet factory construction and wood pellet machine for sale. The design, production, installation, trial operation and other links are fully undertaken by Richi Machinery to achieve full control of each link. Customers can monitor the progress of the wood pellet factory project in real time, and the quality of the project is guaranteed.the construction period is greatly shortened. The following is a step-by-step and detailed explanation of the wood pelletizing plant process.
Detailed introduction of standard wood pellet plant process: (Take wood chips as an example)
Wood debarking machine
Wood splitting machine
wood chipper machine
wood pellet cooler
wood pellet screener
wood pellet bagger
Material Preparation Section
The purchased wood raw materials are generally 1.2-2m in length, 3-8cm in diameter, and 40%-50% in moisture content. Direct crushing will consume a lot of energy. At present, the more mature process is to first go through a chipper to chip. The length of the wood chips (width and thickness are both smaller than the length) should be controlled below 3 cm.
Drying Section
After the processing in the material preparation section, the logs have been processed into clean wood chips with a length of less than 3 cm, and the moisture content is generally in the range of 30% to 40%.
Pelletizing Section
After the wood chips come out of the wood pellet hammer mill, they are directly sent to multiple best wood pellet machines through the distribution bin for granulation. The formed wood pellets pass through the pellet cooling machine and the screening machine, and the unshaped wood pellets are separated from the qualified products and directly sent back to the wood pellet machines for re-granulation.
Packaging Section
The qualified wood pellets are cooled by the pellet cooler machine and then sent to the automatic packaging line.
The packaging line adopts automatic bagging machine, which has the advantages of high production efficiency, good packaging quality, and stable weight control. Operations such as shaping have been fully automated, maximizing the efficiency of the wood pellet production line.

Here are a few wood pellet production processes we designed for different needs. If you have pellet processing needs, feel free to contact us to obtain process flow charts, equipment configuration plans, and quotes.
01
1-1.2T/H wood pellet machine plant design
This design comes from the wood pellet machine for sale Ghana project. The customer uses two raw materials, logs and sawdust. Logs are processed into sawdust by slicers and hammer mills. The original sawdust raw materials are cleaned by drum screens and then transported to the drying drum together with the crushed sawdust. After that, the dried sawdust with a moisture content of about 15% enters the storage bin and then enters the wood pelletizer for pelleting. After pelleting, it goes through cooling and screening stages and finally packs.
02
2-2.5T/H wood pellet machine plant design
This design is from the wood pellet machine for sale Romania project. The customer uses sawdust as the only raw material. The customer’s sawdust is very clean and does not contain impurities, but it has a high moisture content, so it needs to be dried in a sawdust dryer. This is a disconnected design. The dried sawdust is piled in the factory and continuously transported to the conveyor by a forklift, and then to the wood pelletizer for pelletizing. Like most standard wood pellet production lines, the pellets are successively sent to the cooler and screener, and finally packaged.
03
3-3.5T/H wood pellet machine plant design
This design comes from the wood pellet machine for sale Argentina project. The customer uses logs as raw materials. First, the logs are sent to the slicer through a conveyor, and then the wood chips are sent to the wood hammer mill to get sawdust of about 3mm. Since the moisture of the raw materials is higher than 20%, the sawdust is sent to the dryer and then to the biomass silo for storage. Subsequently, the sawdust in the silo will be sent to the pelletizer for pelleting, and then to the cooler, vibrating screen and baling scale to finally get qualified bagged wood pellets.
04
10-12T/H wood pellet machine plant design
This design comes from the wood pellet machine for sale Bangladesh project. The project was completed in July 2024. The customer purchased two identical wood pellet production lines with a total investment of nearly US$900,000 for the two sets of equipment. The raw materials used by the customer are various wood wastes, mainly wood chips. Only a small part of the raw materials (2t/h) need to be sliced. The moisture content of all wood chips meets the pelletizing requirements. According to the requirements of the plant setting, the raw materials are directly sent to the drum screen through a long conveyor belt for impurity cleaning, and then crushed. The crushed raw materials are still passed through the pelletizer, cooler and screening machine to each pellet product. This project will use a ton bag scale for packaging.
05
24-30T/H wood pellet machine plant design
This design comes from the American project of wood pellet machine for sale. Due to the large output, the project consists of multiple crushers, wood pelletizers, and drying drums. The raw materials of this project include logs, planks, branches, etc. All raw materials need to go through the slicing section and then enter the hammer mill to get sawdust. Then, the sawdust will be piled in the factory building, and then pass through the conveyor to the drying section to get sawdust with qualified moisture. Subsequently, the qualified sawdust will be sent to the pelletizing section, cooling section, and screening section one after another. Finally, the qualified wood pellets will be packaged and sold.

Generally speaking, large-scale wood pellet machines have more advanced design, better stability and performance, large motor power and torque, wide moderation, easier production, easier scale effect, and lower production costs. The overall stability of the machine is good, and the wood pellet machine cost is naturally high.
Richi Machinery not only provides a single wood pellet machine for sale, but also a complete set of wood pellet plant equipment. With the help of RICHI’s complete wood pelletizingsolutions, customers can choose within a more precise range even if they do not know the equipment, reduce energy and financial investment, and focus on controlling the project progress.
how does a wood pellet machine work?
Whether it is sawdust, shavings, or wood log, tree trunks, branches, or heavy wooden pallets, our wood pellet machines for sale, covers the entire process chain of processing all types of wood pellets.
Under the condition of high temperature (the wood pellets making machine operating temperature of the wood pellet machine, no additional heating device is required), the lignocellulose contained in the wood chips can be softened, thereby increasing the cohesive force of the lignocellulose, and under the action of external pressure, the wood Cellulose molecular clusters are dislocated, deformed, and extended, and the adjacent biological pellets inside are bonded to each other, recombined, and pressed into shape.
RICHI wood pellet machine adopts annular die and matching cylindrical pressure roller as the main working parts, which is mainly composed of feeding, stirring, transmission and lubricating systems. Because the axis of the die is usually arranged horizontally, it is often called a horizontal ring die wood pellet making machine.
The raw materials are stirred and mixed by specially configured copying plates in the batching bin, quenched and tempered, and then the screw feeder feeds the materials into the electric wooden pellet machine for granulation.
In the best wood pellets machines, the screed plate evenly distributes the quenched and tempered materials between the ring die and the pressing roller. The ring die is driven by the motor to rotate, and the two pressing rollers installed in the ring die only rotate but do not revolve under the action of the material between the die rollers and the friction between them.
Due to the rotation of the ring die and the pressing roller, the material between the die and the roller is clamped and squeezed, and finally extruded continuously from the die hole in a column shape, and then cut into a certain length of pellets with a cutter.
Note: Generally speaking, the compressed wood pellet machine does not work alone, and also needs a lot of equipment to cooperate. Therefore, a complete set of wood pelletizing plant system process mainly includes raw material drying, pulverization (dust removal), air conveying, collection, raw material mixing and stirring, screw conveying, granulation molding, cutting, cooling, packaging, storage and other processes.
Richi Machinery is not only focusing on wood pellet machine for sale, but RICHI wood pellet production line solutions have become more and more mature after nearly 30 years of operation. This type of solution includes technical assistance in the entire process of production line design, site planning, and process plan, and is tracked and responsible by the project manager, making the project progress and cost input more clear.
Could you explain in detail the process flow design of Material Preparation Section?
- First, the wood chips are transported horizontally to the magnetic separator, the wood chips without metal are sent to the next section after a 45°turn, and the wood chips and metals with metal are turned by 135°and then sent to the impurity outlet to be removed from the wood pellet machine plant;
- The wood chips after metal removal are sent to the next screening process by vertical wind lifting. During the vertical lifting process, due to the large proportion of sand and gravel, they cannot be transported by the lifting wind, so they will be trapped in this wood fuel pellet plant process;
- After the wood chips are lifted, they are transported horizontally again. In this link, the wood chips need to pass through a filter screen of a certain length. The wood chips larger than the filter screen aperture cannot enter the next wood pellet machinel process and will be sent back to the chipper for reprocessing.
- The wood chips containing metal, unqualified wood chips, sand and metal and other sundries in the raw material are all screened and removed in this section, and the qualified wood chips are sent to the coarse pulverizer by the bucket elevator and belt conveyor for pulverization.
Note: The processed wood chips are stored in the wood chip bin through screw conveyors, belt conveyors and bucket elevators. (If the raw material is logs or very thick trunks, you need to add wood splitter equipment; if it is dry sawdust and shavings, after cleaning and magnetic separation, it can be directly sent to the pellet mill for wood);
The processed wood chips usually contain impurities such as soil, sand, and metal, which will cause great wear to the pellet mill for wood; in addition, wood chips longer than 3 cm do not meet the processing requirements of the next section, so an air-selection and dry-cleaning system is added in this section, to remove impurities and screen the wood chips.
Could you explain the process design of the wood drying section in detail?
In order to further reduce energy consumption and make full use of solar energy, a transparent material preparation shed should be used to centrally store the processed wood chips, and the moisture content of the wood chips should be reduced to 20% to 25% under the conditions of natural light and ventilation. After storage and drying, the wood chips are sent to the crushing system.
- First, the clean wood chips enter the coarse pulverization process of the pulverizing system. Generally, a hammer mill is used, which can pulverize the wood chips to wood chips with a length of 5-6 mm.
- Then, it is directly dried in the pipeline of the channel dryer, and the heating medium of the dryer is clean high-temperature flue gas.
- The dried wood chips are sent to the water conditioning system. The water conditioning system can control the moisture content according to the drying conditions of the wood chips. The moisture content of the wood chips from the water conditioning system is controlled at about 10%.
- The wood chips with qualified moisture content are then ground by a fine pulverizer, and the diameter of the pulverized particles is less than 3 mm, so as to meet the requirements of the industrial wood pellet machine for processing raw materials.
Horizontal Wood Pellet Machione Vs Vertical Wood Pellet machine
Some people will look for horizontal wood pellet machine for sale online, and some people will look for vertical wood pellet machine for sale. As a professional compressed wood pellets machine manufacturer, Richi Machinery will objectively compare the two types of products for everyone.
01 Origin
The horizontal sawdust wood pellets machines originated earlier than the vertical ring die biomass wood pellet machine and is mature and stable. The horizontal ring wood pellet machine originated in 1883, and the vertical wood granulator originated in Shandong Province, China in the past ten years. Compared with the vertical wood pellet machine, the horizontal wood pellet machine has a longer service time and higher stability.
02 Applicability of raw materials
The horizontal wood pellets machine has high torque, low speed output, and wide applicability to raw materials. It can be used for raw materials such as high moisture, uneven thickness, and complex types. Vertical ring die wood pellet machines are very “picky” about raw materials.
03 Sealing
The granulation chamber of the horizontal pellet mill for wood is sealed, and all the raw material dust is isolated in the closed space of the ring die to eliminate the phenomenon of ash leakage.
The main shaft of the vertical automatic wood pellet making machine is installed vertically, and the dust raw material is in direct contact with the transmission mechanism, which increases the wear of the transmission mechanism.
04 Granulation quality
Due to the large mass of the drive wheel and the ring die, the horizontal biomass wood pellet making machine rotates around the axis and generates a large torque relative to the material. During the process, the material is formed at high speed and high pressure to achieve high-quality pellets.
Vertical biomass wood pellet making machines are directly bearing with pressure roller, light weight, small relative rotational inertia, slow pressing material speed, and the molding effect is slightly worse than horizontal type.
05 Parts replacement and material blocking maintenance
The door cover of the horizontal saw dust wood pellet machine is opened on the side, which is convenient to replace the wearing parts. The main shaft of the vertical wood pellet machine must be removed to remove the machine, which is troublesome to maintain.
When the horizontal type encounters material blockage or boring machine, it can be cleaned up by shutting down the door and opening the door cover. The vertical wood pellet machine must disassemble all the mechanisms above the ring die to clean it.
In addition, the horizontal automatic wood pellet machine has an overload protection device, which can respond quickly and protect the motor and transmission parts, while the vertical type does not.
06 Pelletizing and molding
The feeding method of the horizontal biomass sawdust wood pellet machine is equipped with a forced feeding device, which can force the material into the granulation chamber and increase the filling rate of the granulation chamber. The material is easy to shape. The vertical wood pellet machine relies on the material’s own weight to fall into the granulating chamber.
If the auxiliary materials are uneven or the thickness of the material varies greatly, the material with large mass sinks to the bottom first, and the material with light weight always floats on the top, which eventually leads to the difficulty of the material forming.
07 Service life
The high temperature in the pelletizing chamber of the sealed horizontal biomass wood pellet machine causes the ring die to frequently damage the bearings. The vertical commercial wood pellet press roller is installed vertically, due to neutral reasons, the bearings are often burned due to lack of oil.
The above is the difference between the horizontal commercial wood pellet machineand the vertical wood pellet machine. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. When choosing a wood pellet machine mill or a manufacturer who focus on wood pellet machine for sale, you should purchase the corresponding supporting equipment and determine the model and quantity of the supporting equipment.
What Is Wood Pellets?
Wood pellets refers to the use of forest tending and felling residues, as well as wood processing residues, sawdust, bark, etc. as raw materials, under high pressure (49-196MPa) and heating conditions, compressed into granular and solid moldings , its density can reach 1.1-1.5 t/m3, and its calorific value can reach more than 4500 kcal/kg. It has combustion characteristics equivalent to secondary bituminous coal, and its ash content is less than 1.5%.
Generally, the wood pellet machine mill is suitable for molding when the moisture content is 12%-15% and the size of the raw material before enter in the wood pellet machine is less than 5 mm.
Factors affecting the output quality of industrial wood pellet machine
01 Tree Species
The chemical composition, cellulose content and calorific value of different species of wood will affect the quality of wood pellets. Among them, the calorific value is also very different depending on the tree species and their proportions.
Different tree species have different wood fibers. The wood of tree species with fine fibers has good flexibility, good shape of sawdust, and is easy to be pelletized by wood pellet machines, such as poplar, pine, etc.; tree species with thick fiber have poor flexibility, the sawdust is broken, and pelletizing is difficult to shape.
02 Wood Density
Sawdust with low wood density has good plasticity and is easy to form.
03 Wood Moisture Content
The moisture content of wood has a great influence on the production of wood chips. With high moisture content, the wood is easy to stick in the wood pellet hammer mill , and the output decreases rapidly. The moisture content of wood chips before pelleting should be controlled between 10% and 15%, otherwise the pellets will burst due to excessive internal steam.
04 Production Equipment
Wood pellet machines are key factor affecting the quality of wood pellets, especially wood pellet machines, wood pellet hammer mill and wood dryers. Their mechanical properties have a great impact on the output of the wood pellet plant and the quality of pellets.If you are looking for wood pellet machine for sale, find Richi Machinery.
The Raw Materials requirements Of Wood Pellet Machine
The requirements for the raw materials of the biomass wood pellet machine directly affect the quality of the wood pellets. Only by controlling the raw materials can high-quality pellets be made. So, what are the requirements for raw materials when the industrial wood pellet machine is pelletizing?
01 Material Size
When the electric wood pellet machine is granulated, the size of the raw material is required. Generally, the size of the raw material after crushing must be less than 5MM.
The specific crushing size is also determined according to the expected diameter of the pellets and the size of the diameter of the electric pellet mill die. If the raw material is crushed too large or too small, it will affect the output and quality of the pellets, and even cause no material.
02 Raw Material Moisture
When the wood pellets are granulated, there are also strict requirements for moisture. No matter what kind of raw material, the moisture must be controlled within 12-18%. If the moisture is too large or too small, the pellets will be easily broken or loose.
03 The Raw Material Completely Gets Rid Of The Sticky Agent
There is no need to add any binder when making wood pellets, because wood chips themselves are a kind of crude fiber raw material and have certain adhesiveness. Then it can be formed naturally after being squeezed by the wood pellet machine.
Don’t be afraid if you encounter raw materials without adhesiveness, RICHI ring die wood pellet making machines can help you. This biomass wood pellet machine can produce strong pressure due to its special structure, and it is the nemesis of difficult-to-form raw materials. The resulting pellets are dense and smooth.
04 Different Raw Materials Can Be Mixed For Pellet Mills Granulation
The pellet mill for wood is not only able to use one kind of sawdust for pelleting, but also can be mixed with other kinds of sawdust. In general, it can also be mixed with crop straw, fruit shell, peanut shell, straw and so on.
The pellets made by mixing other varieties of sawdust are still high-quality pellets, and the pellets mixed with straw, because the quality of the straw itself is not as good as that of the sawdust, the quality of the pellets will be slightly lower, and at this time, it cannot be called wood pellets but straw pellets.
05 Do Not Be Afraid Of Mildew Of Raw Materials
Sometimes there are more raw materials collected, and if they are not used up for a while, the raw materials will be mildewed and blackened. At this time, the pressed pellets cannot reach the required density and heat, and it is a pity to throw them away.
There is no need to worry about the mildew of the raw materials, as long as we add more than 50% of the fresh raw materials, the more new raw materials are added, the higher the quality of the pellets will be. The specific situation depends on the customer’s needs.
Richi Machinery always adheres to customer-centricity, using new technology to make products from every tiny component to the whole wood pellet plant machine, have a strong technical guarantee and build core competitiveness!
