Customized whole set wood pellet making machine prices
The complete whole set wood pellet making machine price is 50,000-3,000,000 USD. The complete wood pellet making machine plant here refers to a complete system, not only a single wood pellet machine.
- The wood pellet mill price is fixed and is available to global customers at the same price.
- The complete wood pellet production line price changes with the customer’s process needs and raw materials.
Generally speaking, a wood pellet machine cannot support the entire wood pellet production process. Therefore, from the processing stage of wood waste raw materials to the formation of wood pellets, different processes and equipment are required to form a complete wood pellet processing system, and then form a complete production process.
- The complete wood pellet making process includes wood raw materials crushing, drying, pelletizing, cooling, and packaging. This process is relatively complete, but not every customer needs it, and it can be customized according to actual needs.
- Accordingly, the equipment needed in the whole set wood pellet making system includes wood crusher or chipper, woo dryer, wood pelleting machine, cooling system, and packing system. Depending on the type, shape, and moisture of the raw materials, You can choose the process and equipment according to your needs.
To facilitate understanding, the following is an list of several typical situations:
- If your raw material is clean, dry sawdust without impurities: you can directly skip the crushing and drying stages and directly put the sawdust into the wood pelletizing machine for processing through the conveying equipment; if you want to sell processed wood pellets, then Cooling, screening and baling processes need to be added; if you want to save money and your factory is large, you can consider stacking the processed wood pellets in the open space for natural cooling, and then packaging them directly through conveying equipment , then you only need a wood pellet granulator, a baling scale and some conveying equipment (conveyors, forklifts).
- If your raw material is wood chips with a moisture content of more than 30% and requires a complete process, then you need to dry the wood chips, then crush the wood chips, and then enter the granulation, cooling, screening, packaging and other stages. Then the equipment you need includes wood pellet hammer mill, pellet machine, cooling machine, screening machine, bagging machine, etc.
- If your raw material is a very thick tree trunk and the moisture content of the tree trunk is very high, then this requires a lot of “pre-treatment equipment”. The required equipment includes wood splitters, slicers, wood flour machines, dryers, and trommel screens. After pre-treatment, it can then enter the granulation, cooling, screening and packaging sections.
- If your raw materials include wood chips, reeds, hay, etc., depending on the shape and moisture content of your raw materials, you will also need to add equipment such as haymakers and trommel screens.
- …
One hundred customers represent one hundred needs, and what RICHI Machinery has always done is to transform these needs into process plans and final equipment configuration plans to realize what customers want.
No matter how many kinds of raw materials you use, no matter how your raw materials need to be processed, RICHI can provide you with the most suitable solution and matching high-performance equipment.

Brief Description Of Process Flow Design
- The sawdust, scraps and straw purchased by the project are transported by truck to the raw material workshop in the factory for temporary storage. The raw material workshop adopts a fully enclosed color steel structure.
- Manual selection and removal of impurities: The purchased sawdust, scraps and straw may contain scrap iron, earth and rocks and other debris, which must be manually sorted and removed by workers.
- Slicing: Use a slicer to slice the scraps and straw. The dimensions after slicing are about 5cm × 5cm and 2cm thick.
- Drying: The raw materials sawdust, scraps and straw have a high moisture content, generally 30-40%. To ensure product quality, the sawdust needs to be further dried. The impurity-free materials are transported to the dryer via a belt, and the dryer uses electric heating for drying.
- Crushing: The dried raw materials are transported to the crushing section through the belt, and crushed into a powder of about 2mm by the crusher.
- Granulation: It is sent to the granulation section through a screw conveyor. The working principle of the wood pellet press is that the raw materials are added from inside the ring die, and are rolled out of the ring die by the pressure roller to form granules.
- Cooling: After the pellets are made, cool to normal temperature.
- Packaging: After the qualified pellets are manually bagged and packaged, they are sealed by a sealing machine and then entered into the warehouse for storage and sales.
From the above three wood pellet plant construction projects, we can see that although they have the same annual output, their hourly output is different. Moreover, the raw materials they use are different, the ratio of raw materials is also different, and their processes are also different. In the end, we designed different solutions for customers based on their needs, with different equipment configurations and different prices for the entire set of wood pelleting system.
In addition, you can also see that the price of a production line with larger output is not necessarily higher, because this is determined by the equipment configured. A simple configuration of a large-volume production line is sometimes cheaper than a complex configuration of a small-volume production line.

How does a wood pellet making machine plant save costs?
How does a wood pellet plant save costs? The following are some suggestions given by RICHI.
Choose the lowest cost raw materials
The lowest-cost raw materials, literally speaking, means that the cost of purchasing raw materials is as low as possible. Everyone should know this. But from the above content, we can know that if possible, choose raw materials that are easy to handle as much as possible.
For example, tree trunks with large moisture content and thick shapes require more pre-treatment equipment. If you have sufficient funds, or you only have this kind of raw material to choose from, then you must carefully select a wood pellet making machine manufacturer to ensure the high quality of the equipment.
Material input
The smooth operation of a wood pellet machine plant depends on the consistency of the material. Energy consumption is a key indicator of production line efficiency at a pellet plant. Every time a wood pellet line is started, energy consumption soars.
In order to reduce energy consumption, it is crucial for pellet plants to minimize the frequency of cold starts. It is also necessary to maintain a stable input of materials. The consistency of raw materials not only helps maintain the quality of the pellets, but also improves the overall efficiency of the process.
Unscheduled stopping and starting of production line equipment has a negative impact on the overall efficiency of the factory and the life of the machine. Each start-up cycle affects the uniformity and integrity of the pellets. Additionally, repeated starts place additional stress on equipment, leading to wear, increased maintenance requirements and reduced productivity.
Therefore, wood pellet machine plants need to have enough and stable raw materials to keep the line running for a period of time, ideally for a full eight-hour shift.
Equipment amortization and energy supply
Another important challenge for wood pellet processing plants is the cost of basic equipment, such as the wood pellet making machine price. Although the price of some equipment, such as granulators, pulverizers, and crushers, is directly proportional to production capacity, the cost of their wearing parts also needs to be taken into consideration.
For example, the cost of wearing parts of a pellet machine with an output of 5 tons per hour can be equivalent to or lower than the cost of wearing parts of a pellet machine with an output of 2 tons per hour, which is more conducive to reducing costs for pellet plants.
The main purpose of any pellet plant is to produce energy, however the plant itself also requires energy to operate. Specifically, each stage of the production line consumes a lot of energy, and how to reduce energy consumption is a challenging issue for pellet plants.
This problem usually has a different approach to each case. It is generally recommended that pellet factories purchase more energy-saving wood pellet machines and other production equipment. The distance between large energy-consuming equipment and transformers can be shortened as much as possible.
Energy usage can also be reduced in the production process. If conditions permit, they can cooperate with neighboring companies for cheap energy.
Regardless of the size of the wood pellet plant and the cost investment, as long as it is run properly, it is bound to be a profitable investment. Of course, raw materials and energy are crucial aspects of the operation of a pellet plant, and they need to be handled by the pellet plant based on its own environmental conditions.
So if you are planning to set up a wood pellet manufacturing business, please contact RICHI Machinery Co., LTD. for a detailed business plan, and complete wood pellet making machine price.
