Make Your Own Wood Pellets with Small Pellet Mills
Some people may think that wood pellets are made of wood, in fact, they can be made of other materials, too. Sawdust, tree bark, wood chip, leaves can all be compressed into pellets. As long as you screen the hard objects and dust out, then adjust the materials into proper size, GEMCO small pellet mill can make wood pellets for you perfectly. In this article, I want to talk about how to choose pellet making machines according to your financial capacity and materials. There are some clients worried about the price of pellet machines. Here I will ease you from this kind of anxiety by explaining why making your own pellets can save money instead of waste your bucks on some unsuitable machines.
Small pellet mills for home use
There are two types of small pellet mill I want to recommend, the sawdust die-turned pellet mill and the sawdust roller-turned pellet mill. Both of them are small, flexible and efficient, while the die-turned one is super in price/performance ratio. But, the die-turned one is more suitable to process soft biomass materials like grain husks, grass, sawdust etc. To tell the truth, the die-turned small pellet mill can make feed pellets and biomass pellets, but it can't be used to process hard wood. Because of that the roller is driven by the die below, there is no such strong pressure generated to press hardwood. If you have the materials exactly suitable for the die-turned pellet machine to process, I recommend that you select a few more dies with different compression ratio for better pelletizing effect.
For clients who want to process softwood and hardwood, there comes the roller-turned pellet mill. It is a little more expensive than the die-turned one, but it is highly suitable to process wood pellets. I've been talked about how the wood pellet mill works for so many times but I gonna say it again. The roller rolls above the die, and press the raw materials between them into the pelletizing holes, then the materials are shaped in the holes. Cause the roller-turned pellet mill has exchangeable rollers, and the heavy roller can generate more pressure, so the clients can choose rollers in different weight for different materials. However, if it still costs more than your budget, I suggest that you begin with the soft sawdust and die-turned pellet mill.
We all know that purchase a pellet mill cost some money, but with a small pellet mill, you can make your own pellets. No matter you sell the wood pellets or burn them for home heating, it is a efficient use of your biomass waste resource.
