The flat die pellet press is an essential and versatile piece of equipment widely used in the biomass, animal feed, and recycling industries. Characterized by its simple design and ease of use, this type of pellet mill employs a flat die with multiple pellet holes, over which a pair of rollers press the raw material to create pellets of uniform size and shape. As an energy-efficient and cost-effective solution for small to medium-scale pellet production, the flat die pellet press is favored for its ability to convert a variety of organic materials, such as wood chips, sawdust, agricultural residues, and feed compounds, into densified pellets suitable for heating, animal nutrition, or as a sustainable alternative to traditional fuels. The compact size and relatively low noise operation make it an ideal choice for on-site pellet production in farms, small enterprises, and community projects.

What The Applications of Hydraulic Extrusion Granulator ?

Flat die pellet mill is primarily designed for granulating coarse fibers such as wood chips, rice husks, straws, animal manure, and kitchen waste, etc. Meanwhile, it is also suitable for low-temperature granulation of materials with low adhesion and difficult molding, including bio-bacterial fertilizers, organic fertilizers, compound fertilizers, and more.

Small-scale Livestock Farming

Particularly, this granulator suits for small-scale poultry and pig farms for waste management purposes. Also, it can be of use to pelletize soybean cake, hay, and other feed ingredients, offering a multifunctional and cost-effective solution for livestock feed production. Thus, these materials are efficiently granulated into cylindrical pellets, providing a sustainable solution for enriching soil fertility.

Animal Feed Production

Moreover, the versatility of flat die granulation machine extends to the production of animal feed pellets. Furthermore, you can process various ingredients like soybean meal, corn stalks, and alfalfa into uniform cylindrical pellets suitable for livestock consumption. Besides, this process ensures nutrient-rich feed for poultry and livestock farmers.

Biomass Pellet Production

In addition, flat die granulator plays a crucial role in biomass pellet production by converting wood chips, rice husks, cotton stalks, cottonseed husks, weeds, various crop straws, and agricultural residues into cylindrical pellets. Then, these pellets serve as a sustainable energy source for heating and power generation. Wood shavings and corn stalks are common materials in the production of biomass pellets using flat die pellet mills.

Diverse Powder Materials

Additionally, the versatility of flat die pellet mills extends to various powder materials such as tobacco dust, tea powder, coal dust, calcium silicate fertilizer, charcoal, ore powder, and sodium sulfate, enabling efficient pelletization.

All in all, by efficiently shaping materials into cylindrical pellets, flat die pellet mills contribute significantly to the production of organic fertilizers, animal feed, and biomass pellets, catering to the diverse needs of agricultural and industrial sectors.

How Much to Buy A Flat Die Granulator ?

When considering the pricing of flat die pellet mills, it is essential to look at the production capacity and power specifications of the machines available in the market.

Small Scale Granule Machine

Firstly, a small flat die pellet mill has a production capacity of 1-1.5t/h and a power rating of 30kW. In addition, it prices typically falls within a certain range from $3,000-$3,700, reflecting the efficiency and output capacity of the machine. Besides, this model is ideal for producing cylindrical pellets ranging from 2mm to 10mm in diameter.

Medium Scale Granule Machine

Secondly, a flat die pellet mill with a production capacity of 1.5-2t/h and a power rating of 37kW offers increased efficiency and output potential. So, the pricing of this model slightly varies to accommodate the higher production capacity and power requirements, ensuring optimal performance in pellet production. And it costs $4,000-$4,500 USD.

Large Scale Granule Machine

Thirdly, a flat die pellet mill with a production capacity of 2-2.5t/h and a power rating of 45kW has a higher price, at $5,000-$5,600. Moreover, it depends on its enhanced capabilities in producing larger quantities of cylindrical pellets. Therefore, this model excels in meeting the demands of high-volume pellet production while maintaining the desired pellet sizes.

By considering the production capacity, power specifications, and output capabilities of the different models available, buyers can make informed decisions regarding the pricing of flat die pellet mills that best suit their production needs and budget constraints.

Why Is The Flat Die Granulator Popular In The Market?

Reasonable Structure of Flat Die Pellet Mill

It applies pressing wheels to make machine run smoothly. To a certain extent, this can reduce unnecessary friction between molds and gears, lower energy consumption and production costs. The extrusion rollers and molds are made of alloy to extend the service life of the machine.

Beautiful Appearance of Finished Products

The pellets processed by the flat die extrusion granulator have smooth surface, uniform composition and neat shape. The size of granules can be Φ2-Φ10mm, and when ordering the users can choose according to actual production needs.

Poor Materials Moisture Content

The flat die granulator can control moisture content of the raw material in the range of 20% to 40%. Due to the low moisture content, the finished products are easy to store, maintain the original shape in the water for a long time, which greatly improve the utilization rate of the materials.

No Binder Required in Pelletizing

The flat die pelletizer makes full use of the fact that organic particles can be attached to each other under certain acting forces, and there is no binder needed for pelletizing.

Low Investment Cost

Moreover, flat die granulator applies dry granulation, without investment in the purchase of drying equipment, which can greatly reduce the investment cost in equipment and drying energy consumption.

High Finished Granule Rate

Finally, the finished products rate almost above 90%. And the particles processed by the flat die granulator are hard and not easy to break which make transport more conveniently. Then, the size of the finished granules is related to size of holes on molds. Hence, the same equipment can produce different forms of fertilizer pellets for users to gain more revenue.

Firstly, the flat die granulator is based on the mechanical circular motion and powered by an electric motor.
Then, under the action of friction, the extrusion rollers rotate themselves and the temperature is increased between them and materials, which the high temperature causes the material to melt.
What’s more, when working, the flat die granulator uses extrusion rollers and molds to extrude materials that are pressed into strips through the small holes of molds.
Moreover, if the pressure exceeds the set limit, you can promptly intervene to prevent any potential damage to the equipment.
Finally, while discharging from the outlet, strips are cut to a certain length by cutting knives for finished products.
