How to Make Your Own Wood Pellets at Home?

 1. Rollers and Dies

The wood pellets will be made by the pellet mill extruder and the materials will be pressed with the die. The die’s holes are rounding as well as the pellets are pushed from the inside out by rollers. The pellets are formed as a continuous cylinder shaped material and cut to length by a knife at the outside of the die. Wood pellet extruder contains quite a few conditioning units installed above where liquids might be put into enhance pellet capacity.

2. Raw Material Moisture Adjustment

Water is at times added inside the type of steam resulting in firmer pellets. The moisture of raw materials is not less than the national standard of 15%. From the conditioner of a wood pellet extruder machine, the wood feed stock falls into the centre of the wood pellet extruders. Within the wood pellets extruder, rollers and feed ploughs push the material via the holes from the die plate. The die plate is stationary and rollers rotate throughout the internal surface of the die, or the die rotates around the rollers. Outer knives cut the pellets to length necessary.
