As an efficient and environmentally friendly equipment, wood briquette machine has been widely used in the field of biomass energy. By compressing waste wood, sawdust, shavings and other raw materials into high-density biomass fuel blocks, it can not only effectively utilize waste resources, but also provide an important way for the development of renewable energy. However, when using wood briquette maker, the selection and treatment of raw materials are very important, and one of the key points is the size of raw materials.

Importance of raw material size

The working principle of wood briquette machine is to compress raw materials through high temperature and high pressure. If the raw material is too large, it will directly affect the operation efficiency of the equipment and the quality of the final product. Specifically, oversized raw materials may have the following problems:

1. The equipment is blocked

Too large raw materials are easy to get stuck in the feed inlet or compression cavity, resulting in poor operation or even shutdown of the equipment. This will not only increase the maintenance cost, but also reduce the production efficiency.

2. The molding effect is poor

The uneven particle size of raw materials will affect the density and strength of fuel blocks, thus reducing the quality of products. Excessive raw materials are difficult to be uniformly stressed, which leads to cracks or looseness in fuel blocks.

3. Increased energy consumption

It needs higher pressure and energy to treat the oversize raw materials, which invisibly increases the energy consumption of equipment and reduces the production economy.

4. Increased equipment wear and tear

Excessive raw materials may cause additional wear and tear to the rollers, molds and other parts of the equipment, shorten the service life of the equipment and increase the maintenance and replacement costs.

How to control the size of raw materials

In order to ensure the normal operation of wood briquette machine and the quality of finished products, it is necessary to properly treat raw materials to meet the requirements of the equipment. Here are some common methods:

1. Pretreatment equipment

Before the raw materials enter the wood briquette press, wood crusher machine can be used to process them into suitable sizes.

2. Screening process

Screen the processed raw materials, remove the parts that are too large or do not meet the requirements, and ensure that the raw materials entering the machine are uniform.

3. Humidity control

In addition to the size, the humidity of raw materials will also affect the molding effect. Usually, the moisture content of raw materials should be controlled between 8% and 12% to ensure the smooth compression process.

4. Training operators

Ensure that the operators are familiar with the equipment usage specifications and can adjust the production process according to the actual situation to avoid raw material problems caused by improper operation.

Wood briquette machine is an efficient and environmentally friendly equipment, but its performance is closely related to raw material conditions. In order to improve production efficiency and product quality, we must pay attention to the control of raw material size. Reasonable pretreatment and standardized operation can not only prolong the service life of equipment, but also reduce the production cost and contribute to sustainable development. In the future development, with the continuous progress of technology, it is believed that the wood briquette making machine will play a greater role and provide more support for the development of green energy.
