Mechanical presses

Mechanical presses are usually used for large scale plants from approx. 200 kg/h to 3.500 kg/h for single line plants, but 2 or more presses can be grouped together to create high capacity briquetting plants per hour.

The mechanical press is made in the form of an eccentric press. A constantly rotating eccentric shaft connected to a plunger pushes the raw material through the conical head. In mechanical presses, the required back pressure can only be adjusted by fitting a die with a different taper or different length.

Since the mechanical press is driven by an electric motor rather than a hydraulic one, the energy loss in the device is very moderate, and thus the power output in relation to the power input is optimized.

The service life of a mechanical press is much longer than that of a hydraulic one. Briquettes made on a mechanical press can be used both for the production of consumer and industrial briquettes. Density can be adjusted to be higher for consumer briquettes and lower for industrial briquettes.

FAQ

How long does it take for the purchase of a briquetting press to pay for itself?

Amortisation periods can be less than three years, in certain cases even less than 1 year. However, the amortisation period depends on the material to be made into briquettes and the quantity. Thanks to the reduction in volume, costs for transport, storage and handling are cut. The amortisation period can be further reduced through the sale of the briquettes and the recovery of coolants.

Do we need to crush/shred the chips before briquetting?

In the case of long, woolly chips, it may be necessary to crush the starting material beforehand. In this case, we can offer complete solutions together with the relevant suppliers. With our free pressing test, we can establish whether your starting material can be briquetted or whether it needs to be crushed beforehand.

What is the best way to pack briquettes?

Several solutions are suitable for packaging: the standard use of plastic bags with a thermal knife seal. But with this type of packaging, the briquettes crumble during transportation. To reduce flaking, a heat-resistant film is used. In it, the briquette, due to the tight arrangement to each other, does not crumble.We offer solutions from Strojplast.

Which is better: briquettes or pellets?

It all depends on where you plan to use biofuels. If for stoves, fireplaces, baths and barbecues - definitely briquettes of the RUF type. If for industrial furnaces, then pellets, but modern technologies also allow the use of briquettes for these purposes, because. they have a lower cost, and accordingly the price.

How do I find the right briquetting machine?

We have many years of experience in briquetting which means that our experts are well-qualified to provide you with professional advice in choosing the right briquette press. We work with you to identify your individual requirements on the basis of the material in question and the production conditions. This then allows us to offer you custom-made briquetting machines or even complete briquetting solutions.

Is there an “all-rounder” press for all possible materials?

We always try to find the best possible briquetting solution. Our range has therefore been specifically developed for certain materials, production conditions or marketing purposes of the briquettes. Our experts will be happy to advise you with respect to processing several different materials with one briquetting machine.

Why carry out test briquetting?

By testing, our specialists determine the ability of chips to briquetting, which press model is best suited for a particular material, whether there is a need for options. In the process of testing, parameters such as the density of the briquette, the strength of the briquette (friability test), the amount of coolant squeezed out are determined.
