Pellet press - Max. 300 kg/h

Skånekraft's electric pellet press SK-120E is a potent pellet press designed for the production of biopellets, feed and energy pellets. The pellet press uses its own generated frictional heat to effectively bind the biomass that is fed into the hopper, the mass is then pressed out of the rollers and down through the holes in the matrix and then cut to the appropriate length. This pellet press belongs to the group of presses with rotating die and fixed rollers, particularly suitable for the production of biopellets, feed, straw pellets and the like. Although this press works quite acceptably for the production of wood pellets, we recommend our wood pellet press if your main purpose of purchasing the machine is to produce large quantities of wood pellets, as it is specifically designed for wood pellet production. The rollers of the pellet press have a certain grinding function, which makes it possible to directly feed the machine with softer materials such as autumn leaves, grain kernels, whole corn and grass, etc. However, this only applies to soft materials, wood material should always be finely shredded. Thus, chips, twigs and rice cannot be pelletised in their original form without pre-treatment with a hammer mill.

Profitable calculation, despite high electricity prices

With shortages and fluctuating prices of up to SEK 8 per kilo for fuel pellets, and sometimes even higher for feed pellets, it is profitable to run the pellet press even when electricity prices are high. For example, if electricity costs SEK 10 per kWh, the operating cost is less than SEK 30 per hour, while the press can produce up to 100 kilos of pellets per hour. An average price per kilo of 30 öre. If the electricity price is down to normal levels, the cost per kilo is of course much lower.

A valuable calculation is that one kilo of pellets has (depending on the base material of the pellets) an energy content of about 4.8 kW, so this pellet press can produce up to 100 kg of pellets per hour in continuous operation, or about 480 kWh of thermal energy per hour.
