🌱 Inside a PelletIndia Fully Automated Biomass Pellet Plant: Key Machinery & Layout

PelletIndia’s 5 TPH Fully Automated Biomass Pellet Plant is a cutting-edge facility designed for high efficiency, minimal human intervention, and consistent pellet quality. This real-world setup integrates smart automation, heavy-duty equipment, and an energy-efficient layout to ensure 24/7 operation with only 2 operators per shift.

🔧 Key Machinery in the 5 TPH Fully Automated Pellet Plant:

  1. Hydraulic Moving Floor – Automatic raw material feeding from bulk pit to conveyor.
  2. Feeding Hopper with Level Sensors – Controls flow rate to the vibrating screen.
  3. Vibrating Screen – Removes impurities from biomass.
  4. Chain Conveyor System – Heavy-duty transport for raw material across the layout.
  5. Flash Dryer (Optional: Rotary Dryer) – Reduces moisture to optimal levels for pelletizing.
  6. Magnetic Separator – Extracts ferrous materials for equipment protection.
  7. Tear Drop Hammer Mill – Pulverizes raw biomass into fine particles.
  8. Air Aspiration System – Reduces dust, increases hammer mill efficiency.
  9. Ribbon Mixer – Ensures uniform blending of raw material for consistent pellets.
  10. Feeder Dosing System – Automatically meters material into the pellet mill.
  11. Ring Die Pellet Mill – Core machine; produces uniform, dense 6–8 mm pellets.
  12. Pellet Cooler (Counter-Flow Type) – Brings pellet temperature close to ambient.
  13. Screening & Dedusting Unit – Removes fines from finished pellets.
  14. Conveyors to Storage – Transports pellets to silos or jumbo bag stations.
  15. Jumbo Bag Filling Station – Automated bagging and weighing system.
  16. Centralized Control Panel (PLC + HMI) – Full plant monitoring, automation, alarms, data logging.
