What are the complete details for setting up a 2-ton-per-hour rice husk pellet plant?

Rice Husk Pellet Plant with a Capacity of 2 Tons Per Hour


1. Machinery List

  • Feeding Hopper: To store and feed rice husk into the production line.
  • Double Desk Vibrating Screen: Removes impurities like stones, metal, or other foreign materials.
  • Ribbon Mixer: Homogenizes rice husk to maintain consistent moisture and material quality.
  • Pellet Mill: Designed for 10mm pellet size; specific for rice husk processing.
  • Control Panel: Ensures automated operation and real-time monitoring of the plant.
  • Redler Conveyor: Transports material between machines with minimal spillage.
  • Pellet Cooler (if needed): Reduces pellet temperature to ambient levels for better storage.
  • Pellet Storage Silo (if needed): Stores the final product before bagging.
  • Bagging Machine (if needed): For packaging pellets into uniform bags for transportation.
