Process Flow of Husk Pellet Production Line
Leveraging years of industry R&D experience and user feedback, we have scientifically divided the husk pellet production line into specialised modules. By optimising the equipment and adhering to stricter production standards, we can ensure more stable and efficient husk pellet production. This approach meets your dual requirements for output and quality.

01
Husk Screening Stage
Many husks that have been dehusked by machine contain impurities, such as plastic and iron filings. These impurities can compromise pellet quality and accelerate equipment wear. If your raw materials are similar, this screening stage can help remove the dust and other impurities.



02
Husk Crushing Stage
This stage processes coarse husks into finer material, making it highly suitable for handling mixed materials. While husks themselves may be small enough to be made into pellets, mixed straw materials often contain long fibres that are not suitable for direct pelletisation. Crushing ensures optimal pellet density and formation rates.



03
Husk Drying Stage
The moisture content of raw materials directly impacts the effectiveness of pelletisation. Therefore, we have designed a drying stage. Using an efficient drum dryer, you can reduce the moisture content of the raw materials to an ideal range of 15–18%. This results in a more compact structure of the finished pellets, further improving the formation rate.



04
Husk Pelletising Stage
Our husk pellet machine uses a high-precision ring die design with optimised parameters to achieve a high compression ratio and ensure efficient pelletisation. Under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, the binding properties of the raw material are enhanced and output is increased due to the rapid activation of lignin.



05
Pellet Cooling Stage
Pellets processed through high-temperature steam compression remain hot, which poses a safety risk if they are packaged and transported directly. Their moist, soft texture also makes them susceptible to deterioration if stored improperly. Rapid cooling in this section preserves the structural integrity of the pellets, facilitates transportation and extends storage life.



06
Pellet Screening Stage
In order to ensure the uniform appearance and consistent quality of husk pellets, a screening process is incorporated. High-intensity vibrating screens separate the pellets into standard sizes to ensure high-quality output. Smaller particles and powder are screened out for re-pelletisation, thereby reducing material costs.



07
Product Packaging Stage
As the final stage of the production line, we use highly automated packaging equipment, from automatic weighing to rapid bagging. This significantly reduces labour costs and pellet loss, while ensuring consistent packaging that meets storage and sales standards.


The above outlines the main stages of the RICHI husk pellet production line. We also provide auxiliary equipment to further streamline the production process. If you are interested in our production line or would like to find out more about our equipment, please feel free to get in touch at any time.
Husk Pellets Produced By RICHI Equipment
Below are some photos of the high-quality husk pellets we produce. They are produced using our husk pellet production line equipment. Whether you need them for enhanced combustion efficiency or as animal feed and bedding, we can provide you with the perfect husk pellets. By choosing our husk pellet production line, you can produce such high-quality husk pellets.

Rice husk pellets
Rice husks generally have low density and cannot burn efficiently. Pellets processed through the RICHI husk pellet production line measure 8-10 millimetres in diameter and are densely compacted, making them easier to ignite. Additionally, the ash content after combustion is reduced to 6-7%, further mitigating environmental pollution.

Sunflower husk pellets
Sunflower husks are prevalent agricultural byproducts with multiple applications. However, their lightweight nature presents a challenge in effective utilisation. The pellets produced by our equipment are plump and glossy, with a calorific value of 16-17 GJ/MT. They serve as a highly competitive alternative to wood pellets.

peanut husk pellets
Some husk pellet raw materials, such as peanut shells, contain relatively long fibres and a low moisture content, which can result in poor pelletisation. Our husk production line includes high-performance crushing equipment and pelletizers. The peanut shell pellets have a smooth surface and dense texture, as well as excellent fire resistance.

Smooth husk pellets
Our production lines feature scientifically designed, robust equipment, enabling you to easily produce any type of pellets. These husk pellets have a uniform texture and stable structure, which maximises the retention of raw material nutrients. They are an excellent choice for combustion, animal feed, and bedding applications.
Suitable Raw Materials of Husk Pellet Production Line
The primary raw materials employed in the production of husk pellets are agricultural waste products, including crop husks and other straw-based materials. You might also consider mixed formulations of raw materials. Our advanced equipment can produce husk pellets with various formulations, ensuring consistently superior quality output across different raw materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Drawing on our extensive experience in customer service, we understand the challenges and questions that customers face about husk pellet production line. We have compiled a Q&A to address these issues, covering topics such as raw material suitability, equipment maintenance and after-sales service. Should you have similar concerns, the answers you need can be found below.
What conditions must raw materials meet for producing husk pellets?
+
There are three criteria that must be satisfied: appropriate moisture content, cleanliness and a small particle size. Our husk pellet production line can perfectly address these issues.
Firstly, the moisture content should be around 15% for husk feedstock. Excessive moisture causes a loose pellet structure and poor formation, while insufficient moisture reduces binding strength and similarly impacts yield.
Secondly, the raw materials must be free of impurities such as metal or stones to ensure clean and high-quality pellets while preventing wear and tear to machinery.
Finally, if the fibres in the raw material are excessively long or large, pre-processing through crushing and screening is usually required. Crushing ensures pellet uniformity and a smooth production flow.
What are the key parameters affecting pellet formation and quality?
+
The conditioning process and the ring die compression ratio are both critical parameters that influence final pellet quality.
The conditioning process refers to the preliminary treatment of the material to achieve the best rates of pellet formation.
Furthermore, it is essential to control the ring die compression ratio correctly, based on the raw material characteristics and pellet specifications. Incorrect equipment parameters have the potential to impact pellet structure and output.
What are the quality standards for husk pellets?
+
Particle Durability Index (PDI): This assesses the structural integrity of the pellets, their resistance to breakage and their density.
Moisture content: Husk pellets typically require a moisture content below 12% to facilitate optimal storage and transportation.
For specific durability and moisture content benchmarks, refer to the target market’s industry standards or internationally recognised specifications.
Regardless of the standard, our husk pellet production line delivers flawless results.
What should be noted for daily maintenance of husk pellets production equipment?
+
The husk pellet production line incorporates numerous pieces of equipment. Please ensure you follow the maintenance instructions in the equipment manual strictly. There are several key maintenance points to consider.
Firstly, please regularly add lubricating grease based on operating hours. In addition, it is important to periodically inspect components such as moulds and press rollers for wear. Finally, it is essential to promptly clear residual materials from the equipment. Proper maintenance ensures long-term stable operation, as well as reducing equipment wear and minimising the risk of production downtime.
