Charcoal extruder is a screw-type forming machine that produces cylindrical briquettes from charcoal powder. Because it is mainly used to produce rod briquettes, it is often called a charcoal rod machine.
Besides charcoal powder, it can also be used to press coal, activated carbon, and semi-coke powder, etc. This machine has a compact design, including the electric motor, reduction box, feeding hopper, screw propelling part, discharging port, machine base, etc.

Charcoal briquette extruder working principle
The charcoal extruder machine adopts the principle of screw extrusion to compress the coal or charcoal powder into shaped briquettes. After the charcoal powder is poured into the feeding hopper, it is propelled forward to the discharging port of the briquette machine by the screw. From the screw chamber to the mold, space is becoming smaller. Under tremendous pressure, charcoal passes through the mold and finally forms certain shapes.
Application of the spiral charcoal powder extruder

Besides charcoal and coal, this extruding machine can also produce briquettes from coke, sludge, olive pomace, cow dung, etc. For making good quality briquettes, the charcoal powder size must be less than 5mm, and the moisture around 20%. To meet the requirements of different customers, the shape of charcoal briquettes can be hexagonal, square, circular, etc. The briquette’s diameter range is 3-50mm. Moreover, customers can choose to produce hollow or solid briquettes.
How the charcoal briquette extruder works
Charcoal briquettes cutter
To extend the application of the charcoal extruder machine, we usually equip it with an automatic cutter. It can cut the briquettes automatically to the same length, and its cutting length can be set. This small device increases production efficiency a lot and improves the appearance of the briquettes. Furthermore, with the help of an automatic cutter, the charcoal screw extrusion machine can be used for producing cubic shisha charcoal.

How to make cube shisha charcoal with the extruder machine
A charcoal briquettes extruder, an automatic briquettes cutter, and a conveyor with a disc cutter can form a complete cube shisha charcoal production unit. By changing the mold and disc cutter, customers can produce hookah charcoal cubes of different sizes.
