Pillow Charcoal Machine

The pillow charcoal machine is a roller-type briquette press that compresses charcoal and coal powder into ball, oval, ovoid, egg, and pillow-shaped briquettes. It includes a pair of grooved compression rolls, which are the main components for briquette formation. It can produce briquettes of different shapes and sizes by changing the rollers of the pillow briquette press.

The raw materials used to produce charcoal briquettes consist of a mixture of charcoal powder, binder, and water.

The size of charcoal materials should be less than 5mm. If you use lump charcoal or coconut charcoal to make briquettes, you need to use a charcoal crusher to grind charcoal into powder.

After pulverizing charcoal to obtain charcoal powder, it is necessary to mix the charcoal powder with binder and water, and they can be mixed and stirred evenly with a wheel mill mixer. The common binder used for making charcoal briquettes is corn starch or tapioca.

The suggested humidity of charcoal materials is around 25%. Charcoal briquette producers need to adjust the humidity according to the quality of charcoal briquettes in actual production.

The pilow charcoal machine can be widely used in different industries. Besides charcoal and coal powder, it can also be used for compressing and forming gypsum, mineral powder, metal powder, etc. The shape of briquettes can be oval, pillow, or customized.

The only spare part of the charcoal briquette press is the roller, because the carbon powder or coal dust is squeezed into various shapes by the roller, so the surface of the roller is the most easily worn. We ensure that all the rollers used are heat-treated to enhance hardness and wear resistance. We can also customize the rollers according to the shape and size required by the customer.
