Pillow charcoal machine is a roller-type briquette press that can compress charcoal and coal powder into ball, oval, ovoid, egg, and pillow shape briquettes. It includes a pair of compression rolls with grooves, they are the main parts for the briquettes forming. It can produce different shapes and sizes of briquettes by changing the rolls of the pillow briquette press.

The raw materials for making the charcoal briquettes need to meet the following requirements.

The size of charcoal materials must 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 cornstarch and tapioca starch.
