KAHL
Wood Pelleting Plants
Amandus Kahl offer
pelleting presses with
a drive power from
3 kW to 500 kW. In
total, 11 different sizes
are available.
The production
capacities of most
plants range between
1.5 and 8 t/h.
Smaller plants work
efficiently, too. Larger
plants of up to 40 t/h
are provided for
industrial production
of pellets.
For decades KAHL pelleting plants
have been applied successfully for
compacting organic products of
different particle sizes, moisture
contents, and bulk densities.
We are constantly developing our
machines in order to improve their
capacities and economic efficiency.
KAHL pelleting presses are particularly
appropriate for products which are
difficult to pellet.
Our services:
Consultation, assistance in
obtaining approval, engineering,
commissioning, installation, and
after-sales service.
KAHL supply turn-key plants
for the recycling sector.
Product tests can be carried out
in the KAHL pilot plant.
Wood Pellets:
The Best-Selling and High-Quality Product
Possible applications
of the KAHL pelleting press:
Wood waste:
Wood shavings
Wood chips
Sawdust
Wood and sanding dust
Straw:
Miscanthus
Bagasse
Other biomasses.

Capacity range from a few
hundred kg up to 40 t/h and more
No ATEX problems
Low energy consumption
No noise protection measures.

High pellet quality
= high bulk density
High bulk density
= better combustibility
Due to the great variety of input
products and the different plant sizes
available, we plan and calculate KAHL
plants according to the requirement of
the customer considering the capacity
and the local conditions.
There is, for example, the small
pelleting plant for only 300 kg/h for the
cabinetmaker's workshop pelleting its
own dry wood waste. Such a plant
only works 4 hours a day and still is
economically efficient.

Example of a plant with KAHL pan grinder mill
and fabric belt drier (wood pelleting)
High-Capacity Presses
from KAHL
The product is pressed through a die
by pan grinder rollers, formed into
endless strands, and then cut to the
desired particle length by means of
knives.
Prerequisites for optimum operation are
continuous product feeding into the press
and a homogeneous, sufficiently pre-
crushed product. Due to the large volume
reduction when compacting wood and
wood shavings, particularly sawdust from
about 100 to 650 kg/m
3
, the capacity of
the machine, i.e. the press interior, must
be as large as possible.
Further requirements made by the wood
industry are a robust machine construction
and a high availability of the plant.
Input Products
for Wood Pelleting Plants
Depending on the input
product, which can be
dry wood shavings,
wet saw dust, wood
chips or even whole
tree trunks, different
process steps are
required.
Directly before the
pelleting press, we
need a product with
a granular size of
approx. 4 mm and a
residual moisture con -
tent of approx. 10 %.
This means tree
trunks require the
maximum process
steps: debarking, wet
chipping, drying, dry
grinding, pre-con -
ditioning, pelleting,
cooling, storing or
loading.
If wet sawdust is
available, for example,
drying will be the first
process step.
In case of dry, pre-
crushed product, the
actual pelleting plant
starting with pre-
conditioning will be
sufficient.

Plant for finished
products Grinding plant
Our own production line
guarantees quality
All main machines of the pelleting
plant, i.e. pan grinder mills, hammer
mills, belt driers, pelleting presses and
coolers, are produced in our factory at
Reinbek near Hamburg.
Here we also have our own pilot plant
for carrying out pelleting tests with the
most different products.
KAHL Fabric belt driers
Normally, an industrial pelleting plant is
equipped with one or several driers
and ideally works round the clock, up
to 8,000 operating hours per year.
KAHL Belt driers can be operated with
the most different forms of thermal
energy: Hot water, steam, gas, oil or
wood can be used as energy source.

Competence
for Industrial Wood
Pelleting Plants
Since 1925
AMANDUS KAHL
have built pelleting
plants. We attend to
our customers with
maintenance and
service during the
complete service life
of the plant.
These are generally
several decades during
which our technical
after-sales service is
locally available for our
customers.
Thanks to the state-
of-the-art control and
regulation technique,
we use all possibilities
for remote mainte -
nance of our plants via
modem and internet.

KAHL as Partner
of the Recycling Industry
KAHL Pelleting presses are
extremely suitable for compacting
a large variety of products.
Pelleting of renewable raw materials
for energy recovery has been a topic
for KAHL for more than 30 years,
since we already received correspon d -
ing research assignments after the
energy crisis in the 1970's. Straw and
dried forage pelleting plants have
formed part of our delivery programme
since then, too. So, we can rely on
long-standing experience.
Heavy machinery pays off when it
comes to processing of these
products. The result is a high
operational safety and availability for
continuous operation of the plant.
Possible applications
of the KAHL pelleting press:
Wood waste
Sawdust
Wood and sanding dust
Straw
Agricultural biomass
Waste paper
Municipal and industrial waste
Waste tyres
Sewage sludge
Plastic waste
and many more ...
