The different types of pellet mill dies are as follows:
1. Standard Hole Pattern: This type of die has a nominal hole count that is suitable for general line feed applications where many different formulas are pelleted on the same machine through the same die. It is commonly used for producing pellets for animal feed.
2. Heavy-Duty Hole Pattern: This type of die is designed for heavy-duty applications where the pellet mill is expected to handle high volumes and high-density materials. It has a higher hole count and is more durable than the standard hole pattern die.
3. Close-Hole Pattern: This type of die has a higher hole count and a closer hole spacing compared to the standard hole pattern. It is used for producing pellets with a higher density and improved pellet quality.
In addition to the different hole patterns, there are also two main types of pellet mills based on the design of their dies:
1. Flat Die Pellet Mill: This type of pellet mill has a flat die with slots. The raw material is poured from the top into the pelletizing chamber, where it is compressed between the roller and the die. A cutter on the other side of the die cuts the pellets free. Flat die pellet mills can be further classified into two types: roller-turned type and die-turned type, depending on whether the roller or the die rotates.
2. Ring Die Pellet Machine: This type of pellet mill has a ring-shaped die with radial slots throughout the die. The powder is fed into the inside of the die and evenly distributed by spreaders. Two rollers then compress the powder through the die holes, and two cutters are used to cut the pellets free from the outside of the die. Ring die pellet mills are commonly used for large-scale production of animal feed, wood pellets, and fuel pellets.
Overall, the type of pellet mill die used depends on the specific application, desired pellet quality, and production volume.
