The different types of pelletizers include ring die pellet mills, flat die pellet mills, disc pelletizers, pin mixers, pugmill mixers, and rotary drum agglomerators. These machines are used for pelletizing or agglomeration processes, which involve gathering fine solid particles to form larger elements.

1. Ring Die Pellet Mills: These are large-scale pellet mills that are efficient for high production capacities. They use a ring die mechanism to press powdered material into pellets. The ring die configuration allows for continuous production and is suitable for industrial applications requiring high throughput.

2. Flat Die Pellet Mills: These are typically smaller in scale and are used for lower production capacities. They work by pressing material against a flat die, which is suitable for smaller operations or for materials that do not require high compression.

3. Disc Pelletizers: Also known as pelletizing discs, these machines use a wet agglomeration method where particle cohesion is achieved through the addition of a binding liquid and mechanical action. They are effective for forming spherical pellets and are commonly used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

4. Pin Mixers: These are used for agglomeration where the omission of a disc pelletizer is preferred. Pin mixers use impellers with pins to mix and agglomerate fine powders, often producing denser pellets.

5. Pugmill Mixers: Similar to pin mixers, pugmill mixers are used for agglomeration but typically provide a more robust mixing action. They are suitable for materials that require intensive mixing to achieve the desired pellet quality.

6. Rotary Drum Agglomerators: These machines can be used as the sole agglomeration device or in combination with other mixers. They are effective for high-capacity operations and can produce a variety of pellet shapes and sizes depending on the drum's design and operational parameters.

Each type of pelletizer has its specific advantages and is chosen based on the material properties, desired pellet characteristics, and production scale requirements. The choice of pelletizer can significantly affect the efficiency and quality of the pelletizing process.
