What Size Are Pellet Mill Die Sizes? (7 Key Factors to Consider)

When it comes to pellet mill die sizes, there are several factors to consider. These factors can vary depending on the specific requirements and materials being used. Let's break down the key elements you need to know.

What Size Are Pellet Mill Die Sizes? (7 Key Factors to Consider)

What Size Are Pellet Mill Die Sizes? (7 Key Factors to Consider)

1. Hole Diameter (D1)

The hole diameter of the die typically ranges from 2.5mm to 10mm. The most popular sizes are 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm. This measurement is crucial as it determines the actual diameter of the pellet.

2. Effective Length (E)

The effective length of the die is the thickness that actually performs work on the feed. A greater effective length results in a more compact pellet.

3. Total Thickness (T)

The total thickness of the die is the overall thickness. This is important to provide the necessary die material to avoid breakage.

4. Working Width (W)

The working width is the distance between the two inside edges of the die grooves. This area is known as the die working area.

5. L/D Ratio

The L/D ratio is the effective length (L) divided by the hole diameter (D). High L/D ratios provide high pellet die resistance, while low L/D ratios provide low resistance.

6. Counter Sink Diameter

The counter sink diameter is the diameter of the inlet where the feed enters the compression area of the pellet dies. Different configurations can be used to achieve extra compression if needed.

7. Inlet (Well) Depth

The inlet depth is the depth of the countersink, which affects the compression of the feed.
