Ceccato Olindo Single-phase Wood Pellet Machine, 3 Hp, for Domestic Production of Pellet for Heating

Thanks to this wood pellet machine, you can produce pellet at home whenever you need!

Furthermore, this machine will enable you to recycle the wood chips produced by your garden shredder in an extremely profitable way: You’ll be the able to to easily produce a high-quality energy-efficient fuel.

Its demand is steadily growing from the carpentry world, the pellet mill was in fact designed as a consequence of wood chippers and necessity to re-use green branches, which contain all the main properties of wood intact.

The carpentry world, on the other hand, uses treated wood, and therefore, those who purchase sawdust do not know its origin, and it could be deprived of its property.

This is why the demand of this type of machinery is constantly growing in the world of woodworking.

The Ceccato Olindo single-phase electric wood pellet machine is powered by 230 V current and develops an output of 3 Hp.

This machine is entirely Made in Italy, ensuring the highest quality standards.

WARNING: the pellet machine must be fed with small-sized wood chips produced by a garden shredder. We therefore recommend a wood chipper with an interchangeable sieve in the discharge chute that allows sufficiently small wood chips, as well as sufficiently similar and regular sizes (the Ceccato Tritone and Tritone Maxi models, or the AgriEuro 7 Hp and 15 Hp garden shredders have been tested and are therefore fully compatible with this need).

1. First wood shredding: the first thing to do is to shred the wood coarsely with the garden shredder without using any sieve.
2. Second wood shredding: Re-enter the wood chips into the garden shredder. Use the sieve most suitable to your needs according to the garden shredder model in order to reduce the wood chips size for allowing the pellet machine to process it.
3. Since the wood to be shredded must be green, it will be necessary to let it dry before entering it into the wood pellet machine. Note that the optimum moisture content for pellets that do not crumble is between 10 and 14%.
4. Once the wood chips have been dried, simply enter them into the hopper of the pellet mill to finally turn them into pellets.

It is recommended to check that no material (such as plastic or metal) except wood chips is entered into the machine). Results may change depending on the type of wood and the wood chips drying level.

It is necessary for the Operator to be present at all times during the pellet production process in order to continuously feed the machine with wood chips.

Examples of garden shredders suitable for the production of wood chips for pellet mills: these machines can be equipped with a 8 mm or 10 mm chopping sieve, depending on the model, to reduce the wood chips to the right size for the pellet mill.

CAUTION Wood shavings or sawdust are not suitable for processing into pellets, as the length exceeds the size that can be processed by the pellet mill and the thickness is less than the minimum required. The only suitable material are the wood chips produces by a garden shredder as stated above.

The wood pellet machine, i.e. the machine that extrudes the pellets, features a flat rotating die with a 119 mm diameter. A pair of rollers featuring 78 mm diameter and equipped with 2 bearings each ensures pressing the wood chips. The press rollers are powered by a 3 Hp single-phase electric motor.

The wood chips must be entered from the upper feeding hopper.

The pellet produced is discharged through the discharge chute.

The motor absorption is 2.2 kW.

The pellet mills hourly output varies between 30 and 40 Kg and produces a pellet with a diameter of 6 mm and a length of between 25 and 35 mm.

Overall dimensions:

Length: 850 mm
Width: 700 mm
Height: 1120 mm

The machine is provided with 2 large tyres and 2 small swivelling wheels with sturdy rubber cover for transport and braking system.

The handle on the frame allows you to easily move the machine.

The user-frienly controls are placed on a small control panel.
