Charcoal making machine, also known as charcoal production line, consists of several machines. First, the raw materials are pulverized into sawdust with a diameter of less than 5mm using a wood crusher. Then, the sawdust is dried using a rotary type of sawdust dryer to reduce moisture. Next, the material is shaped using a briquette machine. Finally, it is placed in a carbonization furnace for carbonization.

This series of biomass carbonizing machines can process wood branches, sawdust, rice husk, coconut shells, straw, bamboo, plan kernel shells, and other waste biomass materials into charcoal. And the charcoal products can be hookah or shisha charcoal, barbecue charcoal, honeycomb coal, and various types of charcoal briquettes.

The automatic charcoal briquettes production process

Machine-made charcoal is widely used in agriculture, industry, environmental protection, smelting, civil life, and other categories. With people’s increasing demand for charcoal, the automatic charcoal production line which can be used for efficient production is becoming more and more popular.

The automatic charcoal production line as the name implies is in a person’s operation can be put into production, completely effortless, can save a lot of labor and production costs.

General charcoal machine production line comprises a series of basic charcoal making equipment such as crusher, dryer, sawdust briquette machine, and carbonization furnace. Such a production line often needs at least 3-5 people for charcoal production.

Based on the original equipment, the automatic charcoal making line added some special equipment such as screw feeder, rotary screen, distributor, and net belt conveyor, fully realized automatic production of charcoal.

Two types of charcoal production processes

1. Molding before carbonization: raw materials — crushing, screening — drying — rod making — carbonization — packaging. Sawdust, wood chips, cotton stalk, rice husk, and other raw materials after crushing by the crusher will be conveyed by screw feeder into airflow dryer machine or rotary dryer machine(corresponding dryers can be chosen according to the dry humidity of raw materials and production needs ) for drying. After drying, the materials are transported from the screw feeder to the distributor. The distributor can distribute the raw materials evenly to be placed in the lower sawdust briquette machine (in the production line, according to the production demand, more than one sawdust briquette machine can be set). The hollow rod formed by the sawdust briquette machine is exported by the net belt conveyor. Workers collect and sort these hollow rods from the conveyor, and then send them to the carbonization furnace to be carbonized into finished carbon rods.
2. Carbonization before molding: raw material — carbonization — mixing and milling (water and additive) — molding — air drying and warehousing. Walnut shells, chestnut shells, cotton stalk, corn stalk, and other raw materials are first carbonized by the carbonizing furnace (the carbonization furnace shall be selected according to the raw materials to be carbonized). The charcoal after carbonization should be crushed by a charcoal crusher (the corresponding crusher can be selected according to the crushing degree of charcoal). After the charcoal is crushed into powder,  it should be added with water and adhesive and mixed evenly by a grinding blender. After that, it is pressed by the charcoal briquette machine to form the final finished charcoal briquettes like charcoal rods, hookah charcoal briquettes, charcoal ball, honeycomb charcoal, and BBQ charcoal, which can be packaged and stored in the warehouse or sold after being dried by the drying box.

Features of the automatic charcoal making machines

1. The automatic biomass charcoal production line has a high degree of automation, which can reduce the original single machine operation from 5-8 people to 1-2 people, greatly reduce the input of human and material resources, increase output and expand economic benefits.
2. The raw materials of the complete set of charcoal machines are wide and in low price, all kinds of raw materials can be used with the corresponding charcoal machine production line, and the shape of the charcoal produced is regular, with carbon content up to 75-85%, high heating value and long burning time.
3. The operation cost of the whole equipment is low, the raw material crushing rate is high, energy-saving, and environmental protection, the output is big, and the pollution is little.
4. Compared with other product lines, the operation and maintenance of this whole set of charcoal making equipment are very simple, wearing parts with the latest domestic high-strength and wear-resisting materials, small loss and long service life can bring customers considerable economic benefits. According to the actual production requirements of customers, a reasonable allocation of automatic charcoal machine production lines can be customized by our professional charcoal machine technicians.
