1.5–2.0 T/H RDF Pellet Machine for Commercial Use in Vietnam

Raw Materials and Production Requirements

The client’s feedstock consists of mixed municipal solid waste and commercial residues common in southern Vietnam. Typical materials include:

• Shredded cardboard, paper, and packaging from retail centers
• Light plastics, such as PET bottles, packaging film, and polystyrene
• Small quantities of untreated wood chips and sawdust from local woodworking workshops
• Food-processing residues and textile waste

All materials are pre-shredded to approximately 40–60 mm before entering the RDF pellet machine. This ensures smooth feeding, uniform pellet formation, and stable machine operation. The client requested pellets of 8–10 mm diameter, optimized for combustion in cement kilns and industrial boilers. Uniform size is essential to maintain steady energy output, prevent blockages, and reduce downtime for cleaning and maintenance.

The combination of two machines ensures continuous commercial pellet production, meeting the client’s energy supply goals while allowing flexibility for maintenance or peak production periods. This setup also allows testing of operational parameters, optimizing energy efficiency and pellet quality over time.

Equipment Functions and Applications

The MZLH520 RDF pellet machine is designed to handle heterogeneous municipal and industrial waste efficiently, producing dense, uniform pellets suitable for high-temperature processes. Key functions and applications include:

• Uniform pellet formation: High-quality dies and rollers ensure consistent pellet density and diameter.
• Flexible pellet sizing: Dies can be adjusted for pellets ranging from 4 mm to 12 mm to suit multiple industrial applications.
• Enhanced fuel performance: Uniform pellets improve combustion efficiency in cement kilns, industrial boilers, and high-temperature processes.
• Durability: Heavy-duty construction and precision components allow for long-term, continuous operation.
• Operational versatility: Suitable for diverse feedstocks including paper, plastics, wood chips, textiles, and light industrial residues.

In Vietnam, these RDF pellets are primarily used for industrial fuel in cement manufacturing and boiler fuel in energy-intensive facilities, showcasing the versatility and commercial viability of RICHI RDF machines. Additionally, consistent pellet quality reduces storage losses and simplifies automated feeding into combustion systems.

Shipping and Installation

The RDF pellet machines were shipped from Qingdao Port, China, via sea freight to Haiphong Port, Vietnam, the primary industrial shipping hub for northern and central Vietnam. RICHI Machinery provided full logistical support, including:

• Pre-shipment quality inspection
• Documentation for smooth customs clearance
• On-site guidance for unloading and installation

RICHI’s engineers supervised the installation and commissioning process, including:

• Proper alignment and calibration of the ring die and rollers
• Operator training and machine operation guidance
• Adjustment of die settings to achieve the desired pellet diameter and density
• Integration with pre-existing shredders and dryers

Thanks to this professional support, the client was able to begin full-scale pellet production immediately, achieving stable, high-quality RDF pellets for their commercial operations. The on-site support also ensured that operators understood preventive maintenance schedules, safety protocols, and best practices for consistent production.

Technical Advantages and Features

• Wide feedstock adaptability: Efficiently processes municipal solid waste, industrial residues, wood scraps, plastics, and textiles.
• Medium-to-high capacity: Produces 1.5–2.0 T/H per machine, appropriate for commercial energy applications.
• Energy-efficient operation: Optimized roller and die design reduces electrical consumption while maintaining high pellet density.
• Durable construction: Reinforced frames, precision rollers, and high-quality dies ensure long-term reliability.
• Flexible pellet sizing: Die changes allow for pellets from 4–12 mm, meeting the needs of different industrial applications.
• User-friendly design: Safety interlocks, emergency stops, and easy operation make the machine suitable for commercial facilities with minimal training.

The client also appreciated RICHI Machinery’s after-sales support and technical consultation, which provided confidence in the long-term operation of the RDF pellet machines. This ongoing support includes troubleshooting, spare parts provision, and performance optimization guidance.

Customer Feedback

After operating the machines for two months, the client shared their feedback:

“The RDF pellet machines from RICHI have completely transformed our commercial operations. The machines handle mixed municipal and industrial waste efficiently, producing uniform pellets that meet the strict requirements of our cement kiln and boiler systems. The professional installation and training by RICHI’s engineers made startup easy and stress-free. We now operate continuously without downtime, and the pellet quality is consistently excellent.”

The client emphasized that having two machines allows flexibility in scheduling maintenance while maintaining uninterrupted production. They were particularly impressed with the consistent pellet density, which improved fuel combustion efficiency, reduced wear on their industrial equipment, and minimized emissions during operation.
