1.0–1.2 T/H Cotton Stalks Pellet Machine in Pakistan

Client Profile and Equipment Purpose

The client operates in the renewable energy sector, focusing on converting agricultural residues into eco-friendly fuel products. Their primary motivation for purchasing cotton stalks pellet machines included:

• Availability of local raw materials: Cotton stalks are abundant post-harvest, ensuring a continuous feedstock supply.
• Environmental responsibility: Pelletizing residues reduces open-field burning, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.
• Product versatility: The pellets are intended for industrial boilers, small-scale power plants, and household stoves, providing an alternative to traditional fossil fuels.
• Gradual investment strategy: Standalone machines allow experimentation with different raw material blends without the financial risk of purchasing a full production line.

This purchase represented a new investment, not a replacement of existing machinery. The machines were intended for processing cotton stalks and occasional sugarcane bagasse, converting them into fuel pellets of consistent size and energy density.

Raw Material Sourcing and Machine Selection

The client’s primary feedstock consists of cotton stalks sourced directly from farms across Punjab. The stalks are chopped into 5–12 cm segments and dried to a moisture content of 12–14%, ideal for pelletizing. Sometimes, sugarcane bagasse is mixed in to improve pellet combustion characteristics.

After evaluating different options, the client selected the MZLH420 cotton stalks pellet machine:

With two machines, the client achieved a combined processing capacity of 2.0–2.4 T/H, suitable for their initial production needs and local distribution networks. The MZLH420 biomass pellet machine was selected for its robust performance, ability to handle fibrous materials, and higher production capacity, which aligns well with Pakistan’s large cotton residue availability.

Pellet Production Process

The production process for cotton stalk pellets includes:

1. Chopping and drying: Cotton stalks are cut to appropriate sizes and dried to ensure optimal moisture content.
2. Pelletizing: The MZLH420 machines compress the prepared stalks into dense, uniform pellets.
3. Cooling: Hot pellets are cooled to prevent deformation or breakage.
4. Screening and packaging: Pellets are screened for uniform size and packed for industrial and domestic distribution.

The final product is high-density fuel pellets that provide consistent energy output while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. These pellets are well-suited for boilers, biomass stoves, and small-scale power generation units.

Technical Features and Advantages

The cotton stalks pellet machine in Pakistan demonstrates several advantages:

• Versatility: Can process cotton stalks, sugarcane bagasse, rice husks, and wheat straw.
• Durability: Designed for long-term continuous operation with minimal maintenance.
• High-quality pellets: Produces uniform, dense pellets suitable for industrial and domestic use.
• Standalone flexibility: Perfect for piloting small-scale production and experimenting with feedstock blends.
• Energy efficiency: Optimized ring die design ensures high throughput with lower electricity consumption.

The client emphasized that RICHI Machinery’s support—from installation guidance to operator training—was key in achieving smooth startup and consistent pellet quality.

Logistics and Shipping

The MZLH420 machines were shipped via sea freight to the Port of Karachi, Pakistan’s primary industrial port. RICHI Machinery managed the packaging, pre-shipment inspection, and export documentation, ensuring smooth customs clearance and on-time delivery to the client’s facility.

Customer Feedback

"The MZLH420 cotton stalks pellet machines have exceeded our expectations. They handle fibrous stalks without jamming and produce dense pellets with excellent combustion characteristics.
