This is a project about a sawdust making machine in Nigeria. In Nigeria, a medium-sized woodworking and biomass processing company based in Lagos purchased two RICHI SFSP66*100 sawdust making machines to enhance their raw material processing capacity. The client operates as a timber and biomass processing facility, supplying sawdust for pellet production, particleboard, and horticultural substrate industries across the region.
The company had previously relied on older hammer mills with limited efficiency and inconsistent particle sizes. The purchase of two single-unit SFSP66*100 hammer mills was aimed at replacing outdated equipment while simultaneously boosting production capacity for finer, more uniform wood powder.
The client opted for single units because they preferred to integrate these machines into their existing processing line, rather than purchasing an entirely new production line. The flexibility of RICHI’s SFSP series allowed them to achieve this seamlessly.
Nigeria’s biomass and woodworking sector has been growing steadily, particularly in pelletized fuel production and particleboard manufacturing, creating a high demand for consistent, finely processed sawdust. RICHI Machinery’s reputation for durable, high-capacity hammer mills and global service network played a significant role in the client’s decision.

The primary material processed by the client was local hardwood and softwood logs, mainly Eucalyptus, Mahogany, and Iroko wood, sourced from managed timber plantations and sawmill offcuts. The raw wood pieces ranged in size up to 5 cm, making them ideal for processing in the SFSP66*100 sawdust making machine.
The client specifically required fine, consistent sawdust for use in sawdust pellet mills and particleboard production, where particle size uniformity directly affects pellet density and board quality.
The client selected two SFSP66*100 water-drop type hammer mills, chosen for their capacity, efficiency, and adjustability. Each machine is capable of processing 3.0–4.0 tons/hour of wood chips into sawdust, providing the company with the throughput necessary for continuous pellet and particleboard production.
| Model | Rotor Diameter | Crushing Chamber Width | Rotor Speed | Line Speed of Hammers | Motor Power | Output Capacity (Wood Chips) | Final Particle Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SFSP66*100 | 660 mm | 1000 mm | 2980 rpm | 103 m/s | 110 kW | 3–4 T/H | 1–5 mm (adjustable via screen change) |
The SFSP66*100’s advanced water-drop crushing chamber ensures efficient secondary crushing, while the patented end-of-shaft air intake system increases output by over 20% compared to traditional hammer mills.
The SFSP66*100 sawdust making machine in Nigeria is a versatile solution for multiple industrial applications:
The adjustable screen and rotor features allow the client to switch between particle sizes quickly, adapting to different market demands without significant downtime.
The two SFSP66*100 units were integrated into the existing processing line:
This workflow of this sawdust making machine in Nigeria ensures high efficiency, minimal downtime, and uniform output, essential for maintaining product quality and operational cost-effectiveness.
The SFSP66*100 hammer mills were shipped from Qingdao Port, China, arriving at Lagos Port, Nigeria, the main international hub for heavy machinery.
RICHI Machinery provided comprehensive services:
This ensured the crusher machines were fully operational immediately after delivery, producing high-quality sawdust with minimal operator intervention.
The universal applicability of the SFSP series made it a perfect fit for wood, grain, and biomass processing, allowing the client to expand into new product lines without additional machines.
The client shared their experience:
"RICHI’s SFSP66*100 machines have transformed our wood processing line. The output is consistent, and the flexibility to adjust particle size is exactly what we needed. We can now produce high-quality sawdust for pellets, particleboards, and horticultural substrates all from the same machines. The RICHI team’s support during installation was outstanding, and the machines are extremely reliable."
