MKFD300R – 300 mm Roller Rotation Biomass Pellet Mill

High-compression pelletizing for hardwoods and low-cohesion biomass

The MKFD300R Roller Rotation pellet mill from Meelko is designed specifically for hardwoods, low-lignin biomass, dry materials and agricultural residues with poor natural binding, where standard die-rotation (C-type) machines struggle with feed slip or insufficient pressure.

In the R-type system, the rollers rotate over a fixed die, delivering:

  • Extremely high compression
  • Superior material traction
  • Deep mechanical penetration
  • Increased pellet density
  • More stable operation with difficult feedstocks

Although it produces at a lower speed than C-type machines, the R-type succeeds with materials that conventional systems cannot pelletize properly.


Why choose a Roller Rotation (R-Type) pellet mill?

Maximum compaction force

The MKFD300R generates the pressure required to pelletize:

  • Hardwoods
  • Very dry sawdust
  • Long-fiber biomass
  • Low-lignin crop residues
  • Materials with minimal natural adhesion

Superior pellet quality

R-type pellets are:

  • Denser
  • Stronger
  • More uniform
  • Less dusty and brittle

Reliable feeding and traction

The roller-rotation system eliminates slippage, making it ideal for:

  • Over-dried sawdust
  • Softwood fines
  • Irregular biomass blends
  • Unstable or fibrous materials

Production capacity

Because R-type mills run at a slower working speed, output is typically 40–50% of a C-type pellet mill of the same diameter.

For the MKFD300R, the typical performance is:

  • Mixed biomass: 198–309 lb/h
  • Hardwoods: 154–243 lb/h
  • Low-cohesion dry materials: 132–198 lb/h

(Conversion: 1 kg = 2.20462 lb)


Recommended materials

Wood biomass

  • Dry pine
  • Eucalyptus
  • Poplar
  • Coarse or fine sawdust
  • Long wood shavings

Agricultural residues

  • Peanut shells
  • Sunflower hulls
  • Sugarcane residues
  • Fully dried bagasse
  • Crop waste and trimming residues

Difficult biomass

  • Fibrous mixtures
  • Over-dried materials
  • Irregular particle blends
  • Low-binder biomass

Technical advantages of the MKFD300R

  • Roller rotation system, maximum grip and torque
  • 300 mm heavy-duty die, SAE heat-treated steel
  • High-compression chamber, ideal for abrasive biomass
  • Reinforced cast-iron frame, reduces vibration and improves durability
  • Industrial baked anticorrosive coating, resistant to wood dust and humidity
  • Easy maintenance, with fast access to rollers and die

The natural trade-off of the R system

The R-type pellet mill works slower, resulting in lower hourly production.

BUT it pelletizes materials that a C-type cannot handle.

In simple terms:

  • C-Type = more speed
  • R-Type = more pressure

For hardwoods and demanding biomass, the R-type is the only professional solution.


Material preparation guidelines

To achieve the highest pellet quality:

  • Moisture: 8–12%
  • Particle size: 3–5 mm
  • Dry all biomass fully before pelletizing
  • Remove stones, metal or debris
  • Ensure homogeneous mixing for blended biomass

The professional pellet mill for difficult woods and low-binding biomass

The MKFD300R is designed for producers who must pelletize:

  • Hardwoods
  • Very dry biomass
  • Tough agricultural residues
  • Low-adhesion materials

When a C-type machine fails, the R-type performs.

Applications:

This product is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications, including:

• Material processing
• Industrial production
• Manufacturing operations
• Automation systems
• Construction projects
