The ATFP200T is an unpowered pellet mill with a 200 mm diameter die, the holes in the die can be pretty much whatever size you would like. It is designed to be powered by a 550 rpm PTO from a tractor. It is not designed to be run by a motor or engine. It is rated at 220 to 440 lbs per hour of production depending on the type of material you want to pelletize. Wood is much more difficult to pelletize than grasses or grains and you should probably not use this mill to make wood pellets, it doesn’t have enough torque. To make wood pellets please check out my wood pellet mill page.

This mill will require a tractor with at least 12 to 15 HP available at the PTO. This mill comes complete with the Jack Shaft but you will have to construct your own 3 point hitch and likely as not the PTO U joint will need a different spline coupling due to the difference between US and Asian tractors. This mill weighs 330 Lbs and its dimensions are 28 X 21 X 42 inches. Spare Die is $105 Spare Roller assy is also $105. Figure on changing the die and roller every 1600 hours of normal operation, but rocks, bolts etc. can damage them beyond use, so I recommend you keep a set of spares.

     The ATFP250DE is a Diesel Engine powered  pellet mill with a 250 mm diameter die, the holes in the die can be pretty much whatever size you would like. It is designed to be powered by a variable rpm Diesel Engine rated at 22HP. If I supply the engine it will be a Chang-Chai China Diesel. They are the least expensive I have found and require regular attention. This type of engine is evaporatively cooled. There is no radiator. It just heats up to 212 degrees and starts blowing off steam. You have to keep an eye on the coolant level as it naturally evaporates away. These engines are one lung diesels and they shake rattle and roll. It is not uncommon for them to shake loose a nut or bolt here or there, so when you are filling the water or diesel you need to check the oil level, and the tightness of all exposed nuts and bolts. It burns about a quart and a half of diesel per hour. It is 12V electric start. If you don’t know how to turn a wrench you should probably find an alternative power source. But if you know your way around a toolbox you won’t find a better value in diesel power. As you can see we turned the motor perpendicular to the mill to increase stability.This mill  is rated at 440 to 660 lbs per hour of production depending on the type of material you want to pelletize. Wood is much more difficult to pelletize than grasses or grains.  It weighs 1300Lbs and its dimensions are 61 X21 X 49 inches when packaged for shipping.

The line of mills with a 350mm die is likely the best bang for your buck. The sales figures confirm it. Roughly 2/3 of my sales are for one of the 350mm mills. It is the smallest mill that can be ordered with a “heavy duty” option. It can be considered for a small commercial operation. The ATFP350T is an unpowered pellet mill with a 350mm die. The holes in the die can be pretty much whatever size you would like. It is designed to be powered by a 550 rpm PTO from a tractor. It is not designed to be run by a motor or engine. It is rated at 880 to 1200 lbs per hour of production depending on the type of material you want to pelletize. Wood is much more difficult to pelletize than grasses or grains. It will require a tractor with at least 30-40HP available at the
PTO. This mill comes complete with the Jack Shaft but you will have to construct your own 3 point hitch and likely as not the PTO U joint will need a different spline coupling due to the difference between US and Asian tractors. This mill weighs 992 Lbs and its dimensions are 31 x 29 x 53 inches. Spare Die is $350 Spare Roller assy is $418.

ATFP350THD

The “heavy duty” or quasi-commercial version of this mill comes with a higher grade of  hardened steel used in it’s tapered rollers.The tapered rollers produce less friction as they roll over the die and thus last longer. The HD tapered rollers price is $665.00 and the HD die is $385.00. The hypoid gears which are not so easily seen are from Isuzu. They are considered to be superior to normal grade ring and pinion gears.Just looking at ithis mill you can tell it is built much more stoutly than the standard version.  If you are planning on starting a small commercial feed pelleting operation, I recommend you start with this heavy duty option. It is available in all versions of the 350 series mills. the shown unit is designed to be powered with the PTO of a rather large tractor and comes with the Jack Shaft.

This is the ATRD-250E, it is the smallest Ring Die machine I build at this time. If you want to start a small feed pellet making business, this is my choice for where to start.. This mill is belt driven which means it doesn’t come apart at the seams when a nut or bolt shows up in the mixing bowl. Instead the belt starts squealing and fills the air with acrid smoke, but your mill doesn’t usually sustain serious damage. In a small start-up company the extra cost of the belts wearing out is a small price to pay for this type of security. Small operations or new operations usually don’t have the appropriate equipment to keep the feed-stock totally pure. The little tube on the top is called a conditioner. It allows you to add heat, moisture or binding agents if you need them. This mill is rated at 500 KG (1100 Lbs) per hour for soft wood pellets. But that number should be taken with a grain of salt. In my tests with this mill prove it is unsuited to making wood pellets at all. Engineers, smart though they are, don’t know everything. But this mill does a very good job making feed pellets  Your actual production will depend on the type of material being processed. Grasses and grains are the easiest, wood is harder, and hardwoods are the worst to make into pellets regardless of the mill. The skill of the crew in managing particle consistency, and moisture control are the biggest factor in how much production you will achieve.

This mill uses only 22 KW of 3 phase electric power which makes it very economical to use. The small motor driving the conditioner uses 1.5 KW per hour of electricity. I recommend that you use this mill with a VFD (variable frequency drive) so that you can change the speed of the motor to peak your production. Getting exactly the right speed can make a gigantic difference in the production you achieve with any pellet mill. You are welcome to buy this mill without a motor and supply it yourself. This mill weighs 550 KG (1210 LBS ) with the motor and 430 KG (935 lbs) without the motor. Dimensions are 156 X 140 X 129 CM (62 X 55 X 50 Inches). The Die is 250 mm (9.8 inches) in diameter as the model number indicates.

You should figure on changing the expendable die and roller every 1600 to 2000 hours. Spare dies are $670.00 and spare rollers are $525.00. The drive belts are also expendable but you should have no problem finding them at your local auto parts store. In fact most of the parts that might ever go bad on this machine should be easily sourced at a local parts supply house or industrial hardware store. If you are not a good wrench, you should either plan on learning to become one, or have one on your payroll. This is good industrial grade machinery but like all machinery it requires maintenance.

ATRD300E FEED PELLET MILL

 

This is the ATRD-300E, I consider this to be the best bang for the buck mill I sell. If you want to start a small feed pellet making business, this is a very good choice for where to start. But only after you have put your time in with a small flat plate pellet mill. This mill is belt driven which means it runs smoothly and with less risk of gear breakage due to foreign object damage than its gear driven brethren.

The little tube on the top is called a conditioner which is included with this mill. It allows you to add heat, moisture or binding agents if you need them. This mill is rated at 800 KG (1750 Lbs) per hour for softwood pellets. But that number should be taken with a grain of salt. Your actual production will depend on the type of material being processed. Grasses and grains are the easiest, wood is harder, and hardwoods are the worst to make into pellets.Wood feed stock should not be used with this mill.  The skill of the crew in managing particle consistency, and moisture control are the biggest factor in how much production you will achieve.

This mill uses only 32 KW (43 HP) of 3 phase electric power which makes it very economical to use. The small motor driving the conditioner uses 1.5KW per hour of electricity. There is also a third motor pushing the raw material into the mill. I recommend that you use this mill with a VFD (variable frequency drive) so that you can change the speed of the motors to peak your production. Getting exactly the right speed can make a gigantic difference in the production you achieve with any pellet mill. You are welcome to buy this mill without a motor and supply it yourself. This mill weighs 850KG (1875 LBS ) with the motor and 700 KG (1543 lbs) without the motor. Dimensions are 165*145*143 CM (65 X 57 X 56 Inches). The Die is 300 mm (11.8 inches) in diameter as the model number indicates.

You should figure on changing the expendable die and roller every 1600 to 2000 hours of operation. Spare dies are $1150.00 and spare rollers are $725.00. Most of the parts that might ever go bad on this machine should be easily sourced at a local parts supply house or industrial hardware store. If you are not a good wrench, you should either plan on learning to become one, or have one on your payroll. This is good industrial grade machinery but like all machinery it requires maintenance. Pellet mill technicians aren’t available in every town.
