Hello Everyone,
I have a new venture producing screw-type sawdust briquettes. I am wondering why my briquette machine can't reach its rated output of 300-400kgs per hour. It has a 22kw motor and everything is working smoothly. However, when I check power consumed per hour, it is consuming 18KWh including the heating coils, meaning the motor is only drawing about 13.5KWh.
Any ideas how I can reach a higher capacity?
The sawdust is dry at about 8% moisture. It is sawdust from pine and eucalyptus trees.

Hi,
What is your expected production capacity from 22 Kw Motor ? What is the production capacity you are getting at present?
May be Heat loss? Can you share photo /Video of your Running machine ? Is your machine can make pellets using sugarcane Bagasse, coconut Husk Powsder ?
