Industrial Bio-press
It is a plunger-piston mechanism to separate the liquid from moist fibrous material. The solid part is squeezed using compression and cut into small pieces known as “Pellets” or “Briquets”, while the liquid part is collected and accumulated in a reservoir.

Bio-press motion
The Bio-press is a plunger-piston mechanism to separate the liquid from moist fibrous material. The solid part is squeezed using compression and cut into small pieces known as “Pellets” or “Briquets”, while the liquid part is collected and accumulated in a reservoir. Cutting and pelletizing die with variable output that allows working with different solid/liquid ratios in the input material and with different fiber characteristics.
