BIPEL 125 tonne pelletiser/ preformer

Built on 50 years of relentless engineering refinement, the JRD BIPEL 125 Tonne Pelletiser is not a product; it’s a high-force, configurable solution. This machine will produce the highest specification tablets from virtually any material that compacts under pressure, serving as the powerful foundation for your custom requirements.

Configurable Performance Baseline

  • Use horizontal pressing action creates high output.
  • Can produce round tablets from 10mm to 120mm diameter
  • Close tolerance tablet weight to +/-1%
  • Consistent tablet density
  • Jam prevention
  • Double load breakage eliminated

BIPEL Pelletisers are in use in many industries:

  • Plastics – Preform pellets from thermoplastics, phenolics, ureas and melamine.
  • Foundry – Foundry flux tablets. Compaction of metallic powders prior to melting.
  • Leisure – Swimming pool chlorination and chemical treatment blocks.
  • Pyrotechnic –  Rocket propellant tablets. Smoke grenade tablets.
  • Agricultural – Salt lick tablets for cattle.
  • Nuclear – Compaction of radio active powder.
  • Carbon – Compaction of fine carbon powders.
  •  Motor –  Pre-compaction of brake pad materials.
