Pelleting device

Abstract

Disclosed is a pelleting device which is designed as a field-guided stalk-crop harvesting machine and, when connected to a tractor with a chopper, includes a diesel engine that drives a current generator and also an annular die press. The chopped stalk material passes into a dry chamber and via a screw conveyor into the annular die press. The annular die of the annular die press is mounted in ring bearings on a base, on which a pair of pivot levers for a pan grinder roller is also hinged. An electric drive motor fed by the current generator drives the screw conveyor by a controller, and servomotors, which engage on the pivot levers, regulate the roller gap. The controller is governed as a function of the injection requirement of the diesel engine and/or the pressure applied by the press.
