Frequently Asked Questions from our Customers

First of all, you would notice pellet quality changes, such as irregular shape, attached strands, or pellets sticking together. It might be that your pellets would feel rough rather than smooth on the cut surface.

Vibrations and excess heat that are generated by dull blades put additional stress on your equipment, so it is not advisable to wait until pellet quality or operating cycle severely degrades. Contact the professional pelletizer blades supplier and explain your issues. 

  • Dull Pelletizer blades
  • Blade Alignment and clearance
  • Operating temperature
  • Material moisture
  • Insufficient water flow
  • Inconsistent melt viscosity

When experiencing poor pellet quality, it’s best to start with the easiest checks

1 blade sharpness, clearance
