Salvamac Leader 50 Briquette Machine 50kg/h

The Salvamac briquetting press is built around a heavy-duty load-bearing base frame and a mechanical press with die head positioned adjacent to the loading bin — a layout that keeps the footprint compact whilst supporting continuous industrial operation. The hydraulic control unit comprises solenoid valves, gear pumps, pressure plates, and circuit tubing, managed through a PLC control panel supplied at 380V 50Hz three-phase. A batching worm screw ensures homogeneous material feed, eliminating inconsistent compression and reducing die wear. The machine starts and stops immediately with no warm-up cycle required, making it suited to production environments where downtime is a cost. Powder-coated fabricated steelwork and a fully Italian-engineered design underpin the long service expectation. A range of optional ancillaries — including oil temperature and level indicators, an oil cooling system, an extruder cooling unit, and a silo inspection door — allows the press to be configured to site-specific requirements.

Applications: wood waste briquetting, industrial waste compression, sawdust recycling, chip and shaving compaction

Key Features:

— Load-bearing base frame with 900 mm loading bin height — provides structural rigidity under repeated hydraulic cycling without frame distortion
— Mechanical press with die head adjacent to the loading bin — keeps the machine footprint compact whilst maintaining direct compression geometry
— Batching worm screw feed system — delivers homogeneous material flow into the press chamber, reducing void compression and inconsistent briquette density
— Hydraulic unit with solenoid valves, gear pumps, and circuit tubing — a fully integrated hydraulic circuit that is serviceable and standardised in component selection
— PLC control panel, 380V 50Hz three-phase supply — automated cycle management with straightforward integration into standard industrial power infrastructure
— Immediate on/off operation — no start-up time required — the press can be stopped and restarted between production runs without thermal or pressure warm-up delay
— Powder-coated fabricated steel frame — corrosion resistance suited to dusty or damp workshop environments
— 100% designed and manufactured in Italy — single-source engineering accountability with European spare parts availability
— Low wear rate on spare parts — reduced consumable cost and longer intervals between scheduled maintenance
— Optional oil temperature and level electric indicators — continuous hydraulic system monitoring to prevent overheating and cavitation damage
— Optional oil cooling system and extruder cooling unit — extends duty cycle capability in high-throughput or elevated ambient temperature installations
— Optional silo inspection door and load level indicator — enables visual inspection of material volume and supports fully automatic feed control
