Recently, the SL-290 charcoal ball maker machine was successfully exported to South Africa, providing a solution for a local fuel processing company. This article will introduce how our coal briquette press machine helped the customer solve the problem.

Core issues faced by our customer
This client is a medium-sized coal fuel processing and sales company. Their production process generates a large amount of pulverized coal as a byproduct. They have long faced the following challenges:
- Powdered raw materials are difficult to sell directly.
- Severe losses occur during transportation.
- The market prefers standardized coal briquettes.
- Profit margins for powdered raw materials are low.
The client wants to purchase a charcoal ball maker machine to transform powdered raw materials into more competitive products.
How do we solve customer problems?
Based on the customer’s raw material characteristics and target output, we recommended the SL-290 charcoal ball maker. Its function is to compress raw materials such as pulverized coal and charcoal powder into high-density spherical fuel.
The advantages of this coal briquette machine are:
- High forming rate and uniform spherical shape
- High density and less prone to breakage
- Easy to package and transport
- Stable operation and simple maintenance
- High efficiency (500 kg/h)

Project cooperation results
After the charcoal ball maker was put into use, customer feedback was very positive:
- Coal powder utilization increased by approximately 40%
- The selling price of finished fuel increased significantly
- Transportation losses were significantly reduced
- Products are more easily accepted into the industrial fuel market
Previously accumulated powdery byproducts have now become a stable source of profit. The company’s overall profitability has improved.



Project summary
This export case demonstrates that the coal briquette making machine is not merely a forming equipment, but also a key tool for enhancing the profitability of fuel companies.
