BRIQUETTE PRESSES
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Precise cylinder control

thanks to contactless proximity switches

The cylinders are controlled electrically

via a no-contact proximity switch. The
Low-wear pressing process limit switches are located at the front and
thanks to wear sleeve and plates rear positions, so movements are very
precise and maintenance costs are low
To minimize unavoidable wear during due to low wear.
the briquetting process, WEIMA uses
easy-to-change PU plates bolted to the
filling cylinder for pre-compaction in
the filling tower. In addition, a specially
hardened inlay, the so-called wear
sleeve, is used in the pressing chamber
below. It can also be replaced quickly.
Overall, this significantly reduces
maintenance costs.

machine switches off automatically when
the filling level falls below a certain level.

Compact briquettes up to 80 mm Ø
with low-maintenance clamping technology

The hydraulically precisely-controlled pressing

clamp in the front area of the pressing mecha-
nism with its specially hardened pressing
cylinder ensures high-strength, round briquettes
with a diameter of up to 80 mm. The proven
technical system has been used by thousands
of customers worldwide for decades. And
WEIMA is constantly developing it further.
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Uniform, high-quality briquettes

due to briquette length monitoring

The length of the briquettes produced can be

adjusted individually, from half the diameter to
1.5 times the diameter. The supplied standard
briquette length monitoring with proximity switch
ensures that the briquette length always remains
constant – even with changing material flows.

for long service life

The hydraulic unit has a separate oil tank

with pump motor and complete valve
control. The compact design right next
to the material hopper makes the entire
briquetting press extremely space-saving
and efficient in design.

Safe, low-vibration footing

due to robust machine frames and rubber feet

All WEIMA briquetting presses are supplied with

vibration-dampening machine feet made of hard rubber.
They ensure a safe footing without the machine having to
be anchored to the floor. This makes the entire installation
extremely flexible and convenient. A sturdy welded
base frame creates an operator- and maintenance-
friendly, low installation height.
