Gold for Krone Premos 5000

Premos 5000 – it’s all in the name; Premos (system Kalverkamp) is derived from the Latin ‘premere’ (to press), whilst the number refers to the hopper capacity, which is 5000 kg (up to 9 m³). The machine has a throughput of 5000 kg per hour, making it far more efficient than most conventional stationary pelletizers.
This is how it works: The pickup with a 2.35 m working width picks up the crop which is then transported from the feed rotor to a conveyor belt (crop flow width approx. 800 mm). The material is fed between two press rollers (800 mm wide, 800 mm in diameter), each with alternating rows of teeth and perforations. The crop is forced through the matrix of perforations into the interior of the roller. After pressing the pellets are transported via an internal screw conveyor to a conveyor belt and from there, to an integrated hopper.
Premos pellets are just as easy to handle and transport as other bulk materials. The bulk density of the pellets lies between 600 and 700 kg/m³ (3 to 4 times higher than straw bales). 2.5 kg of pellets can replace approx. 1 kg of heating oil, resulting in significant cost savings compared with heating oil and other fossil fuels.
The DLG gold medal will be officially presented to Krone at the Agritechnica in Hannover.
