When your process demands efficient densification, dust control, or uniform particle formation, briquetters and Chilsonators offer powerful solutions across a wide range of industries. With over 47 years of experience, IPP provides immediate access to high-quality used compaction equipment sourced from 20 complete plant sites and included in our inventory of over 15,000 ready-to-ship pieces of equipment. Choosing used briquetters and Chilsonators from IPP helps companies control capital expenses while securing reliable, production-ready equipment.

Briquetters compress powders or bulk solids into dense, uniform shapes such as briquettes or pellets, improving material handling, storage, and transport.

Chilsonators, a specialized type of roll compactor, compress powders into sheets or ribbons that are later milled into granules or briquettes. Both technologies play critical roles in industries where material uniformity and flowability are key.

Primary uses across industries

In chemical manufacturing, briquetters and Chilsonators compact catalysts, specialty chemicals, and fertilizers into easier-to-handle forms.
In pharmaceutical production, Chilsonators create uniform granules for tablet production.
In food processing, they compact powders like spices, flours, and specialty ingredients for easy packaging and blending.
In metals and mining, briquetters reclaim valuable metal fines and compress mineral powders for efficient handling.
In agriculture and biomass industries, briquetters densify crop residues and organic materials for fuel and feedstock applications.

Types of materials processed

Fine powders and dust-prone materials
Moist or cohesive bulk solids needing densification
Abrasive or high-density materials
Sensitive pharmaceutical or food-grade powders

Common materials of construction

Briquetters and Chilsonators are built for durability, sanitary compliance, or heavy-duty processing:

Stainless steel for pharmaceutical, food, and sanitary chemical applications
Carbon steel for general industrial and mining processes
Hardened alloy components for abrasive or high-pressure applications

Key features of briquetters and Chilsonators

High compaction forces to create dense, uniform products
Options for continuous or batch operation
Adjustable pressure and gap settings for precise product control
Designs that minimize dust and material loss
Easy integration with downstream crushing or sizing systems
