Ex Demo Falach 50 Briquette Machine

Falach ·Briquette & Wood Waste

We are excited to offer our demonstration Falach 50 briquette machine with 5 Bag carousel unit, currently in stock and ready for sale. Falach is now the Leading Choice of Hydraulic Briquette Machines converting wood waste and other materials into renewable energy briquettes which have been Certified to meet the “Clean Air Strategy” producing same heat as Coal and no Air Pollutants.

The Falach 50 briquette machine comes complete with a 6-month parts warranty.

(Other machines arriving on a regular basis, please call for details)

Typically chosen by

  • Joinery and timber workshops with consistent daily waste output looking to eliminate or reduce skip collections
  • Operations that need a machine running unattended for periods, without requiring an operator to monitor it constantly
  • Businesses wanting to produce briquettes for resale or on-site heating rather than paying to dispose of waste

Before you commit

Send us a sample - we’ll test your material first

Not all waste streams briquette equally. Moisture content, particle size, and material mix all affect output quality and briquette consistency. We’ll run your material on the machine and report back before you make any decision.

Key specification considerations

Production Rate
40–60 kg/hour
At full rate, the 0.33 m³ hopper will need reloading roughly every 20–30 minutes depending on material density — worth considering alongside your feed workflow.
Briquette Diameter
50mm
Power Supply
3-phase, 16A — 5.5 kW pump motor / 3.8 kW/hr consumption
Confirm your workshop has a suitable 3-phase 16A supply available at the intended installation point before ordering.
Noise Level
68 dB
68 dB is roughly the level of a normal conversation — unlikely to require acoustic treatment in most workshop environments.

SpecificationValueNotes
Production Rate
40–60 kg/hour
Briquette Diameter
50mm
Briquette Density
700–900 kg/m³
Higher density means more energy per bag and better storage efficiency — comparable to solid hardwood logs by weight.
Material Compatibility
All wood waste — shavings, dust, chippings, MDF; max moisture 15%; max chip size 15mm
Moisture above 15% will reduce briquette density and can cause binding issues — check your material before running if it has been stored wet.
Dimensions (L × W × H)
1860 × 890 × 1100 mm
Allow additional clearance around all sides for hopper loading, briquette discharge, and operator access — the footprint alone will not reflect the working space required.
Weight
390 kg
Hopper Volume
0.33 m³
Pump Motor Input
5.5 kW
Power Consumption
3.8 kW/hour
Power Supply
3-phase, 16A
Confirm supply availability at the installation point before ordering.
Operation
Continuous
Oil Cooler
Yes
The hydraulic cooler helps maintain consistent performance during extended continuous runs, reducing the risk of heat-related slowdowns.
Auto Reverse Vertical Agitator
Yes
Prevents material bridging in the hopper, reducing the need for manual intervention when running shavings or fine dust that tend to clump.
Automatic Switch-out
Yes
The machine can shut down automatically when conditions require it, allowing safer unattended operation.
Electrically Interlocked Lid
Yes
The machine cannot operate with the lid open, which is a practical safety requirement for most workshop risk assessments.
Chromed Piston and Press Chamber
Yes
Chrome lining on the piston and chamber improves wear resistance and helps maintain consistent briquette density over time.
Noise Level
68 dB
Certification
UKCA; Clean Air Strategy compliant
UKCA is the UK conformity mark required for machinery placed on the GB market post-Brexit; Clean Air Strategy compliance means briquettes produced meet government standards for burning in smoke control areas.

Is this the right
machine for you?

Choose the Ex Demo Falach 50 Briquette Machine if...

  • Your workshop produces enough waste to justify 40–60 kg/hour output and you want a machine that can run continuously through the day
  • You need a lower-profile installation — at 1100mm high, this machine sits notably lower than the XL variants and may suit tighter or mezzanine spaces
  • You want the agitator and automatic switch-out features to reduce hands-on supervision during production runs
  • Your waste material is primarily fine shavings or dust that benefits from the agitator preventing hopper bridging

Consider an alternate model if...

  • Your waste output is lower or less consistent — the Falach 30 (25–35 kg/hr) or Falach 35 (30–40 kg/hr) may be better matched and represent less capital outlay
  • You need a smaller physical footprint — the Falach 20 or Falach 20XL are significantly more compact at 1250mm long versus 1860mm on this machine
  • You are manually loading from extraction bags and want to reload less frequently — the Falach 50XL carries the same output rate but has a 0.75 m³ hopper (more than double the capacity of this machine) that can accept four full extraction bags at a time, making it the better choice if hopper reloading frequency is your main constraint
  • Your 3-phase supply is unavailable or uncertain — discuss your electrical situation with us before specifying any machine in this range
