IWM Soukup Briquette Machine (60 - 70)

Soukup ·IWM

The IWM Soukup Briquette machine is trusted by many customers who rely on it to help them recycle their waste wood into a revenue stream. IWM Machines have become the UK’s leading choice for hydraulic briquette machines, efficiently converting wood waste and other materials into renewable energy briquettes. These briquettes are fully certified under the UK Clean Air Strategy, providing the same heat output as coal while producing no harmful air pollutants.

Typically chosen by

  • Joinery and timber workshops looking to offset waste disposal costs by converting shavings and dust into saleable or burnable briquettes
  • Businesses with continuous production runs who need a press that doesn't require manual cycling between batches
  • Workshops seeking a used machine at a lower entry cost than a new equivalent, where output in the 60–70 kg/hour range comfortably meets their waste volume

Key specification considerations

Output
60–70 kg/hour
At a typical shavings bulk density, this equates to a meaningful reduction in skip or bag waste over a full production shift.
Briquette Diameter
60 mm
Operation
Continuous
The machine runs without stopping between cycles, which suits workshops with a steady, uninterrupted feed of waste material rather than batch processing.
Power Supply
3-phase, 32A — 7.5 kW pump motor
Confirm your workshop has a 3-phase 32A supply available before ordering — this is not suitable for single-phase installations.

SpecificationValueNotes
Production
60–70 kg/hour
Briquette Diameter
60 mm
Dimensions (L × W × H)
1940 × 1250 × 1470 mm
Allow additional clearance around all sides for material feed, extraction ducting, and safe operator access — the footprint alone will not reflect the full space required.
Weight
1270 kg
At over 1,000 kg, floor loading capacity should be verified with your building surveyor or structural engineer before installation.
Pump Motor Input
7.5 kW
Power Supply
3-phase, 32A
Confirm supply availability with your electrician before specifying this machine.
Operation
Continuous
Automatic Switch-out
Yes
The machine will shut itself down automatically under defined conditions, reducing the need for constant operator supervision during a run.
Oil Cooler
No
Without an oil cooler, hydraulic oil temperature should be monitored during extended runs — speak to IWM if your workshop operates the machine for prolonged periods without breaks.
Noise Level
68 dB
68 dB is roughly equivalent to a normal conversation at close range — acoustic treatment is unlikely to be required at this level, though workplace noise assessments should still follow standard practice.
Condition
Used
Service history, hours of use, and any work carried out prior to sale are available on request — contact IWM directly for full details before specifying.

Is this the right
machine for you?

Choose the IWM Soukup Briquette Machine (60 - 70) if...

  • Your workshop generates enough waste to justify a dedicated briquette press and 60–70 kg/hour output comfortably handles your volume
  • You need continuous operation rather than a machine that stops between cycles
  • You want to enter briquetting at a lower capital cost and a good-condition used machine is acceptable
  • You have a confirmed 3-phase 32A supply and floor loading capacity to suit a 1,270 kg machine

Consider an alternate model if...

  • Your waste volumes are higher and you need greater throughput — talk to us about the IWM Falach 70 and other higher-capacity briquetting options in our current range
  • You prefer a new or ex-demo machine with known provenance — the BrikStar EK (ex-demo) may be a more appropriate starting point for that conversation
  • Your workshop runs on single-phase power only — this machine cannot be adapted for single-phase supply
  • Your production is intermittent or low-volume and the output of this press would exceed your actual waste generation, leaving the machine underutilised
