The ring die equipment of Liyang JARAY Machinery Manufacturing Factory made its maiden voyage to the Netherlands to promote the development of biomass energy in Europe
March 7, 2025 – JARAY Machinery Manufacturing Factory, Liyang, China, today announced that its self-developed high-performance ring die equipment has officially shipped to the Netherlands, marking the company’s first entry into the European biomass energy equipment market. The partnership aims to meet the urgent need for sustainable energy production equipment in the Netherlands and help it achieve its goal of 50% renewable energy by 2030.
Cooperation background and technical advantages
In recent years, the Netherlands has stepped up the development of biomass energy, planning to replace traditional fossil energy with pellet fuel. JARAY’s ring die machines are favored by Dutch customers with the following advantages:
Materials and processes: using high-strength stainless steel (X46Cr13) and forged wear-resistant alloy steel (20CrMnTi), combined with vacuum heat treatment process, the service life is increased by 30% compared with traditional products;
Adaptability design: The modular structure supports rapid replacement, and the compression ratio can be customized according to the characteristics of raw materials, which is suitable for the production needs of various biomass pellets such as wood and straw;
Environmentally friendly and efficient: Hard-polished inner wall and intelligent air-cooling system reduce energy consumption, solve the problem of high-temperature production, and meet EU carbon emission standards.
Project significance and future planning
The exported ring dies will be used in a biomass power plant in the Netherlands, and the annual production capacity is expected to increase by 15%. JARAY plans to set up a service center in Rotterdam to provide localized technical support, and explore cooperation with European companies in supporting equipment such as smart pellet machines and coolers. Officials from the Dutch Energy Agency said that the technological iteration of Made in China provides an efficient solution for Europe’s green transition.
Bulletin Highlights
The demand for biomass pellets in the Netherlands has surged, the localization rate of equipment is less than 40%, and the dependence on imports is high; JARAY has previously verified its adaptability to high temperature environments through the Saudi Arabia project; The European market may become the next growth pole of the globalization of Liyang machinery enterprises.
