The productivity of the biomass granulator is an important parameter to evaluate the quality of the equipment, where the structure of granulator is one of the important influencing factors. In this paper, the basic forming conditions of the granulator are analysed to determine the relationship between the material intake angle and the friction coefficient; Then, the height of the material pressed by the granulator and the influence of the structural parameters of the ring-die and the press roller are obtained; Finally, the empirical correlation between the productivity and the structural parameters of the ring-die biomass granulator is presented. The results show that: 1) the material intake angle β should be less than 26°; 2) When the height of biomass material is fixed, the diameter of the roller should increase with the diameter of ring-die.
