Hookah Charcoal Machine
Selecting a hookah charcoal machine (shisha charcoal press machine) requires specific production data, pressure requirements, and an understanding of the material formulation.
Our technical document breaks down the operational metrics of three primary equipment types: mechanical, hydraulic, and fully automatic models.

1. Mechanical Shisha Charcoal Press Machine
The 25 ton shisha charcoal machine utilizes a mechanical transmission system to compress charcoal powder. It provides a baseline density of 1.2 to 1.3 tons per cubic meter, meeting standard export requirements for hookah charcoal.
Equipment Parameters
Pressure: 25 tons
Power: 7.5kw
Dimensions: 1.7m x 1.5m x 1.2m
Weight: 1500 kg
Briquette Thickness: Adjustable from 8mm to 30mm
Capacity and Output Rate
This machine processes approximately 300kg/h. The stamping frequency varies based on the mold configuration.
| Shape | Specification | Output per Stroke | Strokes per Minute |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round shisha charcoal machine (33mm/40mm) | 30mm, 33mm | 14 pieces | 22 times/min |
| Round | 40mm (8-9g) | 8-10 pieces | 22 times/min |
| Cube hookah charcoal machine (25mm/26mm) | 22mm, 25mm, 26mm | 15 pieces | 20 times/min |
Shisha Charcoal Manufacturing Process / Formula
The raw material must be charcoal powder under 3mm in size. Coal powder is strictly prohibited due to toxicity and odor issues in hookah applications.
- Binder Ratio: 3-5% Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) mixed with 20-25% water. Starch is not recommended as it compromises the smokeless, odorless, and waterproof standards.
- Ignition Accelerator: Add approximately 6% of either methyl formate, n-pentane, ferric nitrate, or sodium perchlorate. This ensures a burning time of 40-60 minutes.
- Troubleshooting: If the hopper experiences feeding blockages, introduce a calculated amount of water to dilute the mixture.
- Maintenance Protocol: Apply grease to gears and engine oil to bearings weekly during the initial phase, extending to every 10-15 days subsequently.
2. Hydraulic Shisha Charcoal Making Machine
The hydraulic shisha charcoal making machine operates at a much higher pressure threshold, suitable for facilities requiring extreme briquette density or processing materials with additives like sawdust and wax.
Technical Configurations
- Pressure: 100 tons (No external pressure gauge; pressure correlates directly with pump capacity).
- Power Configuration: 15kw main motor + two 0.75kw motors controlling the hydraulic pump, conveyor belt, and discharging mechanism independently.
- System Dimensions:
- Host: 850 x 2000 x 2100 mm
- Pumping Station: 1200 x 900 x 1200 mm
- Control Cabinet: 800 x 500 x 1000 mm
- Conveyor: 800 x 1800 x 800 mm
- Total Weight: 2.8 tons
Production Metrics and Sensor Integration
The machine features a T-shaped hopper (Top: 450x700mm, Bottom: 220x500mm, Height: 800mm) and utilizes a smart induction probe to precisely adjust the finished charcoal height between 1cm and 6cm.
| Shape | Specification | Output per Stroke | Strokes per Minute |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round | 30mm | 42 pieces | 4 times/min |
| Square | 25mm x 25mm x 25mm | 44 pieces | 4 times/min |
| Hexagon | Length 7cm, Diagonal 5cm | Custom Mold | 4 times/min |
3. Automatic Hookah Charcoal Press (Shuliy 80-100 Ton Series)
For large-scale industrial operations, the automatic hookah charcoal press offers high-volume multi-cavity output. This model uses a downward demolding system to increase line efficiency.
System Specifications
- Dimensions: 2500mm x 750mm x 2300mm
- Weight: 1000 KG
- Voltage: 380V industrial standard
- Power: 13kw
- Pressure Options: 80 tons or 100 tons
High-Volume Mold Data
This machine operates at a fixed rate of 3 mold cycles per minute. The production volume scales based on the specified die dimensions.
| Finished Product Dimensions | Pieces per Mold | Output Frequency | Demolding Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Square 2cm x 2cm | 90 pieces | 3 times/min | Downward Demolding |
| Square 2.5cm x 2.5cm | 80 pieces | 3 times/min | Downward Demolding |
| Round Diameter 3cm | 72 pieces | 3 times/min | Downward Demolding |
| Round Diameter 3.3cm | 56 pieces | 3 times/min | Downward Demolding |
| Round Diameter 4cm | 42 pieces | 3 times/min | Downward Demolding |
Equipment Selection Based on Production Requirements
Review the exact production volume and briquette specifications before finalizing a hookah charcoal briquette machine.
- 25 Ton Mechanical: Suitable for operations needing a continuous output of 300kg/h with frequent pressing cycles (up to 22 times/minute).
- 100 Ton Hydraulic: Built for thick, high-density products (up to 6cm height) and facilities utilizing custom raw material blends like wax and sawdust.
- 80-100 Ton Automatic: Designed for automated assembly lines requiring maximum per-cycle output (up to 90 pieces per stroke) via a downward demolding architecture.
