This RUF RB 440 is a used wood press — also known as a briquetting press or briquette machine — a type of industrial compaction equipment designed to process wood waste, shavings, sawdust, and similar materials into dense, uniform briquettes suitable for fuel or biomass applications. RUF is a well-established German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing high-performance briquetting systems used across the woodworking, timber processing, and waste management industries.
What makes this particular listing especially noteworthy is that the RB 440 press is integrated into a fully mobile briquetting plant, mounted on a truck and ready to operate on-site wherever it is needed. The press itself has been completely overhauled and is accompanied by full supporting documentation. Its rated output is approximately one tonne of briquettes per two hours of operation. Key components have been replaced as part of the overhaul: the hydraulic pump (Linde), the discharge gearbox, and the intake blower motor are all new, and a complete hydraulic oil change of 200 litres has been carried out. A quantity of PE packaging bags sufficient for approximately 90 tonnes of briquettes is included in the sale, along with spare parts made available due to the seller's business closure. Full operational instruction and training are also provided.
The carrier vehicle is a MAN 14.232, manufactured in 1990, with a recorded mileage of 335,937 kilometres. The truck has been fitted with a new, reinforced flatbed manufactured by Suhr. It has received a new roadworthiness certificate (TÜV) valid until January 2026, and all six tyres are new. The front axle brakes have been relined. The vehicle is classified as a special-purpose work machine, is road-legal, authorised for use in environmental zones (Green Badge), and is tax-exempt. The entire unit is currently located in Germany.
