The article presents the results of study on the influence of geometrical parameters of the forming channels on axial force which is the main parameter of the agglomeration process of dry ice in the piston method. During research, the material was agglomerated utilizing different dies. The material is characterized by low temperature and sublimation under standard environmental conditions. The study focuses on determining the influence of geometrical parameters of the conical and cylindrical sections of the forming chamber which influence the value of yield stress in the carbon dioxide agglomeration process. The determination of the value of boundary force is the basis for formulating the construction assumptions which shall be the basis for designing and constructing the dry ice compaction and pelletization machine.
