3MT (Mid Michigan Milling Technologies) was founded in 2021 with a focus on developing practical equipment and system solutions for pellet production and bulk material handling operations.
The foundation of 3MT began long before the company was officially formed.
Growing up around pellet mills, the founders of 3MT spent years working inside pellet production environments.
From a young age, summers were spent working in a wood pellet plant—running baggers and stacking 40-lb bags of pellets during production.
Those early years provided firsthand exposure to how pellet mills operate and the challenges that come with maintaining stable production systems.
As pellet markets changed over the years, that early experience expanded into rebuilding and servicing pellet equipment.
Our team helped rebuild pellet mills, screeners, and material handling systems while assisting with equipment resales and plant support projects.
This work provided valuable experience in understanding how pellet production systems function, how different materials behave, and how equipment must be configured to operate reliably.

While working in plastics compounding operations, a pellet mill was introduced to palletize plastic materials for extrusion.
To simplify feeding the pellet mill, a new hopper and screw feeding system was developed that allowed operators to dump material directly from bulk containers into the pellet mill feed system.
That concept eventually evolved into what is now known as the PSM pellet mill feeder platform, which has since become a key product developed by 3MT.
In 2021, the experience gained from years working with pellet mills, rebuilding equipment, and developing feeding systems led to the formation of Mid Michigan Milling Technologies.
The company was founded to help manufacturers develop practical pellet production systems and material handling solutions based on real operational experience.
Since then, 3MT has worked with companies across several industries to develop feeding systems, batching equipment, and pellet production solutions designed to improve plant performance.
3MT focuses on practical solutions that work in real production environments.
Rather than relying on overly complex designs, the goal is to develop equipment and systems that are:
• reliable
• easy to maintain
• adaptable to different materials
• capable of stabilizing production processes
This approach has helped companies improve pellet mill feeding, ingredient batching, and overall material handling performance.
Today, 3MT continues to develop equipment and system solutions including:
• PSM pellet mill feeders
• LIW / GIW metering systems
• material handling equipment
• pellet production consulting
• plant layout and system design
As the company continues to grow, the goal remains the same — helping manufacturers develop practical systems that keep their operations running smoothly.
If your operation is developing a pellet production system or improving an existing plant, 3MT can help develop practical equipment and system solutions.
