“Getting equipment to run is easy. Getting it to run consistently is where experience matters.”
3MT provides on-site startup and commissioning support to help operators successfully bring pellet production and material handling systems into operation.
From the first startup to stable production, we work alongside plant operators to adjust equipment, stabilize material flow, and ensure the system performs as intended.

Even well-designed systems often require adjustment during the first startup.
Material flow, feed rates, batching sequences, and equipment coordination must be tuned so the system operates smoothly.
Having experienced support during this stage can help operators avoid production instability and shorten the time required to reach consistent operation.
3MT startup support focuses on ensuring that all equipment works together as intended.
Typical startup activities may include:
• verifying feeder and conveyor operation
• adjusting pellet mill feed rates
• testing batching system performance
• confirming material flow through hoppers and transfer points
• stabilizing pellet mill loading conditions
This process helps ensure the system performs reliably before full production begins.
During commissioning, plant operators gain hands-on experience with the equipment and control system.
3MT works with plant personnel to explain how the system operates, how adjustments can be made, and how to recognize potential material flow issues before they affect production.
This helps operators confidently run the system once startup is complete.

The goal of commissioning support is not just to start equipment, but to help the plant reach stable and predictable production.
This may include adjusting feed rates, refining batching sequences, or improving material flow conditions until the system operates consistently.
Once these adjustments are complete, the plant can transition into normal production with confidence.
Startup support can be provided for systems including:
• pellet mill feeding systems
• PSM feeders
• batching and metering systems
• mixers and blending systems
• bulk material handling equipment
If you are preparing to start a new pellet production system or commissioning new equipment, 3MT can provide on-site support to help ensure a smooth startup.
