Pelleting is a cornerstone process in industries ranging from animal feed production to biomass energy generation. Achieving maximum efficiency in pelleting requires not only high-quality equipment but also adherence to proven best practices. Schutte Hammermill, with decades of expertise in size reduction, offers industry-leading equipment and insights to help you optimize your pelleting operations.
The Role of Size Reduction in Pelleting
Effective pelleting begins with precise size reduction. Uniform particle size ensures consistent pellet quality, reduces energy consumption, and minimizes wear on pelleting equipment. Schutte Hammermill’s hammer mills are designed to deliver the fine, consistent particle size needed for efficient pelleting.
Our hammer mills are engineered to handle a wide range of materials, from soft grains to tough biomass. With customizable screens, rotors, and configurations, these mills ensure optimal size reduction tailored to your production goals.
Key Features of Schutte Hammermill Equipment for Pelleting
- High Throughput Rates: Maximize production efficiency with equipment capable of handling high volumes of material.

Best Practices for Boosting Pelleting Efficiency
- Pre-Processing Preparation: Ensure raw materials are clean and free from contaminants to prevent equipment damage and maintain pellet quality.
- Proper Size Reduction: Use a hammer mill to achieve the ideal particle size for your material. Smaller, uniform particles result in better pellet compression and reduced energy use.
- Optimal Moisture Content: Maintain the right moisture level in your material. Too much or too little moisture can compromise pellet quality and increase energy consumption.
- Routine Maintenance: Regularly inspect and replace wear parts such as hammers, screens, and bearings to maintain consistent performance and reduce downtime.
- Monitor Pellet Quality: Regularly test pellets for durability and density to ensure they meet industry standards and customer expectations.
