It is the object of the present invention to provide a method of controlling a pellet mill, said pellet mill comprising—a number of rollers (2,3,4),—a cylindrical die (1) provided with perforations, said rollers (2,3,4) being mounted inside said cylindrical die (1) for pressing material to be pelletized through said perforations,—an adjustment mechanism (5,6,7) for adjusting the distance between the rollers (2,3,4) and the die, (1)—a drive mechanism (M4) for rotationally driving said die (1) and said rollers (2,3,4), said method of controlling comprising the steps of—providing a measurement (8,9,10,11,12,13,14) of a parameter (x,y,z, W1,W2,W3,W4), said parameter indicating if an overload of the pellet mill is arising, and—in case of such indication being detected, reducing the load on the pellet mill by suitable counter-measures. |
