DETAILED DESIGN OF A BULK SOLIDS PROCESS OR EQUIPMENT

When faced with unique bulk solids handling challenges, our engineers are equipped to develop innovative mechanical designs specifically suited for your applications.

Our detailed engineering may involve:

 
  • 3D modeling
  • Building a prototype or proof of concept model
  • Mechanical designs for equipment fabrication
  • During detailed engineering, we include the flowability parameters of the bulk solid, as determined through flow properties testing. This approach eliminates typical problems seen in solids handling designs when the storage system is specified without a complete understanding of a material’s flowability.

    Common equipment components we engineer include:

     
  • BINSERT®
  • Mass flow screw
  • Processing vessel
  •  
  • Slide gate
  • Solids pump
  • Tumble blender
  •  
  • Distributor
  • Transfer chute
  • Metering system
  • Typical detailed engineering designs for equipment include:

     
  • General arrangements and complete dimensions
  • Materials of construction, thicknesses and section views
  • Weld and/or joint callouts
  • Notes for fabrication/installation
  • Contact us to discuss our extensive detailed engineering capabilities which can help to reduce or eliminate risk with your process or unique bulk solids equipment application.
