Proven in the plant.
Engineered for the long run.

Every bulk material handling system we engineer or revamp begins with the same discipline: understand the raw material, calculate the drop trajectory, protect the steel structure, and deliver an installation that runs without unplanned stops.

Elevated clinker conveyor line and transfer chute in a cement plant Cement · Hot Clinker · 450 t/h Cement & Minerals
CEMENT & MINERALS

Clinker Overland Conveyor & Dome Reclaim System

High-temperature clinker transport from kiln cooler to dome storage, featuring custom rock-box impact transfer chutes and heavy-duty dust containment skirting.

The Challenge

Clinker arrives from the cooler at over 120°C with severe abrasive quartz and nodule characteristics. Drop heights created airborne dust clouds and rapid puncture wear on conventional rubber belts. Deep dome dead zones caused clinker hydration and agglomeration during humid periods.

The Engineering Solution

Engineered a heat-resistant EP belt conveyor (T200 grade) with stepped rock-box impact chutes to decelerate material gently. Designed multi-point hopper reclaim beneath the dome with manganese liner plates and double-seal polyurethane skirtings.

BIOMASS & ENERGY

Biomass Boiler Feed & Anti-Bridging Storage Reclaim

Turnkey fuel reception, screening, and automated live-bottom reclaim system feeding a 20 MW industrial biomass boiler with uneven forestry chips.

The Challenge

Forest chips arrived with unpredictable moisture (30–55%) and high sliver content, causing recurrent ratholing and bridging in conventional conical silos, plus frequent screw jams from stringy fibres wrapping around shafts.

The Engineering Solution

Implemented a heavy-duty hydraulic push-floor reclaim bunker discharging to dual heavy-duty shaftless screw feeders. Added an oversize disc scalper and enclosed gallery troughed belt conveyor directly into boiler metering bins.

STEEL & METALLURGY

Blast Furnace Sinter & Coke Conveyor Modernisation

Full mechanical revamp of a 40-year-old overhead conveyor gallery: replacing rigid idlers with garland suspension, strengthening steel trusses, and upgrading drive units.

The Challenge

Severe structural vibrations, frequent idler bearing failures, and high belt mistracking under irregular lump loading of heavy iron ore sinter (2.2 t/m³ bulk density). Severe production penalty for any unplanned blast furnace stoppage.

The Engineering Solution

Conducted structural stress checks on existing gantries. Re-engineered idler stations to 3-roll garland suspended assemblies to self-center the belt and absorb dynamic impacts. Installed modular tungsten-carbide secondary scrapers.

Glass cullet batch handling plant with sealed chutes and bucket elevator Glassmaking · Recycled Cullet · 85 t/h Glass & Ceramics
GLASS & CERAMICS

Cullet Batch Handling & Sealed Furnace Feed Circuit

Abrasive recycled cullet and fine sand transport featuring ceramic-lined transfer chutes, sealed vibratory dosing, and high-durability continuous bucket elevator.

The Challenge

Recycled glass cullet is razor-sharp and causes extreme gouging abrasion on standard mild steel sheets. Fine silica batch generated health-hazardous dust requiring total air containment around the furnace hall.

The Engineering Solution

Designed chutes lined with 92% alumina ceramic tiles and curved rock-slide impact angles. Integrated an enclosed continuous-discharge bucket elevator with hardened steel chains, sealed inspection doors, and dedusting tap-offs.

Port and rail bulk terminal with high-tonnage shuttle conveyor and tripper carriage Port Logistics · Aggregates & Ores · 1,200 t/h Port Terminals & Minerals
PORT TERMINALS & MINERALS

Rail Reception & Automated Shuttle Tripper Distribution

High-tonnage rail wagon discharge line and overhead shuttle conveyor distributing imported minerals into 6 independent concrete storage bays.

The Challenge

Wagon unload trains demanded immediate turnaround: 1,200 t/h reception with instantaneous diversion between multiple storage bays without stopping the main feeder line or creating material spillage.

The Engineering Solution

Engineered a rail-mounted motorized tripper car with electro-pneumatic two-way pant-leg diverter chute, reversible shuttle belt, ultrasonic bin level detection, and automated PLC positioning controls.

Enclosed stainless steel fertiliser bulk conveying gallery and wash-down system Chemical / Agro · Granular NPK · 200 t/h Chemical & Fertiliser
CHEMICAL & FERTILISER

Conditioned Storage Transfer & Anti-Corrosion Belt Circuit

Fully enclosed, washable stainless steel conveying and elevation circuit handling hygroscopic fertilizer granules without crushing or caking.

The Challenge

Water-soluble fertilizer salts (NPK, ammonium nitrate) are aggressive to mild steel and quickly dissolve in ambient humidity, leaving corrosive crusts that seize idlers. Fragile granules break easily on hard impacts.

The Engineering Solution

Constructed 304L stainless steel tubular gallery conveyors with fully self-draining wash-down geometry. Installed polymer-cased idlers, gentle curved low-drop transfer chutes, and stainless continuous bucket elevators.

PLANT MODERNISATION & ENGINEERING

Brownfield Line Re-engineering & Structural Capacity Verification

Capacity upgrade of an existing 180-metre gantry conveyor by 40%: 3D laser-scan interference check, drive recalculation, and targeted structural reinforcements without building new steel.

The Challenge

The plant needed to increase throughput from 350 t/h to 500 t/h on an existing gallery, but the original structural drawings were missing. Risk of overloading gantry trusses and failing drive foundations.

The Engineering Solution

Conducted a complete 3D LiDAR point-cloud survey of the structure and piping interfaces. Modeled the steelwork in finite element analysis, defined 14 targeted local flange reinforcements, and specified a high-efficiency VFD drive package.

05 / OUR DELIVERY PROCESS
