By the numbers:
- We have tested over 13,000 bulk materials (powders & solids)
- Completed over 7,500 projects in all types of industries
- Accumulated over 650 years of bulk solids experience
Over the years we have:
- Developed and commercialized the science of powder and bulk solids testing
- Created specialized testers to assess powder segregation of blends
- Designed new testers to measure tendencies for abrasive wear and attrition
- Performed thousands of plant site visits around the world
- Engineered thousands of:
- Silos, bins, hoppers, and transfer chutes
- Feeders such as screws, belts, rotary valves, vibratory
- Conveying systems (pneumatic and mechanical)
- Designed unique solids processing systems for: drying, heating, cooling, fluidizing, purging, blending, classifying
- Built modern engineering tools to design/evaluate:
- Silo/bins, feeders, and gravity reclaim stockpiles
- Chutes using Discrete Element Modeling (DEM)
- Silo/bins experiencing material induced loading
- Complex geometries for structural analysis/design
- Constructed proprietary models analyzing gas/solids interaction for:
- Pneumatic conveying (dilute phase transport)
- Solids purging and drying
- Discharge rate limitations
- Powder settlement
