- We assisted an equipment manufacturer at a cement plant in Missouri with the replacement of an existing drag conveyor feeding the VSK separator with a new air chute. The project included mechanical, electrical and civil/structural engineering, design criteria, calculations, bill of quantities and drawings, and the review of shop drawings.
- In preparation for a large-scale repair job at a granite granules facility in Wisconsin, we scanned the mill building and created an RCAP file to be used in 3D models. This information was used to generate mechanical as-built drawings in plan, elevation and section view of a belt conveyor.
- A Feasibility Study for the upgrade of a clinker handling storage at a cement plant included scanning the storage barn and clinker silos, tops, bottom and sides, providing drawings and evaluating four options including the CAPEX for feeding both existing finish mills.
- PENTA conducted a structural support analysis of a cement plant’s 24-silo bank rendering a report of findings, analysis, recommendations, and the CAPEX for remedial works.
- A CAPEX study for a new 460-ton hydrated lime silo for a lime plant in Texas included flowsheets, equipment list and general arrangements.
- PENTA provided a tire handling 3D scanning and modeling of the existing system at a cement plant in South Carolina and proposed an economical system modification. A high level model of the area was prepared to allow the equipment supplier to use its design.
