BULK MATERIALs HANDLING SYSTEMS DESIGN WA
Our Material Handling team has decades of experience in mechanical engineering & design of bulk materials handling systems and equipment.
We specialise in a wide range of areas within the bulk materials handling domain, including detailed conveyor designs, brownfields conveyor audits, design documentation & equipment selection.
Our experience & services include equipment & plant optimization & maintenance plans to optimize your material handling operations, streamline workflows, and maximize productivity.
We provide services to the following sectors:
- Quarrying – Crushing & Screen Plants
- Mining
- Ports & Terminals
- Minerals Processing Plants
Detailed Conveyor Designs
- Design of new conveyor systems
- Optimize conveyor designs
- Determine baseline data prior to upgrades
- Update design data, equipment lists & documentation
DEM & FEA Simulation
- Reduce dust levels & chute wear
- Improve belt tracking
- Dynamic analysis of structures
- 3D Party structural design audits
Comminution
- Plant flow simulation & analysis
- Crushing plant optimization
- Audit existing plants for efficiency & utilization
- Equipment selection, sizing and design of comminution circuits
Our experience with handling of bulk products includes Coal, Iron Ore, Lithium and Aggregates. Our services and expertise include layouts, design and specification of equipment for the following:
- Crushing & Screening Plant
- Conveyor Systems
- Chutes & Hoppers
- Ship Loading
- Rail & Truck Loading Systems.
Our design team expertise complements our fabrication and manufacturing capabilities.
Utilising the latest in 3D CAD software and analysis software our engineering team can produce a full range of deliverables from concept designs, site layouts, detailed workshop drawings, mechanical drawings, civil & structural drawings.
Our Team can also support Bulk Material Handling projects through Discrete Element Modelling (DEM) – calculation-based modelling which allows visualization of results. DEM accounts for particle velocity, forces (shear and normal), acceleration and material scatter, and more. DEM goes beyond flow simulation of bulk materials to provide advanced information regarding wear patterns, mixing, and center loading.
Correct equipment selection, sizing, and layout all play a key role in the design of comminution circuits. A complete process design capability, including comminution optimization and mineral processing is an integral part of the mining and prepreparation of ore.
Plant Designer Simulation software enables us to produce a baseline simulation & flowsheet for the selection, sizing of equipment & design of comminution circuits.
