Client’s Overview
Why Macawber India was Called Upon
The Problem We Had to Solve
The two primary factors were particularly challenging for us. The first one was the high conveying capacity required, and the second was the long conveying distance. To ensure consistent, dust-free, and controlled material flow over long distances demanded a robust system engineered for minimal degradation and maximum operational uptime.
Solutions We Provided
To meet the client’s expectations, Macawber India designed a customised dense-phase pneumatic conveying system equipped with twin Macpump vessels operating in tandem. This innovative configuration enabled the system to feed two separate reception points without compromising efficiency and throughput.
System Advantages
- Higher conveying capacity due to twin Macpump tandem operation.
- Reduced filling time with simultaneous filling and conveying cycles.
- Lower compressed air consumption results in reduced operating costs.
- Capability to feed two different reception points using a single system.
- Smooth, continuous, and low-velocity dense-phase material flow.
- Reliable performance over moderately long conveying distances.
- Lower maintenance needs and reduced system downtime.
- Improved process stability with consistent feeding to the raw meal kiln.
Result Time
Through our customised conveying system, the result was an increased number of conveying cycles, higher overall capacity, and smooth and uninterrupted material transfer. The solution Macawber India provided not only met the plant’s technical requirements but also enhanced operational reliability, reduced maintenance needs, and ensured stable kiln feeding.
