Detailed design for a maintenance and reliability project on an existing linerboard machine, including improvements for the existing tail cutter system to reduce damage to felts and improve overall machine runnability.
This project included front-end engineering and project development support for a brownfield non-wood ag-based pulping and molding facility. The facility was designed to provide a finished product capacity of 15,000 bone-dry metric tons per year...
Front end engineering study to evaluate the feasibility of installing pressure screening systems on existing stock approach loops at an ag-based pulp thermoforming facility.
Detailed design for a maintenance and reliability project on an existing linerboard machine that included the installation of a new dust collection system to address issues with glue and sensor reliability caused by the presence of excess dust.
Root cause analysis for a significant vibration issue affecting a group of dryer cans on an existing paper machine, including both onsite and offsite analysis.
Detailed design and structural dynamics engineering evaluation to analyze an existing paper machine dryer section for an unbalance issue at an existing facility.
Front end engineering, detailed design, and Project Management and Construction Oversight services for a $5MM TIC warehouse expansion project at a 25 TPD ag-based pulp thermoforming facility.
This effort included the front-end engineering, detailed design, and construction oversight to convert all machine DC motors and drives to AC power. The PIVs were also replaced with AC motors.
FEL2 engineering and cost estimating for a containerboard machine rebuild project including forming, press, dryer, and vacuum system upgrades to improve sheet quality, efficiency, and production.
