“We contacted Trantec to supply an FIBC hanging frame and a screw conveyor as we needed to integrate a new station into our existing three station blending system. The team at Trantec worked with us to deliver the project within the required time frame despite the difficulties everyone has faced during the Covid-19 lockdown. The additional station allows us to be far more flexible when optimising our blends.”

Trantec’s Solution

Trantec were tasked with producing a repeat of the ‘’bulk bag’’ FIBC stations already on site. It was essential to maintain commonality with elements of the current system to ease operator and maintenance training. We quickly understood the customer requirements but suggested a ‘’split frame’’ design to make assembly on-site easier with minimum lifting equipment. The mainframe was fabricated in two sections- upper and lower, which made the installation possible using existing lifting equipment.

Case Study 1002 – Cleaning Products

As we continue to absorb the impact of COVID-19 we at Trantec Solids Handling Limited have continually supported the industry. As the country’s needs increase, we are being asked to supply systems regularly. We have been turning around equipment quickly to help all industries in this challenging time. Over recent months Trantec Solids Handling Limited has helped various blue-chip companies and smaller businesses with their manufacturing capability. Our equipment is key to adding numerous ingredients to multiple processes. Trantec is a crucial feature of the ability to quickly add a diverse range of materials to countless everyday products.

Cleaning Products

We contacted Trantec to supply a Sack tip station for product supply on a multi head filling system for production of powder cleaning products. Output up to 45bottles per min at 500g . The team at Trantec worked with us to deliver the project within the required time frame despite the difficulties everyone has faced during the Covid-19 lockdown. The sack tip station allows us to fill the packing line with far less operator actions.

Trantec’s Solution

Trantec were tasked to produce a system to allow us to empty 25kg sacks at floor level and convey up to the bottle filler feeding the packing line. We quickly understood the customer requirements but suggested a sack tip design to enable them to operate at floor level with minimum climbing . The system had to fit in a small room with little area to work in but the Trantec design made the installation a lot easier.

Case Study 1003 – Ceramics

Trantec Solids Handling Limited was contacted by Custom Controls Limited who are a leading control company in South Wales to supply a materials handling system for a worldwide international Ceramics company with a plant in South Wales. Trantec Solids Handling Limited has been supplying powder handling systems to all industries for over twenty years and helped various blue-chip companies and smaller businesses with their manufacturing capability.

”We contacted Trantec to supply a hopper and a screw conveyor with a two-way diverter valve arrangement as we needed to upgrade the old existing system into a tablet Press at a multinational company in South Wales. Trantec worked with us to deliver the project within the time frame despite the difficulties everyone has faced during the Covid-19 lockdown.”

Trantec’s Solution

Trantec supplied a customised system to mate with the Ceramics companies existing rigid bin system, we quickly understood the customer requirements and suggested a two way diverter valve  design to enable them to fill the tablet press hoppers, the material being used was a difficult one with poor flowing characteristics which required agitation and vibration.
