In 2022, a leading spray drying manufacturer needed a new spray drying system installed. The U.S.-based company provides toll manufacturing and custom spray drying for the food and non-food industries.
When looking for a mechanical contractor for the system installation, our client was unable to find a qualified partner that could meet their schedule and deliver the specified product.
They eventually reached out to R&T to discuss the job scope and see if our capabilities could support the project. After reviewing the client’s blueprints and verifying field measurements on the required steel work, we confirmed our team had the resources to manage the project from start to finish.
Installation of the new spray drying system included:
- Setting all structural steel work
- Installing safety railing and steps
- Setting the spray drying silo and baghouse
- Installing all processing duct work
R&T was able to quickly resolve issues that arose during the installation phase. We successfully reworked some of the stainless steel food grade processing duct work, and reworked structural steel parts that were not properly fabricated by the original manufacturer.
The project was completed on time and within budget. Our client was very satisfied with the outcome, and we’re in the process of installing a new blending line at their facility.
