Macro Sizing
We operate a wide fleet of crushing and screening equipment, capable of sizing an even wider variety of materials. "Macro" sizing (product sizes ranging from 2' to 1/4") equipment includes the following:
- Jaw Crushers
- Cone Crushers
- Roll Crushers
- Hammer Mills
- Stationary Screeners
- Mechanical Screeners
- Riddles
- Grizzlies
Fine Sizing
Our fine sizing capabilities (product sizes ranging from 1/4" to 100 mesh) can be paired with our macro sizing so that we can handle almost any feedstock size. Our "fine sizing" equipment includes:
- Ball Mills
- Rod Mills
- Cage Mills
- Vibratory and Mechanical Screeners
Micro Sizing
We consider "Micro Sizing" to be products that are, as a rule, too small to be sized using mechanical separation. Typically this will be products with a top particle size smaller than 100 mesh. Our primary micro sizing systems consist of Raymond Mills or air classified hammer mills. We routinely size products to 200 mesh or 325 mesh, and have had successes with even smaller sizes. Our micro sizing experience extends into various minerals, sands, ores, and coal and carbon products.
Specialty Sizing
From time to time we will handle materials that have special requirements during the sizing process. Examples are flammable materials, materials that oxidize quickly, or materials that have specific requirements regarding particle weight, morphology, fines generation, or average particle size.
To facilitate these needs, we routinely blanket products with Nitrogen or Argon inerted atmospheres, we add hand-picking steps to the sizing process, or we work with our customers to develop new or modified crushing techniques.

Drying
We operate both directly and indirectly heated rotary kiln dryers, capable of efficiently driving moisture off of materials with as much as 60% water weight. We have successfully dried materials as diverse as coal, coke, ferro-alloys, fume, aggregate, sand, and various minerals and ores.
In certain circumstances, we have also dried materials using solar energy, convection, fluidized bed dryers, and some cases performed simultaneous drying and milling solutions.

Blending
Our blending capabilities extend from processes as simple as manually blending materials on a batch basis, through utilizing pug mills or ribbon blenders, and into the realm of creating sophisticated "continuous run" blends of materials utilizing a series of blending hoppers with finitely adjustable volumetric feeders, all tied together by PLC.
Agglomerating and Briquetting
With more than 3 decades of briquetting, agglomerating, pelletizing, and extruding experience, we work with our customers to best determine material blends, appropriate binders, and optimum processes to meet their agglomeration needs.
In the past, we have created briquettes of both raw materials and by-products for the plastic, alloy, steel, aluminum, energy, and agriculture industries.

Packaging
We routinely package various products for our customers. Our packaging capabilities include filling FIBCs, open top or spout top small and multiwall bags, buckets, gaylords, totes, and drums.
For each product and project, we are more than happy to provide packaging on cost pass-through basis, or utilize customer provided packaging, depending on customer requirements.
