Specialised Mixing Solutions provides expertise and independent evaluation in the field of mixing technology. With 30 years experience in the design, manufacture and commissioning of mixers, we offer a range of services including:
PLANT OPTIMISATION EVALUATION
Review of existing mixer installations and current work practise and comparing them to the current best practice and innovation, we identify bottlenecks and oppertunities to improve or rectify under-performing installations. Our commitment is to deliver a cost effective solution to meet your process requirements.
TENDER PREPARATION
Preparation of tender documents ensuring complete physical data process requirements are included. As part of this service, we undertake detailed discussions with the end user to ensure correct operating parameters are understood and specified. We also evaluate existing mixer performance to eliminate incorrect mixer selection.
TENDER EVALUATION
We can evaluate tenders submitted and establish and objective summary of agitator performance including process and mechanical design. In addition, we review specific features such as operating cost as a result of high efficiency hydrofoil technology and mechanical reliability in realtion to spare parts consumption, availability and costing.
WARRANTY CLAIMS
We offer assistance in resolving warranty disputes and facilitating measures to remedy the mixer installations.
