Access Gantry

Our portable gantry can be adjusted to suit the diameter of the spray dryer. It is an adjustable length of 1.5m – 14m and we have one technician situated at each end of the gantry, working at 180 degrees at a time to ensure an efficient test.

The gantry is tested annually and is constantly verified by trained technicians. Its lightweight aluminum design provides quick assembly and easy entry into the vessel, with a robust and strong construction (capable to support 475kg).

Our Method

A complete spray dryer test including repairs can be carried out within 24/48 hours, ensuring that your downtime is minimised and you are quickly back into production.*

Dependant on the construction of the spray dryer, the required access methods are installed. (Gantry, ladders, ropes)

The technicians inspect 100% of the vessel surface and any defects found are marked from a given datum ready for repair.

Our fully qualified welders perform the welding repairs if required. (client may use on-site or local welders)

Where repairs have been performed a re-inspection takes place to check the integrity and also the heat affected zone is verified.

Access equipment is removed and the spray dryer is handed back for CIP and production.

*(extra time may be required dependant on repair works to be performed)
