Our Customers

Overview

Cement production and aggregate handling generate substantial volumes of airborne dust throughout the entire process—from raw material extraction and crushing to conveying, mixing, and bagging. Common sources include limestone, silica, clinker, fly ash, and sand, all of which produce fine, abrasive particulates. These materials are moved at high volumes and velocities, often in harsh outdoor environments, making dust control essential for worker safety, equipment longevity, and regulatory compliance.

Challenges & Considerations

High Dust Load and Abrasiveness: Materials like clinker and crushed stone produce dense, abrasive dust that wears down ductwork, filters, and housings.

Outdoor and Harsh Conditions: Systems must perform reliably in extreme temperatures, humidity, and exposure to wind, rain, and corrosive materials.

Material Transfer Points: Conveyors, hoppers, and bagging stations are prone to dust escape, especially during loading and unloading.

Environmental Compliance: Facilities must meet stringent air quality standards and dust emission limits set by local and federal agencies.

Heavy Duty Construction

Incorporating a full welded construction made with satin coated galvanized sheet metal and grade 5 zinc coated hardware, our equipment is made to last. We have dust collectors thriving in all environments – from the Pogo Mine in Alaska to the Fekola Mine in Mali Africa.

Optional Construction features includes stainless steel construction, custom coatings applications, and heavy duty support stands for seismic zone 4 application.

Source Capture

Transfer points—such as crushers, screens, conveyors, hoppers, and bagging stations—are some of the most active dust-generating zones in cement and aggregate operations. 
Our systems are engineered to capture dust directly at these sources before it can disperse into the facility or atmosphere. We design custom hoods, enclosures, and pickup points that match the geometry and flow characteristics of each transfer location, ensuring efficient capture without disrupting material handling. High-velocity ducting and strategically placed dampers help maintain consistent airflow, even across multiple collection points.

Minimize Waste

Increase your facility’s yield by reducing waste through capturing airborne agricultural product and recirculating back into operations. Screw conveyors are an effective option for transporting material off the hopper discharge and back into your processing equipment.
