Austline Fabrications were awarded the fabrication of 15 reclaimer buckets for the Port Kembla Coal Terminal in Wollongong, New South Wales. Read the full case study here.
SCOPE OF WORKS
Austline Fabrications were awarded the fabrication of 15 reclaimer buckets for the Port Kembla Coal Terminal in Wollongong, New South Wales. The design and fabrication required Austline to design an initial ‘jig’ to ensure consistency of build tolerance across all buckets. The tight timeframe of delivery required the universal fit as critical in the fabrication process. Throughout the fabrication process extensive MDR and ITP requirements were supplied to ensure all quality assurances and specifications were achieved.
PROJECT TIMELINE
Austline’s competitive and timely quotation enabled awarding and lodging of QA documentation and weld quality documents to proceed with the fabrication. The design and fabrication of the ‘jig’ enabled precise assembly, welding and machining of the initial bucket. The trial fit to ‘wheel’ was completed and the supply of the remaining reclaimer buckets were fabricated and delivered on time.
INNOVATION & TECHNICALITIES
The buckets were fabricated with 3CR12 Sandvik proprietary material, a high wear capacity and to AS1554 Standards for all welding and testing. In house line bore machining to +/-0.1mm on mounting pin locations was completed with precision, coupled with extensive dissimilar materials fabrication for each reclaimer bucket.
TRANSPORTATION
Austline designed, then fabricated from the initial assembly procedures and followed this process closely with essential stabilising frames to allow for easy transportation, assembly and final site installation.
SCOPE OF WORKS
Austline Fabrications was engaged to supply, manufacture and install three mounted and fully assembled pasteuriser skids as part of the Lion flavoured milk upgrade in New South Wales. In addition, Austline was awarded the fabrication of a thermaliser skid, two CIP skids and preheaters of which all were fabricated, delivered and installed to the Lion owned Wetherill Park facility.
SPECIALISED FABRICATION
All skids were fabricated in Austline’s purpose built workshop in Western Australia by experienced tradesmen to achieve the project time frame. All fabricated skids and items utilised 316L stainless steel tube and aseptic grade valves.
ENGINEERING
Austline were issued 3D model drawings and produced working/fabrication drawings for their stainless steel fabricators. This ensured the skids were complete with plate heat exchangers, Hipex shell and tube heat exchangers, high flow pumps, Balance tanks (fabricated to sanitary grade), S/S control panel supports, inline micro filtration strainers, automated mix proof aseptic valves, instrumentation, airlines, electrical conduits and 36 meters of holding tube.
DELIVERY
From receipt of drawings and equipment, the skids were delivered to site within a six week timeframe. The skids arrived fully assembled and this enabled connection on site to minimise installation and testing time at the Wetherill Park Dairy.
