Examples of Our Application Experience

SAND AND CRUSHER PLANT

The plant located in Jackson, MS processes natural sand, washing it before converting it into different industrial-grade sand products, while larger gravels are sent to the crusher plant for further processing. Amtech understood the process and provided a turnkey solution for both the sand plant and crusher plant, including VFD and Soft Starter engineered systems, Motor Control Center (MCC) panels, PLC & HMI, and other instrumentation to ensure smooth operation, energy savings, operational ease, and improved safety for personnel and equipment.

QUARRY AUTOMATION

The quarry located in Hollywood, AL includes primary, secondary, tertiary, and sand plants producing different grades of materials and industrial-grade sand. Amtech designed a complete automation system including an Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) panel, Motor Control Center (MCC) panels, VFD and Soft Starter engineered systems to improve process control, maximize production, ensure consistent product quality, and reduce operational costs.
