The The Stuart McElrath Company provided the engineering and project management for the installation of a new thermal reclamation system for Armstrong Mold Corporation of East Syracuse, NY. Armstrong replaced their existing 1/3 tph thermal reclaimer with a new Gudgeon 1.5 tph unit complete with shakeout system, bulk storage and sand distribution system.

SMC proved engineering services that included new general assembly drawings with numerous cross-sections and elevations which were used for bidding and installation purposes. Detail drawings were provided for new steel structures and modifications to existing equipment; such as their existing plaster silo that was converted for use with foundry shakeout sand.

SMC also provided bid specifications for installation contractors and equipment suppliers. When the time came, SMC also supplied installation and startup supervision for the project.
