Project Summary
Bennco Engineering was requested to conduct Reverse Engineering and Refurbishment of a 38-year-old lump chute (hood) at their fabrication facility at Tom Price. The project included design, structural integrity and fabrication capabilities.

Key Outcomes
Due to its age and structural degeneration, the project required considerably reverse engineering considerations and associated application of current technologies, materials and operational applications. Bennco Engineering worked closely with its preferred vendor in the design process commissioning bespoke designed liners and shelves compatible with the internal dimensions of the chute and its workplace environmental conditions. The bespoke liners required specified accurate dimensions enabling a seamless design/fabrication interface thus mitigating the risk of error and cost/time imposts.
