Rebuilt VFM Mixer : The high intensity mixer shown below was sent to Reliance needing some major repair and upgrades to make it usable for production.

A) The unit was sent without a discharge chute, mixer jacket, and automatic lid
lift.

B) After changing out the bearings, seals, belts, and rebuilding the interior of the bowl, Reliance added a new lid lifting mechanism equipped with a pneumatic cylinder.

C) New flow bars, jacket, insulation, and stainless steel cladding was added to the bowl exterior to allow for the flow of hot oil or cooling medium. The motor was rewound upon customers request to ensure a longer lasting motor.

D) A new discharge chute was also made with pneumatic assist to open and close the plug. The unit was then shipped to a Masterbatch Manufacturer.

Rebuilt Horizontal Cooler :
A) As shown below, a cooler of a different manufacturer was sent to Reliance for rebuilding.

B) We stripped the old jacket that had been rusting due to a bad water supply.

C) We laid out and installed new flow bars so that the channel of cooling median would be more turbulent and more efficient. We replaced the old Carbon
Steel jacket with a Stainless Steel jacket to counter the rusting caused by the water supply. Due to the new jacket and flow bars, the Cooler was rated for a higher PSI allowing cooling media to flow faster throughout the Cooler which in turn reduced the cooling cycle time.
