Reject Anode Conveyor
During the production of carbon anodes it is sometimes necessary to remove some newly formed anodes from the production line. The Reject Anode Conveyor removes up to nine of these newly formed hot and fragile anodes from the production process without damaging the anodes.View Project »
Dust Collection Systems
Comtec has designed and commissioned a wide variety of Dust Collection Systems from specification of complete systems to modifications to existing systems to improve performance or add extra capacity. We have also redesigned existing bag houses with completely new plenum sections with "Top Loading" dust collection bags and removable blast tubes for ease of bag changing. The explosion venting was also upgraded to contained rupture disc technology.View Project »
Power and Free Conveyor Systems
Power and Free Conveyor Systems are widely used in anode transport applications where queuing is required at various locations along the conveyor route. Comtec has extensive experience in designing layouts of these P&F systems from supporting requirements to transfers between systems.View Project »

Cast House Cooling Water System Design
Comtec has experience in the design of several Cast House Cooling Water SystemsView Project »
Reduction Cell Pre-Heating System
Comtec were responsible for the design of a Diesel Fired Cell PreHeating System to prepare reduction cells for return to operation.View Project »
Cathode Casting and Sealing Process
Comtec were responsible for the redesign of an existing Cathode Sealing Process to ensure that the process requirements were met.View Project »
Electric Ladle PreHeating System
Comtec were responsible for the design of electric Ladle Preheating Systems to preheat ladles containing molten cast iron. These systems were retro-fitted to an existing gas powered system to reduce power use and obtain closer temperature control over the ladles.View Project »
