CASE STUDY: Production Platform Project

This project was delivered for a long-standing client with whom we have worked for over 30 years. The scope required a highly customised production platform designed to operate within tight spatial constraints while meeting hygiene, safety and operational requirements.

Project Details

Project: Production platform with integrated ribbon blender

Location: Sydney, NSW

Sector: Food and beverage – powdered food ingredients

Completion Date: March 2021

Overview:

The chequer plate floor was engineered with precise fall to allow effective wash-down and drainage, with water directed to a designated drain point. Platform height was carefully calculated to achieve correct working height for operators while also accommodating downstream equipment beneath the ribbon blender. Ceiling height constraints required close coordination to maximise usable space without compromising safety or functionality.

To maintain clear access below the platform, the support structure was designed with a minimal number of legs while still achieving the required structural integrity and load capacity. Safety rollover gates were incorporated to allow pallets of raw materials to be safely transferred onto the platform during production.

Outcome / Results:

The platform delivered a safe, hygienic and efficient production environment tailored to the client’s specific constraints. The successful execution of this project has led to ongoing repeat orders for additional production equipment.
