Project summary

ADM worked in conjunction with several other engineering and drafting parties to design and certify two feeding station upgrades at Inkerman Mill. As engineering lead for the project, ADM coordinated with all design, engineering, and drafting parties involved. ADM also provided input and assistance for Wilmar during the construction phase of the project.

Project details

In 2023, Wilmar required an upgrade for two sugar cane wagon tippler stations at Inkerman Mill. The project involved multiple design and drafting parties, and Wilmar asked ADM to lead design and certification while contributing to the following aspects of the upgrade:

  • Design and certification of the lift deck arrangement and foundations, including sections of the rail line and rail supports.
  • Design and certification of the tippler frame, foundations, and gearbox mounts.
  • Assistance with remediation of the tippler barrel and redesign of the load cell arrangement.
  • Management of various civil and structural works throughout the project.

How ADM approached the project

While working with Wilmar and other drafting and engineering companies, ADM were heavily involved with the initial designs for the concept development phase. Following this phase, ADM provided further design, drawing, and certification of the feeding station replacements. ADM delivered their wholistic engineering service by supporting Wilmar during the entire project, including the project construction phase.

The results

As project lead engineers, ADM provided support for the successful design, certification, and remediation of the two feeding stations. This support was provided at all stages of the project, and ADM can continue to offer their mechanical engineering services for the life of the equipment.
