Services
A component can be specified, cut and finished in one place.
01
Components machined from any drawing, in Steelplast's own workshop — a cost-effective route to parts traditionally produced in steel.
02
A dedicated cut-to-size division handles sheet and rod, with a while-you-wait service for smaller orders at the Springs premises.
03
Support with material selection and component design, drawing on established calculation methods.
04
Low-friction linings that promote the flow of cohesive bulk materials, mechanically fastened to steel, stainless steel, aluminium and concrete.
Bulk materials handled
Flex-Line® is a flow liner rather than an impact liner, so sharp or large rock should be avoided.
Flow problems
A low-friction surface that promotes the flow of cohesive bulk materials, and can permit shallower hopper-wall angles in new designs.

Erratic flow
02
Flooding at feeder interfaces
03
Blockages and rat-holing
04
Mechanical and cohesive arching
05
