Flotation cells
KEM does work as an OEM for a number of clients. Pictured here is a truckload of flotation cells destined for the Kensington Gold project in Alaska. KEM fabricated six of these units and six smaller units within a very tight schedule to meet the delivery requirements for the client.



 

Westmark Shaft
Knelson senior fabricators use a unique in-house procedure to repair a chronically failing drive shaft. After multiple failed attempts by several other shops, Knelson was contracted to engineer a lasting solution. The repair strategy included cutting the shaft into two pieces, machining weld preparations and welding a controlled pre and post heating. Continuous cleaning of the weld slag allowed the welder to apply multiple passes without stopping, further enhancing temperature control and weld strength. The shaft has been in service, crack free for two years  as of November 2007.

Tank
This thickener / clarifier was manufactured in 316 stainless steel as part of an environmental treatment system for an oil refinery. As part of the overall scope, KEM was also responsible for the API 650 design for the vessel.



Cascade Mixing Tank
Working closely with our client, a mechanical contractor, KEM engineered a floor and lower shell replacement. By doing the majority of the fitting and welding in house, the contractor was able to minimize the shutdown of the Alberta pulp mills mixing tank.
