Energy Composites Corporation announced the completion of a set of rigorous proving runs using its portable large-bore Magnum Venus Plastech Computerized Horizontal Helical Filament Winder. The winder, which has the capacity to fabricate structures 40 feet in diameter and 43 feet in length one piece construction, provides ECC Corrosion’s Field Service Operations with the capability to build very large composite structures in place on a customer’s job site, eliminating the logistical issue to fabricate and ship in sections for reassembly on site. The successful completion of the proving runs allows for the commissioning of the portable field winder for on-site use.

“Commissioning our new field service winder is an important step,” noted Sam Fairchild, Energy Composites’ CEO. “The MVP winder adds to our ability to deliver large on-site tanks, stacks and ducts where size and transport costs would be an impediment to a competitive and responsive offer. This winder allows us to eliminate almost all freight costs associated with these oversized tanks, which will give us a substantial competitive edge on procurements for composite structures for large mining/refining or flue gas desulfurization projects. Delivering very large seamless tanks also gives us an advantage as well, since a seamless tank will definitely outperform one assembled in sections.”

ECC fabricated four midsized vessels ranging in diameter from 16 to 20 feet, completing the production proving run. Two of the four vessels were industrial tanks, while two were oversized ducts for a flue gas desulfurization installation. The proving runs allowed ECC to perfect its production process design for onsite work and provided additional opportunity to complete safety and operational training for the Company’s associates.

Jamie Mancl, ECC’s founder and President, added that “The Magnum Venus winder worked perfectly. We fabricated the four vessels using Owens Corning ECR grade glass, and found that the combination worked smoothly. We were able to set up the winder quickly, and break it down without a hitch. We look forward to its next application onsite.”

Jim Thomas, ECC Corrosion’s National Sales Manager, said, “Looking forward, we believe this winder will help us meet our ambitious 2010 sales goals. It is our third portable winder, and we look forward to its next use for our mining, chemical, water and power generation clients.”
