Industries We Serve
Our service supports a wide range of industries, including minerals, fertilizer, mining, food, metals, waste & recycling, energy, and more, all requiring compacting, briquetting, flaking, and crushing applications. Each of these sectors benefits from our tailored solutions, as efficient material processing is crucial to optimizing production, reducing costs, and improving overall sustainability. Whether it’s processing raw minerals, recycling waste, or producing high-quality food or metal products, our machinery ensures consistent performance, meeting the unique demands of each industry while contributing to resource efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Sizing up results across a variety of industries
We position ourselves as a problem solver across a number of markets that drive the global economy forward. Many of the industries we serve are critical to food and nutrient supply, water treatment, energy, road safety, recycling, waste management, and additives to commonly used products. The methods we employ to process material applications range from compaction and briquetting to size reduction, crushing and flaking. We have over a half century of experience in each method, with over a century of flaking and milling experience through the Allis-Chalmers product lines.
Minerals
We build compaction and crushing machines for mining and mineral companies. Many of our customers are fertilizer producers of potash, salt, and ammonium sulfate.
Metals
We design and manufacture metal briquetting machines for iron and steel companies.
Food
We design and build flaking and shredding mills for producing breakfast cereal, table salt, soybeans, animal feed, rolled oats and more.
Waste & Recycling
We offer solutions for converting waste materials into salable granular products, through compaction, briquetting or crushing methods.
