A team of four Gibbons engineers will be continuing our
commitment to international service by jetting off to the USA in April for a
week-long humidification
project.
Our client, a leading chemical company based in Japan, is a
global producer of silicon wafers (semiconductors) and has 14 manufacturing
locations across the globe, including our destination in Vancouver, Washington.
We previously carried out a job in Scotland for the same customer, and they
were so delighted with our work they awarded us the prestigious Vancouver
project.
This project involves removing compressed-air spray nozzles
and replacing them with three differently-sized humidifier systems which
contain 38 atomisers between them. It’s a substantial job – one of the air
handling units is the largest we have completed and has 18 atomisers,
necessitating the use of two control panels in tandem.
All systems were constructed at our Tollesbury workshop
before being disassembled and shipped to Vancouver in late December. The cargo
arrived safely at the Port of Tacoma on America’s north-west coast, but due to
industrial action it remained there for over a month. However, we’ve now had
confirmation that the container has been loaded onto a truck and is on its way
to site where it will be met by our engineers when they arrive in mid-April.
Look out for a full report from Gibbons Humidification once
this exciting project has been completed.
