Cleaner air, safer plants: the Kice guide to dust control success

Effective dust control is essential for more than just meeting regulations. It is the key to protecting product quality, maximizing uptime, maintaining worker safety, and building a reputation for reliability.

CFM Foundry: 50 years of precision iron castings

When it comes to manufacturing industrial process equipment, every component matters. That’s why Kice relies on the proven expertise of CFM Foundry, our trusted subsidiary, for high-quality iron castings.

SmartMills™ 3.0 MES: Reinventing mill efficiency

Today’s milling operations still rely on paper logs, spreadsheets, or a patchwork of disconnected software tools. As a result, valuable production data becomes scattered and production insights get lost, making it difficult to maintain traceability or uncover inefficiencies.

Maximizing milling performance with air-assist systems and custom plenums

Hammermill operations face common challenges: material blockage, inconsistent particle size, excessive heat generation, and high energy consumption. These inefficiencies not only reduce productivity, but also lead to equipment wear and dust explosion hazards.

What to do after a dust hazard analysis (DHA)

Does your facility handle combustible powders? Per NFPA guidelines, you must complete a dust hazard analysis. A DHA identifies potential dust explosion hazards inside a facility, but the real challenge is addressing them efficiently and effectively.

Industries that benefit from central vacs

“What is a central vacuum system? And how does it benefit my operation?” These are just two of the many questions we get about central vacuum systems here at Kice Industries. The Kice industrial central vacuum is a centralized solution for several industries.

Kice prepares to break ground on facility dedicated to engineering

Kice Industries has announced construction plans for a new facility at its campus in Park City, Kansas. The building will occupy 8,000 square feet and serve as a hub for Kice Engineering projects.

How to Choose the Right Dust Control Equipment Systems

Some dust problems are solved best by cyclones, and others by filters. The trick is to use each type for the dust collection jobs they do best. Let’s break down these two major dust control systems.

Keeping airlocks operating safely and efficiently in pneumatic and dust control systems

While rotary airlocks, which operate at low speeds, aren’t overly complicated equipment and normally require minimal maintenance, they nevertheless are very critical for the efficient operation of a pneumatic conveying system.

Avoid the risks of not having a proper air control system in place

With the number of products that require processing, separation and conveying through plants and factories, air control systems provide a unique solution for a multitude of goods and materials.
