Last Updated: August 2007

 

Cane Handling:

· Hydraulically operated Cane Truck Dumping (tipping) systems. Over 500 sold worldwide. Tradename:

HydroLift™. The standard in the industry!

 

· Mobile Hydraulic Cane Wagon Unloading Station for unloading bulk sugarcane at the mill yard. The

Model 3000M station will accommodate any type of cane wagon or other vehicle that has been fitted for

lateral unloading. Tradename: Hilo™.

 

· Cane Grabs (Grapples). Unsurpassed durability and quality since 1960. Tradename: CaneMaster™.

 

· Drive systems for Wash Tables or Cane Carriers (conveyors). Over 350 systems sold worldwide. The

standard in the industry. Tradename: AutoCane®.

 

· Air Supported Belt Conveyors eliminates costly idlers / rollers, reduces energy requirements, increases

belt life, and lowers noise levels. Contact us to learn more about this revolutionary technique in

transporting whole stalk or billeted sugarcane.

 

 

Cane Preparation Equipment:

· Elimination extraneous material from sugarcane billets with Dense Medium Separation. Proven

technology! Unsurpassed performance.

 

· Heavy-Duty Vertical Cane Shredder, hammermill type. Up to 550 TCH and a Preparation of Cane Index

greater than 90%, guaranteed. More the 25 installations worldwide. Tradename: Maxtor™

 

· Dry Cane Cleaning and Rock Remover System. The ultimate solution for removing rocks and cleaning

billets or whole stalk cane without using water.

 

 

Cane Milling Equipment:

· Top Roll Flotation Gages in visual (v), electronic (e) or visual / electronic (v / e) versions. Essential yet

economical. Guaranteed to increase your extraction and reduce your mill maintenance or your money

back! The standard in the industry since 1980. Tradename: MillRight

 

· Ram (piston) seals. Tough and abrasion resistant but flexible! Tradename: TigerGut®

 

· Rubber Belted or Rake style Intermediate Carriers.

 

· Genuine Edwards Mill Hydraulics Systems (consisting of accumulators and a power unit as a

minimum, plus the following optional accessories: Top Roll Flotation Gages (TRFGs), Gage Panel or

Four-Valve Manifolds, interconnecting piping and TigerGut® Seals and a Display Panel for e.TRFGs or

v/e.TRFGs). The standard in the industry since 1950. Revolutionized the industry when it was introduced

and continuously improved ever since. Often imitated but never duplicated! Insist on Edwards!

Tradename: HydroForce®.

 

· Hydraulic or mechanical Mill Drives, Helper Drives and Pressure Feeder Drives. Tradename:

MillMaster®.

 

· Centralized Lubrication Systems. Providing lubricant to the right place at the right time with the right

amount in the right way. Robust, modular and user-friendly.

 

· Donnelley Chute Level Transmitters. Produces a stepped 4 to 20mA isolated output signal proportional

to the level of sugarcane in the Donnelley chute (in 10% increments). Tradename: Opti-Feeder Mark III™

 

· Flexible Couplings for sugar mills: Developed to meet the unique circumstances and demands of sugar

mills. Wire rope style flexible couplings for transmitting high torques at low speeds with varying alignment.

Tradename: STEMEX™

 

 

Sugar Processing Equipment:

· Remote Valve Actuation and Control Systems. Remote actuation of control of valves. Over 200

systems sold worldwide. Tradename: ValveMaster®.

 

· Vacuum Pan Mechanical Circulator Systems. Improves the Speed, Quality, Capacity and Performance

of vacuum pans.

 

· Energy efficient and maintenance-free Crystallizer (Horizontal & Vertical) Drives Systems.

Tradename: Magtorq™

 

· Rotary Juice Screens. With the recent trend towards better cane preparation the mixed juice entering into

the process section contains higher quantity of bagacillo particles which subsequently affects the

processing of the juice. A Rotary Juice Screen from Edwards Engineering separates the bagacillo

particles at the milling station itself, which has the twin advantages of reducing juice loading at the second

mill and avoiding downstream processing problems, such as color formation due to “tea-brewing” effect;

interference with gravity sedimentation process at the clarifier; more retention time at the clarifier for

allowing lighter particles to settle; clogging of juice strainers, pumps, piping, juice heater headers, etc.

 

· Magma & Centrifugal Pumps. Robust, dependable and economical are just a few of the advantages.

 

 

Maintenance, Repair and Operation (MRO) Equipment:

 

· “In-Place”, unattended Automated Roll-Arcing System for the hard facing of Sugar Mill Rolls.

Tradename: MAVREX™

 

· AC Motor Conductive MicroFiber Shaft Grounding Rings. Preventing VFD / AC drive induced electrical damage to motor bearings. Tradename: AEGIS SGR®.
