First time exhibitor Guttridge Ltd will be showcasing the company۪s expertise in the area of grain and flour handling at the prestigious 23rd International Association of Operative Millers (IOAM), Middle East and Africa (MEA) district Conference and Expo which takes place in Abu Dhabi (UAE), from the 5th to 8th December 2012. With a proven ability to deliver right first time۪ solutions, even for hard to handle flours, Guttridge is a trusted partner for milling projects ranging from single pieces of equipment to fully integrated conveying systems. Experts from the newly opened MENA office in Riyadh will be joined on the stand by colleagues from the UK for the duration of the conference.

With experience that spans five decades, Guttridge has an unrivalled track record with respect to the design and delivery of materials handling solutions for grain. For flour applications this experience is complemented by modern powder testing technology that quantifies the flow characteristics of what can be cohesive, tricky to handle powders. Dedicated application engineers, state-of-the-art design capability, and an efficient in-house manufacturing suite, in combination, enable Guttridge to deliver bespoke solutions that fully meet customer requirements whether that customer is the end-user, or an engineering team delivering a substantial integrated grain handling project.

At the IAOM MEA event Guttridge will be showcasing the full range of bucket elevators, belt and screw conveyors used to meet applications across the milling industry, focusing on the heavy duty machines that reliably deliver the high throughputs required for centralised grain storage facilities. For flour handling applications cleanliness and total containment are vital and the cohesive, easily aerated nature of the material can pose a challenge. Here Guttridge will highlight their enclosed conveyor options, and the expertise offered for hopper design and in specifying screw angles that ensure consistent material flow.
