We were involved in the product development and delivery projects of the IMACON 100 On-Stream Analyzer. The Analyzer is a cutting-edge solution designed for elemental analysis in mineral beneficiation circuits.

Starting point and goals:

  • There were guidelines and objectives for product development and necessary changes.
  • Based on previous experience on working with us, the customer wanted to use our expertise and multidisciplinary skills to find optimal solutions in a cost-effective solution, according to quality standards.
  • The customer wanted a turnkey service, i.e. a one-stop supplier for product development and delivery.

Results and benefits:

  • We implemented the development and production of the IMACON 100 On-Stream Analyzer.
  • We carried out the mechanical, electrical and automation design required for future modifications to the device.
  • We produced the approved device according to the customer’s quality standards.
  • Our experts provided the safety design and risk mapping for the equipment.
  • We also supplied IMA with all technical documentation related to the equipment and its operation.

We have years of experience working with the experts at Comatec, so also with this product we trusted their professionalism and ability to manage even the most demanding product development project at a level that meets our quality standards. Once again, our cooperation went very smoothly. – Vice President, Ville Hakala, IMA Engineering Ltd Oy
