Industry Expertise Overview |
When handling abrasive, volatile or sensitive chemicals and minerals, versatile and durable chemical/mineral equipment must be used. Prater-Sterling designed its chemical/mineral machinery with these aspects in mind, assuring that the industrial chemical/mineral equipment would be efficacious and resistant. Though Prater-Sterling machines are useful across many industries, the chemical/mineral machinery uses abound. For particle reduction, Prater-Sterling lump breakers aid in reducing particles to a much smaller size and the hammer mill can produce uniform grinds. A compactor can turn scrap materials into usable product. A Prater-Sterling sifter is chemical/mineral equipment which can be used in separation. The lump breaker, hammer mill, compactor and sifter are just a few examples of how Prater-Sterling chemical/mineral machinery can be used.
For almost a century Prater-Sterling has been catering to many companies that use chemical/mineral equipment to turn out product. Borden Chemical, DuPont and DOW are just a few of the companies who utilize chemical/mineral machinery from Prater-Sterling. With suitable chemical/mineral equipment that can also be used across various industries, Prater-Sterling has a client base of over 6,000 companies. The highly-efficient and adaptable Prater-Sterling machinery has stood the test of time, serving a multitude of industries for over 80 years.
