In conjunction with our marine, structural, and industrial staff and consulting partners; we can provide a full portfolio of engineering services to complete any project.

Lafarge North America, Superior, WI Terminal

AMI provided Design Team Project Management including all structural, mechanical and electrical engineering for a new dust collector system at a cement unloading and distribution facility. AMI’s responsibilities included designing modifications to resolve OEM equipment issues experienced at this and other installations taking place concurrent with the project. AMI also provided the Construction Management and startup assistance during the construction and commissioning phases of the project.

Design Software

At AMI Consulting Engineers, our mechanical projects are modeled in the leading 2D and 3D design software. This allows for accurate and efficient transformation from conceptual design to finished process piping, ventilation, combustion and material handling projects.
