We thank you for allowing us this opportunity to introduce our company and our capabilities to yourselves and we hope that you will find the following details to be of interest.
CKIT is a materials handling consulting and engineering company which is based in Bedfordview, Gauteng, Republic of South Africa. Our expertise is specific to the bulk materials handling field and includes detailed design, feasibility studies, costing, problem solving, forensic engineering, conceptual design, layouts of plants and facilities and dynamic simulation modelling of processes.
If our work with plant simulation is of specific interest we are able to model an entire materials handling facility allowing the optimum sizing of associated equipment. We are quite unique in this area and have executed a number of related studies in the past.
To assist with the development of studies to a definative estimate stage we have developed a comprehensive cost model (spreadsheet) which includes operating and maintenance cost modeling.
Other major areas of speciality include machine design specificaly in the area of stackers and associated scraper reclaimers. We have also an extended knowledge of dump stacking and spreading machines.
Finally we are extensively involved in conveyor design and in the pioneering of revolutionary
