Glenro has been working with manufacturers since 1958 to face process heating challenges together by welcoming them to our pilot testing facilities. Glenro commits its personnel and its facilities to developing sensible and useful process information that creatively satisfies new market and product manufacturing demands.
Testing a process and products with Glenro comes with great benefit. Equipment designed and purchased as a result of product testing in our facilities can be supported with a performance guarantee in accordance with the specifications that define the expected performance of the new equipment installation. We consider this approach a win-win situation because we can rest assured that our equipment will perform after conducting and witnessing successful trial results and our customers can be confident that they have minimized the risk of their investment. The results of product testing with Glenro provide the required information to successfully scale the pilot line performance to fit the production criteria our customers specify.
Engineering Services
Glenro, Inc. is pleased to offer the following engineering and research services to assist customers in product and process development.
Feasibility Check
Quickly demonstrate potential benefits of heat transfer equipment or to determine process feasibility and whether additional testing is warranted. No fees are associated with these quick studies.
Process Investigation
Study a process in depth involving investigation of various factors to determine optimum process conditions. Copies of test data and summarizing report will be submitted. Minimum Duration: 1 Day
Engineering Development
Investigate and develop new methods of heat processing or to custom design specialized equipment requiring knowledge of heat transfer technology.
Minimum Duration: 1 Day
In-Plant Testing
Conduct a test in the customer’s plant under supervision of Glenro personnel. Per Diem rates apply, in addition to reasonable travel and living expenses.
