Richmond Engineering Works (REW) began operations in May of 1996 with five (5) electrical engineers. Our first large project came in September of 1996 when we were contracted to design and build the control system for the coal yard of a new power plant in Indonesia. The scope included PLC based controls and HMI stations for more than thirty (30) conveyors, two (2) stacker reclaimers, and ancillary equipment.
In 2002, we added a mechanical engineer, our first mechanical project was the design and supply of a replacement drive system for a rotary car dumper in Wisconsin.
In 2009, we added our first structural engineer. In August of 2011, we received an order to design, supply, and manage installation of a replacement rotary car dumper in Oklahoma.
Since then, we have designed, supplied, provided installation oversight of many new machines including rotary car dumpers, train positioners and stacker reclaimers. We have supplied spare parts for all bulk material handling machines, even those designed by other companies.
To date, we have Professional Engineers (P.E.’s) in all three disciplines...structural, mechanical and electrical. Our experience, hands on practical experience, work ethic and knowledge in the bulk handling industry sets us apart. We are available 24/7 to meet all your bulk material handing needs.
We are a privately held company that is in business for the long haul. We believe the best way to accomplish this is by providing high quality products and services in a timely manner, while treating our customers with integrity and respect. Our commitment to customer service is simple...customer satisfaction.
The most important step in building long term relations with our customers is to employ excellent people with the skills and attitudes necessary to make and maintain strong bonds. We conduct business with reliance on character and truth in actions.
