Mixing Tank Fabrication

A customer from the water treatment industry approached Swanton Welding & Machining to fabricate a mixing tank assembly. The 50,000 lbs. tank assembly was made up of many different parts and systems including rapid mix, reactor and clarifier tanks, a 16′-8″ long platform, and a 15′ high draft tube.

To fabricate these components and many other smaller parts, we used a wide variety of methods including, CNC milling, MIG welding, drilling, laser cutting, bending and tapping. All other necessary hardware was cost-effectively procured from reliable outside sources.

The mixing tank assembly, which was made from a combination of 6063-T6 aluminum, 316 stainless steel, A-36 carbon steel and schedule 80 pipe, was thoroughly inspected and delivered to Richmond, Virginia.
