While engineering a new system to load gypsum stucco for ceiling tile manufactured at a sister plant, the United States Gypsum Company plant in Sperry, Iowa, faced the challenge of screening gypsum materials at 30 tph in a low-headroom area. The raw material contained on-size and oversize gypsum particles, paper fuzz, blasting cord pieces and tramp metals from upstream mining and milling operations...
