Industrial Equipment Installation: Millimetric Precision and Operational Safety in the Field

DRS Makina provides top-level engineering services in the field logistics, heavy lifting operations, and mechanical installation of critical process equipment (heat exchangers, reactors, compressors, turbines, and separators) that form the heart of industrial facilities. The process of positioning the manufactured or procured heavy-tonnage equipment within complex facility architectures is managed within the framework of strict occupational health and safety (OHS) rules and international installation procedures.

Heavy Lifting and Logistics Coordination Following the delivery of high-volume and heavy-tonnage process equipment to the construction site via special carrier trailer systems, the most critical stage, crane operations, begins. Adhering strictly to the lifting plans prepared in advance by our field engineers, massive heat exchanger groups or modular units are safely lifted to their installation elevation using high-capacity cranes.

Millimetric Alignment and Mechanical Installation at High Elevations The positioning of the equipment onto steel construction platforms (gratings) or reinforced concrete foundations is executed with millimetric tolerances. The leveling and anchoring processes of the equipment are meticulously carried out by our expert installation teams. Particularly in the installation of process units with multiple inlet-outlet nozzles, the flawless alignment of heavy industrial flanges with each other and the bolt tightening (torqueing) processes are completed with great precision.

Full System Integration and Commissioning Preparation Parallel heat exchanger trains, cooling towers, or process vessels whose field installation is completed are integrated into the facility’s main piping network and instrumentation systems with a leak-tightness guarantee. Upon completion of all mechanical connections, the system is made fully ready for cold tests and the commissioning phase.
