Skid Manufacturing and Modular Systems: Turnkey “Plug-and-Play” Process Solutions

For complex production lines in the chemical, petrochemical, water treatment, food, and energy sectors, DRS Makina manufactures “Skids” (Modular Process Units) that minimize field installation time and costs. Skid systems are portable compact facilities where pumps, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, valves, instrumentation equipment, and automation panels are integrated onto a single, engineered structural steel frame.

Single-Point Design and Integration Rather than installing all process equipment individually in the field, the entire system is assembled in the controlled environment of our own factory. The DRS Makina engineering department details the P&ID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram) data received from our clients in 3D modeling software (SolidWorks) to create a layout plan with millimeter precision. Thus, piping clashes, ergonomic issues, and maintenance difficulties are completely resolved prior to production.

Advantages Provided to Your Plant by Skid Manufacturing:

  • Time Savings (“Plug-and-Play” Logic): The equipment is shipped to the field fully assembled in our factory. Only the connection of main input-output pipes and power lines is required in the field.
  • High Quality Control (FAT): All welding (TIG, orbital), piping, and mechanical installation operations are performed under ideal factory conditions. Before the system is dispatched to the field, Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), leak tightness, and hydrostatic tests are completed, and the system is certified to be in 100% working condition.
  • Compact Design and Portability: Designed to provide maximum efficiency in confined spaces, the modules can be easily relocated when a change of location within the plant is required or during capacity expansions.
  • Minimum Field Risk: Operational safety is enhanced by reducing installation and welding works in the construction site environment, where occupational safety risks are high, to zero.
