Heavy Equipment Installations
As a manufacturer, you know that your equipment is essential to your daily operations. If you’re installing new machinery or relocating equipment to a different facility, you need to do it safely and efficiently. Working with a professional industrial contractor can help you prevent some of the common mistakes that occur during these types of projects, including equipment damage, time delays, and on-site injuries.
For over two decades, CCI has offered a wide array of industrial construction services, including heavy rigging, machinery installation, structural steel erection, and industrial storage. Keep reading to learn more about the three major stages of heavy equipment installation projects, and how our team can help you every step of the way.
Planning
Any manufacturing equipment installation project should always begin with an extensive planning stage. If this is your first time installing heavy equipment, you’ll need an expert by your side to help you through the planning phase. Our team has many years of experience handling these types of projects and will ensure no details are missed. Some of the elements we can assist with include:
- Creating Safety Plans
- Developing an Equipment Commissioning Checklist
- Performing Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT)
- Storage Solutions (In the event of a project timeline change)
- Communication With Equipment Vendors
- Swiftly Handling Problems & Obstacles
- Creating an Installation Schedule
- Identifying Installation Requirements
Execution
Once planning is complete and your heavy equipment has been delivered, you’ll need a group of professionals to help you execute the installation. It’s important to note that not every heavy equipment project will have the same requirements. For example, installing a crane system is going to be vastly different from installing robotic cells in a facility.
Our team can help you monitor for safety, overcome any challenges that occur during the installation process, and prevent costly mistakes during the installation process. Over the past 20 years, our team has handled installations for single pieces of machinery as well as entire systems. Some of the equipment we can install includes CNC machines, generators, transformers, welding cells, and assembly lines.
Post-Installation
After any installation, you’ll want to inspect your equipment to make sure that it’s working properly. It’s best practice to also inspect your equipment at least once a year and have a routine maintenance plan. In addition to helping plant owners plan and execute heavy equipment installation projects, CCI also provides ongoing maintenance and emergency repair services.
Our team is well-equipped to efficiently and accurately handle all types of preventative maintenance and repair work on centrifugal compressors, conveyor systems, fans, blowers, transfer chutes, generators, and more.
