One of the things that EPIC does to set itself apart from other industrial engineering firms is our in-house modular fabrication approach. What is a modular approach? Taking a modular approach to fabrication means building systems with more condensed layouts. They are built as mobile skids, that take up much less space than a traditionally stick built process system. Advantages to a modular approach are many, including time and cost savings.
EPIC brings capabilities for both industrial and sanitary systems to the table. We have two modular fabrication shops; one stainless steel fabrication area and another for carbon steel. This gives us the ability to appeal to large industrial clients along with large clients that require highly sanitary modules.
Our highly skilled fabrication team also provides the following services for modular projects:
- Electrical development, wiring and testing
- Control panel development, installation and testing
- Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) testing
- Green tagging and Q/A checks before system shipment
- Instrumentation installation
- Insulation
- Painting
- Pipe fitting, bending and installation
- Pressure vessel fabrication
- R-stamp & U-stamp certified
- Structural fabrication
- Tooling
- Tubing fitting, bending and installation
- Welding
For modular fabrication of sanitary systems, we also provide the following:
- Zero dead leg piping design
- Internal finish polish specification
- Slope-to-low point drain piping design
- Specification of sanitary components (valves, regulators, sample valves, pumps, tanks, etc.)
- Clean-in-place (CIP) system design
- High temperature sanitization system design
