SEFA’s Quality Control System includes verifying parts and assemblies on customer projects. The process is vital to ensure the accuracy of parts and assemblies, which is as much about the paperwork as the parts, both of which are tracked and documented throughout a project to make sure customer designs and specifications match final construction.
Read MoreIn industrial environments where processes require high energy demands, the risk of arc flash is of particular concern to electrical contractors, as the hazards of electrical work can be deadly. Project planning, employee training, use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), warning labels, and lockout/tagout procedures are all important in preventing injury.
Read MoreFor accurate and quality fabrication of process piping, our team often works with customers to facilitate the development of piping isometrics. Piping isometrics are three-dimensional drawings of pipe spools and can be created from engineering piping and instrumentation diagrams.
Read MoreWith recent breakdowns in supply chains, the job of finding replacement parts for equipment has become challenging. No longer stocked “on the shelf” and shipped in days, parts can be more expensive and can take weeks or months to arrive. Consider working with a fabricator who has the material knowledge and in-house design expertise to design and produce your ideal replacement parts, resulting in meaningful value for your operations.
Read MorePreparing for an unexpected can help ease the burden a possible disaster can bring to you and your family.
Read MoreFor industrial companies that process abrasive materials, protecting equipment from wear is an ongoing challenge. Wear Solutions is a specialized branch of fabrication having to do with the selection and installation of material linings for specific applications.
Read MoreContinuous emission monitoring systems (CEMS) measure and monitor waste gases and particulates in a plant’s emissions system. As pollution monitoring devices, CEMS help companies operate a successful facility and comply with state and federal regulations to protect air quality.
Read MoreToday’s next-generation plasma cutting technology is automated and controlled, cost-efficient, precise, and (finally!) delivers edges that require little to no finishing work. Robust software and hardware set optimum cutting parameters based on material type and thickness.
Read MoreWhen it comes to maximizing productivity and prolonging the life cycle of a manufacturing process, updating mechanical components is only half the equation. Updating the control system is just as valuable. Not only can control systems extend process life, but they can even improve reliability.
Read MoreSafety, schedule, quality, and budget. The success of a construction project rides heavily on managing these four variables. When one changes, so will others. With multiple projects and constant change, contractors demonstrate a commitment to project success by fostering a project management culture.
Read MoreA welding procedure, simply put, is a documented method for joining two pieces of metal. The procedure establishes a work process based on equipment, materials, and personnel present at the site where work will be performed. More than a set of instructions, welding procedures influence quality.
Read MoreWelding unusual and expensive materials can create a bit of anxiety. Yes, a welding procedure provides consistent parameters to follow. In the case of hard to weld materials, the welding process—from cutting to beveling to cleaning to weld passes—and how to evaluate the work is equally if not more important. Here’s how we prepared for a recent titanium welding project: 4 weeks to make 400 welds to 900 feet of pipe.
