ENGINEERING & DESIGN

Thermal Design
Engineering

Our thermal design engineers perform precise thermal design, analysis and optimization to ensure efficient thermal energy transfer and optimal performance of your heat exchangers.

With expertise in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer principles, our skilled practitioners can advise on materials selection and heat exchanger configurations best suited for your specific operating conditions—to ensure efficient thermal energy transfer and optimal performance of your units. 

Our thermal design team also ensures the integrity and performance of pressure vessels and other equipment in applications where temperature changes or thermal gradients can affect their operational efficiency, reliability—and uptime. 

Mechanical Design
& Engineering

Our seasoned in-house mechanical design engineers perform expert design of all heat exchanger, pressure vessel, and equipment structural components such as shells, tubes, baffles, and headers to ensure they can withstand the mechanical stresses, pressures, and environmental conditions they will encounter during operation.

At Metalforms, we are committed to ensuring the structural integrity, durability, efficiency, and safety of your equipment for your process, to support optimal performance and reliability—and maximum uptime.

CAD/Drafting

Our CAD department consists of a versatile team of drafters with degrees in Computer-Aided Design and Mechanical Engineering.  All our drafters are cross-trained in our Quality Control department—which gives them an edge in understanding and applying non-destructive examination (NDE) requirements to all your heat exchanger, vessel, equipment, and piping projects.

Our process—including the close integration of all our engineering and fabrication teams—ensures alignment with design standards and project specifications, and that your heat exchanger and other equipment is constructed to precise specifications for optimal performance, reliability, and uptime.
