Portable Machining

Ensure leak-free performance at startup!

Altex performs portable machining at site and in our shop to ensure proper flange flatness and surface finish which is critical to leak-free hydrotest and start-up!

Is this necessary?

Yes, in our opinion.

Heat exchanger have a hard life and anything can happen during their lifespan. Checking and machining flange surfaces in combination with controlled bolting essentially guarantees leak-free performance.
