Dexon Mechanical Solutions Successfully Expands Manufacturing Facility

Dexon Mechanical Solutions (DMS) has successfully expanded production lines at a motor oil manufacturing facility.  

With demand for their products surging, a multi-national oil & gas company needed to rapidly expand to fulfill their orders. They requested DMS to add 18 new lines within a tight time-frame.  

𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝘆 𝗗𝗠𝗦  

Installing these lines presented a unique set of challenges that required meticulous planning and execution.  

The DMS team tackled five major hurdles:  

1. 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: The new lines needed to integrate with the facility’s existing infrastructure to ensure smooth operation, inspection, and maintenance.  

1. 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: The project demanded a diverse skill set, including civil engineering, quality control, in-house NDT services, and highly skilled mechanical engineers to perfect the design.  

1. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀: Engineers operated in tight spaces and atop risers; the installation required a strict adherence to safety protocols and a heavy dose of patience.  

1. 𝗧𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀: Production schedules allowed only 1-2 hours of downtime per line; every move had to be coordinated to avoid costly delays.  

1. 𝗟𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲-𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: With 18 lines to install, planning and efficiency were critical to meet deadlines without compromising quality.  

Thanks to the experienced team and a structured plan, the project was completed on time and exceeded the client’s expectations.

Beyond installation, DMS brought value-added improvements to the facility. Engineers suggested and implemented two practical solutions to improve ease of use:  

1. 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Traditionally, opening the pipelines required the removal of multiple heavy bolts, leading to delays in cleaning and inspections. DMS introduced a user-friendly hatch closure, allowing operators to access the line quickly and effortlessly.  

1. 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Parts of the new pipeline were installed beneath the ground, effectively controlling heat exposure and solving a major operational pain point. This adjustment increases energy efficiency and will prolong the equipment’s lifespan.
