Modular Skid Design for Motor Test Setup​

The Way We executed the Project

Client: Major Industrial Equipment Manufacturer
Industry: Industrial Products
Services: Modular Skid Design, Structural Engineering, FEA Analysis, Piping, Fabrication Drawings

Project Background

The client required a modular test setup for motors of various sizes to streamline their testing process. The objective was to design a versatile skid system that could accommodate motors of different capacities while ensuring structural stability and efficiency during testing.

 

Our Scope

Our scope involved designing a modular skid system that could be easily adjusted based on the motor size.

Key Tasks Included

  • Modular Design: Creating a flexible skid structure to fit various motor sizes.
  • Structural Engineering: Ensuring the skid’s load-bearing capacity was sufficient to handle different motor weights.
  • Piping and Supports: Designing appropriate routing for cooling and operational pipes, including supports and fixtures.
  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Conducting FEA to evaluate the stress distribution and structural integrity of the test setup.
  • Manufacturing Drawings: Preparation of detailed fabrication and assembly drawings for production.

What Value Added

We deployed our mechanical engineering experts to develop a modular skid capable of adjusting to varying motor sizes. FEA was conducted to ensure the skid’s structural integrity, reducing potential risks during testing. The modular design provided the client with a versatile and scalable solution, enabling the testing of motors with different specifications in a single setup.
