Pressure Vessel Fabrication
Pressure vessel fabrication involves manufacturing enclosed equipment designed to contain fluids at pressures different from ambient conditions. It is used in chemical processing, energy production, compressed air systems, and industrial plants where structural integrity, code compliance, and documented testing are essential.

Manufacturing overview
Pressure vessel fabrication includes plate forming, shell rolling, head fabrication, welding, nozzle installation, and mechanical assembly.
Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, and selected alloy materials compatible with the process environment.
Typical applications include compressed air receivers, process vessels, separators, reactors, and pressure-containing industrial equipment.
Critical requirements include design pressure, design temperature, corrosion allowance, material selection, joint efficiency, and applicable design codes.
Relevant standards may include ASME BPVC Section VIII or applicable EN 13445 requirements, depending on the project and jurisdiction.
Buyers should provide approved design documentation, drawings, design conditions, material specifications, inspection requirements, and quantities.
Fabrication may require qualified welding procedures, certified personnel, material traceability, nondestructive examination, pressure testing, and regulatory conformity assessment.
