Industrial Equipment manufacturing

Industrial equipment programs cover fabricated, machined and cast parts such as enclosures, frames, housings and pressure-bearing components. Start a manufacturing project with the drawings, materials, quantities and the documents the equipment requires.

Typical volumes
Single units to medium batches
Common certification
ISO 9001, ISO 3834
Documentation
EN 10204 3.1, NDT, test reports
Typical scope
Fabricated, machined, coated

Overview

Industrial equipment covers compressors, pumps, process skids, conveyors, filtration units, electrical cabinets and the many components inside them. Parts are often larger and heavier than in consumer industries, combine several processes, and may fall under pressure-equipment or explosion-protection rules depending on where the equipment is used.

Suppliers in Türkiye regularly build fabricated frames, sheet-metal enclosures, machined housings and castings for European equipment makers, often including coating and pre-assembly. Many hold welding and structural certifications relevant to industrial projects.

On Metraxio you set out size, process, material and documentation requirements; the platform assesses facility fit on those criteria and keeps unknowns visible as "Needs More Information" instead of silently excluding suppliers.

Typical parts & components

  • Sheet-metal enclosures, cabinets and panels
  • Welded skids, frames and supports
  • Machined pump and compressor housings
  • Flanges, manifolds and nozzles
  • Cast housings, impellers and covers
  • Conveyor components and guards
  • Pressure-bearing vessels and piping spools (where certified)

The processes, materials and requirements below are an editorial reference of what is typical for industrial equipment programs — not a statement about facilities in the Metraxio network.

Certifications & compliance

What buyers in this industry commonly ask suppliers for. Exact requirements depend on the program, customer and part.

Supplier certifications

  • ISO 9001 Common

    Baseline quality system.

  • ISO 3834 Common

    Welding quality for welded equipment.

  • EN 1090 Sometimes requested

    Structural steel and aluminium components.

  • ASME U Certificate Sometimes requested

    Only for ASME stamped pressure vessels.

Standards & regulations

  • EN 10204 Type 3.1 Common

    Material certificates for metallic parts.

  • CE Marking Common

    Applies to the finished equipment; suppliers support with documentation.

  • Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) Sometimes requested

    Pressure-bearing parts in the EU, depending on category.

  • ISO 2768 Common

    General tolerances on drawings.

Quality & documentation

  • Material certificates to EN 10204 3.1; 3.2 for selected pressure-bearing parts.
  • Welding procedure and welder qualifications for welded equipment.
  • Non-destructive testing (visual, dye penetrant, magnetic particle, radiography or ultrasonic) as specified.
  • Pressure or leak test reports for pressure-bearing parts.
  • Coating system and thickness reports.

Typical tolerances & surfaces

  • Machined sealing and bearing faces: typically ±0.02–0.05 mm with flatness requirements.
  • Fabricated assemblies: fabrication tolerances per drawing (often ±1–2 mm on overall dimensions).
  • Sheet-metal enclosures: typically ±0.2–0.5 mm on bends and cut-outs.
  • Sealing surfaces: commonly Ra 0.8–3.2 µm depending on gasket type.

Sourcing from Türkiye

Türkiye combines a deep contract-manufacturing base with short routes into Europe. Industrial goods move between Türkiye and the EU under the customs union, so buyers typically avoid EU import duties on qualifying parts.

  • Many European destinations can be reached by road within several days; actual transit depends on origin, destination, customs handling and cargo.
  • Common delivery terms are EXW, FCA and DAP; Metraxio keeps the agreed Incoterm attached to the quotation and order.
  • Large fabricated parts are usually shipped by full or part truckload; include packaging and lifting requirements in your project.

How Metraxio qualifies suppliers

Every request is checked against each facility's structured profile before any supplier is invited.

  • Hard criteria: the required processes, material, part size and weight limits, and required certifications such as ISO 3834 or EN 1090.
  • Missing data is not a rejection. If a facility profile does not yet state something, the result is "Needs More Information" rather than "Not Qualified".
  • No match yet? You can continue with Managed Sourcing and the Metraxio team runs supplier discovery for you.
  • Facility identities stay anonymous during the technical assessment.

Example project

How a typical request moves through Metraxio

Stainless sheet-metal enclosures with powder-coated option — 150 pcs.

  • The buyer uploads flat patterns and assembly drawings in stainless 304 and a coated steel variant.
  • Metraxio structures the requirement: sheet metal cutting and bending, TIG welding, surface finishing, two material variants, quantity.
  • Facilities are assessed on sheet-metal, welding and finishing capability.
  • The buyer requests quotes from qualified facilities and compares price and lead time.

Frequently asked questions

Can suppliers produce pressure-bearing parts?

Some facilities are set up for pressure equipment under PED or ASME. State the applicable code and category in your requirement so it is assessed as a hard criterion.

What about equipment for explosive atmospheres?

ATEX responsibility sits with the equipment manufacturer. Component suppliers typically provide material and inspection documentation that supports your conformity assessment.

Can large parts be quoted?

Yes. Include overall dimensions and weight; the assessment considers facility size limits and handling capability.

Can coating and assembly be included?

Many suppliers deliver coated and pre-assembled units. List all steps so facilities are assessed for the full scope.
