Destec has designed, developed and built special purpose machines for the oil, petrochemical
and nuclear industries.
This was a natural progression from the in-house designed
and built on-site portable machines that have been used by our own technicians over
the last 25 years.
Destec was awarded a design and build contract for Mobil for
a machine to remove the regenerator head at Mobil, Coryton. The work involved machining
9.4m of groove, 25mm wide x 6mm deep, in a cross pattern. Destec designed and built
a 4 head hydraulically driven milling machine to carry out the work, that was completed
on schedule in nine weeks.
The machine design and operation were instrumental to
the fastest turnaround for a unit of that size achieved by Mobil.
Our teams of engineers
backed-up by the most modern design and manufacturing equipment, are always available
for discussions on special machining problems.
