In-line systems - Import export

inear precision growing line systems for use in the production of wind towers, monopiles, pipes and more. Since 2002, we have designed, manufactured and supplied Fit Up and Growing Line Systems that optimise the production of onshore and offshore monopiles, towers, pipes, tanks and more. Key Plant growing line and automated can joining systems enable individual motorised adjustment of each axis under load, the work piece sections can be manipulated left, right, up, down (X, Y, Z axis) to join the cans together. We manufacture linear precision systems with ball screw operation for smooth precision control and hydraulic options for thin wall material. Key Plant growing line and ACJS systems reduce time & cost, increase customer productivity and gives a consistence to the fitting up and joining of cans.

ABFAD Ltd have developed the perfect solution to protect damaged and corroded Storage Tanks, a major problem in the industry. The FUELVAC® double skin lining system, Abfad’s patented solvent-free vacuum monitored lining process, bringing a new, innovative dimension to storage tank repairs and tank corrosion protection. Cost and time savings over traditional methods are significant and tank downtime is greatly reduced, which means that the repaired tank can be brought back into full use in a very short timescale; whereas traditional methods of storage tank maintenance can leave the tank owner without the use of a very valuable asset for an extended period of time. The double skin tank is then connected to remote vacuum monitoring applications that check the integrity of the installation every second of every day, ensuring piece of mind and a totally professional approach to tank storage maintenance. Fuelvac® can be installed in above or below ground tanks of any size.

Here at Abfad Limited we have over 10 years’ knowledge and experience lining and repairing storage tanks of all different shapes and sizes, above ground, underground, some in good condition, some in bad condition. One thing is clear from our time in this industry, corrosion is the main enemy of the storage tank and shortens its life span considerably. Solvent free single skin tank lining to provide an internal single skin within the storage tank which encapsulates the steel and prevents corrosion taking place within the tank. Fuelavc® double skin tank lining system with class 1 vacuum pressure leak detection monitoring for above and below ground tanks of any size. Fuelvac® provides two levels of protection within storage tanks, it protects the steel from corrosion due to the protective solvent free coatings and the unique nature of the vacuum system, and also provides 24/7 leak detection monitoring of the tank. Speed of installation means that tank down-times are greatly minimised.

We can reconfigure an entire production line or any manufacturing process and do good or better modifications of an existing system.

From fullly automated production lines to simple poke yoke devices for quality assurance, we have the knowledge and experience to meet your specific needs and requirements. No project is too big or too small for our engineers. We build all machines in-house. APL has been improving production processes for manufacturing companies for 30 years.

The Patol Linear Heat Detection Cable (LHDC) is designed to provide early detection of fire and overheating in circumstances where other forms of detection would not be viable, either due to inability to sustain the environment requirements or through prohibitive costs. Patol also offers a Line Type Heat Detector system.
