Upgrade and Expansion

Universal Dynamics specializes in plant upgrades and expansions, with an emphasis on instrumentation, process control, mechanical engineering and power systems. Our experience translates into improved plant economics, superior product quality, improved environmental compliance and enhanced workplace safety.

Implementing upgrades to an operating plant is fundamentally different than building a plant from a green field site. We understand the importance of minimum disruption to plant production, careful planning to design around constraints of existing plant conditions, and blending the upgrade into existing plant practices to ease acceptance of the upgrade to plant personnel. We work closely with our customers to plan the changeover with minimal risk to ongoing operations.
