Turnkey Plating & Surface Finishing Process Line Engineering
Medlin Engineering offers both individual equipment specifications and full turnkey execution. For larger scope engagements, turnkey management is required. When multiple systems must work together, accountability for how they perform together has to sit in one place.
What We Deliver
Custom-designed metal and plastic plating systems built for your specific process requirements. Medlin Engineering leads the full scope from facility layout and equipment specification through partner fabrication, installation, integration, startup, and commissioning. You get a working system, not just a design.
Why Work With Medlin Engineering for Plating
Most engineering firms understand plating in theory. Few have run the process, sized the tanks, sourced the chemistry, and stood on the shop floor during startup. When you work with Medlin Engineering, you work directly with Ted. No project managers between you and the person doing the work, and no layers translating your problem into someone else's plan.
Capabilities
1. Process Line Design & Layout
Full plating line design from tank sequence to floor plan. Every layout is built around your actual process flow and space, not a generic template.
2. Tank and Chemistry System Integration
Tank sizing based on work package dimensions, with pumps, filtration, heating, cooling, and plumbing engineered to fit within that footprint and perform. Chemistry compatibility is built into every material and component selection.
3. Materials & Corrosion-Resistant Design
Material selection built for bath compatibility and long-term durability. Polypropylene, stainless steel, UHMW, and specialty coatings specified based on chemistry, not guesswork.
4. Control Systems & Electrical Integration
Control panel, drive, and sensor integration for reliable process automation. Level sensing, motor control, and electrical systems engineered to work with your process, not just installed alongside it.
5. Hoist and Automation Coordination
Hoist selection and cycle timing engineered to match your actual process requirements. Systems built to move work through the line correctly, without creating bottlenecks or safety issues.
6. Equipment Specification & Vendor Coordination
Equipment specified to your process requirements, with vendor sourcing, coordination, and negotiation of commercial terms handled start to finish. One point of contact manages procurement and pricing, so nothing falls through the cracks between suppliers.
7. Environmental & Wastewater Compliance
Equipment and system design verified against your discharge and environmental requirements. You provide the regulatory requirements; we ensure the correct equipment from the right supplier meets them.
8. Installation, Integration & Startup Commissioning
Medlin Engineering remains involved through installation, system integration, startup, and commissioning to ensure the complete system performs as engineered before handoff.
9. Failure Analysis & Process Troubleshooting
Root cause investigation for plating line failures, process breakdowns, and quality escapes. Corrective action built to fix the actual problem, not just the symptoms.
