Machinery installations

Complete installation of machinery and drive systems

From positioning to commissioning, carried out safely and in accordance with specifications.

The impact of a perfectly installed machine

A machine is only as good as the way it is installed. Minor deviations in alignment, foundation or positioning can have major consequences: accelerated wear, energy loss, malfunctions and unplanned downtime. In practice, many problems arise during installation but only become apparent once the machine is in operation. This leads to higher maintenance costs, productivity losses and uncertainty regarding performance. EMHA prevents these problems at source. By paying close attention to the foundation, alignment and system behaviour right from the start, we ensure that installations do what they are supposed to do – reliably, efficiently and sustainably.

Solutions

How we help you

Complete installation of rotating equipment

From positioning to alignment and commissioning, carried out as a fully integrated process.

Laser alignment

Precise alignment of drive trains for optimum performance and minimal wear.

Foundation & epoxy grouting

Stable and durable foundations with high-quality Chockfast® grouting for maximum reliability.

3D measurements and alignment

Installation of drivetrains

Installation and alignment of engines, shafts, couplings, and propulsion systems.

Propeller shaft installations

Precision installation of propeller shafts and propulsion for efficiency and lifespan.

Installation of auxiliary equipment

Pumps, compressors, and generators correctly integrated into the overall system.

Turnkey installation projects

From preparation to commissioning and sea trials - one point of contact.

An integrated approach for maximum performance

Installation is not a standalone step, but an interplay of disciplines. This is precisely where EMHA makes the difference. We combine diagnostics, engineering, 3D measurement technology, alignment, and grouting into one integrated approach. This allows us to maintain control over the entire process and prevent transfer errors between parties. Our teams are assembled per project, with specialists perfectly suited to the technical challenge. From foundation preparation to laser alignment and commissioning: everything is tailored to the specific situation. The result is an installation that performs as intended from day one – with minimal corrections afterwards.

Deployable worldwide for reliable installations

Whether in shipping, industry, offshore, or civil engineering: every environment places different demands on installation and execution. EMHA has extensive experience in diverse sectors and works on complex installations worldwide. We handle both new construction and the replacement and optimization of existing systems. From propulsion systems and generators to pumps and compressors: we ensure precise placement, a stable foundation, and optimal alignment. By acting quickly and implementing adjustments immediately, we create installations that are not only technically sound but also function practically within your operation.

Additional expertise: stronger together

In addition to the installation itself, EMHA also provides support during the preparatory and supplementary phases of projects. This includes feasibility studies, concept and detailed engineering, and support during design processes, where we actively contribute ideas regarding issues such as vibration, noise, and foundations.

Our services extend beyond just installation: we also handle modifications to machine frames, structures, and piping, and can deploy on-site machining where necessary to achieve perfect fit and alignment. Furthermore, we offer support with inspections, troubleshooting, and the optimization of existing installations.

For clients seeking maximum peace of mind, we deliver complete turnkey projects – including testing, commissioning, and support during operational phases such as sea trials. Thanks to this broad range of capabilities, we act not only as the executing party but as a technical partner throughout the entire lifecycle of an installation.

What else you want to know about Machinery Installations

These include shipping, offshore, industry, energy, and civil engineering, among others.

We work according to the strictest standards. For example, we install piston compressors for hydrogen installations in accordance with the API-RP-686 standard, both in the petrochemical industry and at companies focused on sustainable energy generation and storage.

We install machines with high-quality products, such as Chockfast epoxy grouts and Meclev leveling foundation elements. These products meet the highest standards for the industry.

Because small deviations in alignment or foundation have a major impact on wear, energy consumption, and reliability.

Control over performance, well-founded decisions, and the prevention of damage, downtime, and unnecessary costs.
