Manufacturing Equipment & Systems

Custom equipment and complete process systems manufactured in the USA for complex industrial applications, from ASME U stamp-certified pressure vessels and modular skids to specialty engineered equipment. Combining in-house engineering and manufacturing teams for over 90 years, Artisan offers a seamless solution for design, development, and production, ensuring optimized designs, shorter lead times, and superior quality.

Overview

Manufacturing Equipment and Systems for Engineered Capital Projects

Industrial equipment manufacturing becomes more complex when process performance, pressure boundary requirements, material selection, fabrication tolerances, and code compliance all have to be resolved within the same project. Artisan brings those disciplines together through an integrated engineering and manufacturing model, allowing custom equipment and complete systems to move seamlessly from early technical definition through fabrication, inspection, testing, and final assembly.

Artisan unites chemical, process, mechanical, and manufacturing engineering with in-house welding, machining, testing, and assembly. Within its 120,000 sq. ft. facility in Stoughton, Massachusetts, the team manufactures engineered-to-order equipment ranging from custom ASME pressure vessels and large separation columns to Rototherm® evaporators, rotary valves, skidded chemical process systems, and complex automated process equipment.

This integrated model gives customers a single technical partner for equipment that must meet demanding process conditions, dimensional requirements, material specifications, code obligations, and installation needs. Whether the starting point is a datasheet, a sketch, a process challenge, or a full system requirement, Artisan can develop and manufacture equipment built around the application, with one team managing the path from design through production to reduce handoffs, improve continuity, and protect quality.

Key Benefits

Integrated engineering and manufacturing under one roof

Artisan’s in-house teams connect process knowledge, mechanical design, fabrication, machining, and quality assurance, helping move custom equipment projects from concept through production with greater continuity, shorter project communication paths, and stronger control over design intent.

Code-compliant equipment for demanding services

Artisan manufactures custom ASME pressure vessels and specialty equipment with experience across ASME U stamp-certified fabrication, ASME Section VIII Div. 1, ASME B31.3, PED, Canadian CRN, China Special Manufacturing License, GOST-R Russia, Malaysian DOSH, Korea KGS, MOL-Japan, and other applicable standards.

Broad fabrication and machining capability

Large CNC machining, welding, waterjet cutting, Wire E.D.M., post-weld heat treatment, hydrotesting, passivation, polishing, and precision inspection allow Artisan to manufacture complex equipment, large parts, and skid-mounted systems.

Applications

Custom ASME pressure vessels, alloy tanks and separation columns

From pressure vessels and reactors to separation columns and custom process equipment, each build is engineered to align mechanical integrity, material selection, thermal performance, and code compliance with the realities of the operating environment.

Skid-mounted chemical process systems

Complete and modular systems are fabricated, assembled, and factory-checked before shipment, giving customers greater control over quality, installation planning, and deployment of commercial-scale process equipment.

Specialty rotating equipment and precision components

Artisan produces industrial rotary valves, pressure vessels, and precision rotating equipment for specialized separation applications, including decades of joint development with Honeywell UOP for Sorbexâ„¢ processes such as Parexâ„¢, Molexâ„¢, and MX Sorbexâ„¢.

Contract machining and fabrication projects

For projects that require experienced industrial manufacturing capacity, Artisan’s facility can also handle contract machining and fabrication work, including large, tight-tolerance CNC milling and lathe work, waterjet cutting for stainless steel, carbon steel, titanium, aluminum, and non-metallic parts, and precision Wire E.D.M. cutting.

Artisan’s Manufacturing Capabilities. Your Application.

Every manufacturing path is shaped by the realities of the application, from pressure rating, process temperature, and material selection to code compliance, dimensional limits, weld procedures, surface finish, inspection needs, and installation constraints. Artisan’s team evaluates these factors together to define the right approach to engineering, fabrication, machining, and quality.

Artisan team members

The same facility also brings practical manufacturing depth to complex builds, with a 40-ton high-bay crane for handling large components and more than 140 ASME Section IX and PED welding procedures across manual, semi-automatic, orbital, and fully automated robotic processes.

Have a Manufacturing Equipment or System Application to Discuss?

Whether the starting point is a datasheet, sketch, or complex process requirement, Artisan can assess the operating conditions, material needs, code obligations, inspection expectations, fabrication constraints, and installation considerations that shape the build. The team can then define a manufacturing path aligned with the application, project scope, and long-term operating goals, from early engineering review through manufacturing and delivery.
