Heatshield and Windshield Manufacturing

Introduction

In a world that increasingly favours globalisation and outsourcing, there’s a significant advantage to keeping manufacturing close to home. At Locker Heatshielding Ltd, we take immense pride in being world leaders in heat and wind shield fabrication. Specialising in applications such as flare-deck heat shielding and protection for personnel and sensitive equipment from radiated heat and high winds on oil and gas platforms, we are committed to in-house design and manufacturing that enhances the quality of our products while showcasing our expertise and attention to detail.

Detailed Design Using Advanced Software

At Locker Heatshielding Ltd, the journey from concept to creation begins with meticulous design, utilising advanced software like SolidWorks and AutoCAD. Our dedicated design team employs these powerful tools to create detailed and precise engineering drawings. This enables us to visualize, simulate, and refine our heat and wind shielding solutions before they even reach the fabrication stage. With the ability to analyze stress points, optimise material usage, and ensure compatibility with existing equipment, our design process significantly enhances our product's efficiency and effectiveness. The integration of cutting-edge software allows us to deliver tailored solutions that not only meet but exceed client expectations.

The Heart of Our Operations: Welding

Welding is at the core of what we do at Locker Heatshielding Ltd. It’s not merely a technical skill; it’s an intricate craft that requires a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of materials. Our team comprises highly skilled and certified welders who take immense pride in their work. Each welding project we undertake is a chance for our experts to demonstrate their proficiency, ensuring that every joint in our heat and wind shields is structurally sound and built to withstand the toughest environmental conditions.

By keeping our welding operations in-house, we maintain control over quality, timing, and flexibility. This enables us to swiftly adapt to our clients' needs, making adjustments as necessary without compromising the reliability and performance that our brand is known for.

Fabrication: Where Design Becomes Reality

Our fabrication processes at Locker Heatshielding Ltd are planned to bring our designs to life, particularly in the realm of heat and wind shielding solutions. From cutting, shaping and bending to welding and assembly, every phase of our fabrication workflow is executed with precision and expertise. Our state-of-the-art equipment and skilled personnel permit us to offer customised solutions tailored to the specific needs of flare-deck applications and protective measures for personnel and sensitive equipment.

By managing fabrication in-house, we enhance efficiency and streamline production timelines, ensuring that every shield is crafted to meet the rigorous demands of the oil and gas industry. Our team is actively engaged in the innovation process, constantly looking for ways to improve our offerings and deliver the highest quality products.

Finishing Touches: The Importance of Quality Control

Once welding and fabrication are complete, our focus shifts to metal finishing, a crucial step that enhances not only functionality but also durability. Whether it’s protective coating or surface treatments, we ensure that each product undergoes rigorous quality control measures.

At Locker Heatshielding Ltd, we take pride in our thorough inspection routines at every stage of production. This commitment to quality guarantees that our heat and wind shields perform to the highest standards, providing our clients with the assurance and reliability they expect for protecting personnel and sensitive equipment in challenging environments.
