At AITESA we offer comprehensive engineering solutions that cover all stages of a project, adapting to the specific needs of each client and industrial sector.
Our goal is to ensure maximum efficiency, safety and profitability in each installation, optimizing costs, deadlines and resources from design to commissioning.
We offer conceptual studies, extended basic engineering (FEED or FEL) and technical-economic feasibility analyses that allow our clients to make decisions based on a previous analysis before committing large investments. In these initial phases we evaluate different scenarios and process configurations, identifying the best solution from a technical, economic, energetic and environmental point of view, defining the scope that the project will require and allowing us to obtain project approval prior to execution.
Through the FEL (Front-End Loading) methodology or the development of FEED (Front End Engineering Design) packages, we pave the way for an efficient execution, minimizing changes with high impact during construction, optimizing costs and deadlines, and improving the risk profile of the project.
We perform both basic and detailed engineering, two key phases to transform an idea into an efficient and safe construction reality. During the basic engineering phase we define the main technical and operational criteria of the project, establishing the preliminary sizing of the systems and selecting the technology that best suits the needs of each client, which allows us to make investment estimates and optimize the design.
Detailed engineering deepens and broadens the information generated in basic engineering, developing construction drawings, technical specifications, data sheets, bills of materials and diagrams that will serve as a guide for construction and assembly. This stage ensures the correct coordination between disciplines (process, mechanical, electrical, control and instrumentation), reducing interferences and minimizing risks during execution.
Our process engineering division specializes in the design, modeling and optimization of industrial systems, ensuring compliance with production, quality and energy efficiency objectives. We prepare mass and energy balances, develop process flow diagrams (PFD) and piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID), and perform detailed line and equipment calculations.
In addition, we actively participate in operational troubleshooting, bottleneck analysis and revamping projects, helping to maximize the performance and availability of existing facilities.
At AITESA we approach mechanical engineering with a rigorous and detailed approach, ranging from the design of static equipment (heat exchangers, pressure vessels, boilers) to the analysis of dynamic systems and piping. We perform mechanical calculations according to international standards (ASME, EN, API, etc.), verifying structural integrity and operational safety.
We prepare construction drawings, isometrics and lists of materials that facilitate field work, and we design supports, structures and auxiliary elements that guarantee the correct operation and durability of the installations.
At AITESA we design industrial electrical systems with special attention to cable routing, distribution through boxes and multi-boxes, and programming of field equipment, guaranteeing safe, orderly and ready installations for future expansions.
We plan cable routes optimizing paths and adequately separating power and instrumentation signals to avoid interferences, with specific trays according to type and category. We carry out the complete wiring through boxes and multi-boxes, strategically placing them to reduce lengths, facilitate maintenance and comply with ATEX or IEC regulations in classified areas.
In addition, we program and parameterize intelligent enclosures and remote I/O systems, reliably integrating the signals into the customer’s DCS or PLC. This approach ensures fast assembly, reduces downtime and prepares the installation for future adaptations without major interventions.
We design control and instrumentation systems that allow monitoring and automating industrial processes with precision and safety. We prepare technical specifications of instruments, signal lists, loop diagrams and wiring layouts, integrating PLCs, DCS and SCADA systems according to the functional requirements of each plant.
Our experience ranges from the definition of the control philosophy to support in FAT/SAT testing and commissioning, achieving more efficient, flexible and easy-to-operate installations.
We apply advanced computational simulation tools to analyze and optimize the behavior of equipment and systems before manufacturing or installation. Through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) we study gas and liquid flow phenomena, heat transfer and contaminant distribution, allowing us to improve the design of heat exchangers, chimneys, combustion chambers and ventilation systems or to diagnose possible improvements required by existing equipment.
With FEM (Finite Element Method) analysis, we evaluate the structural response of components subjected to thermal and mechanical loads, verifying stresses, deformations and fatigue cycles, thus increasing safety and extending the useful life of the equipment.
