Your experience with our team is important. Our team of experienced engineers, fabricators, and E&I professionals is laser-focused on providing an unmatched customer experience, responding promptly to questions and requests. We design custom-engineered skid systems for any type of market or application.

Your custom skid system is fabricated in our Wisconsin based facility by experienced fabrication and E&I technicians. Before arriving at your dock door, systems are thoroughly inspected and tested in our in-house test cell to ensure any issues are detected and remedied here, not during start-up.
GLOBAL CHEMICAL MANUFACTURER
From design to install, to ongoing support, Crane’s OptiFlow™ team has a time-tested formula for success. Our experienced engineers will work closely with you to define your specific needs and develop a custom skid system that delivers exceptional results.
Custom Skid Systems are designed using Autodesk® Inventor® to create a virtual model, allowing equipment interfaces and fits to be checked prior to assembly. Special attention on component location ensures proper functionality, maximum serviceability, and reduced operator risk.
Leveraging over 80 years of distribution experience and component know-how, we carefully size and select the right mix of equipment for optimal performance. After a bill of materials is developed, we work with our manufacturer partners to source at below market prices.
Experienced technicians and engineers collaborate to recommend potential improvements to increase serviceability or function. This yields superior workmanship and ensures all systems are built to the correct specifications. All control panels are built in our UL listed panel shop.
Your plant specifications determine the components our team selects, or we choose from leading technology providers like Allen Bradley, ABB, and Phoenix Contact. PLCs and Operator Interfaces are programmed with a focus on stable process control, ease of use, and reliability.
Before your custom skid systems are shipped out to you, our engineers thoroughly inspect and test them. System trials are completed in-house in our test cell with the subject chemicals or water to ensure proper functionality.
Our clients visit us for final tests and inspections prior to shipping.
A comprehensive manual is created that includes a bill of materials, 3D mechanical and electrical drawings, P&IDs, equipment datasheets, and start-up/operating instructions. All are in an electronic format and utilize screenshots and photos to enhance key topics.
Proper installation and start-up are vital to the long-term operation of the system. Our experienced mechanical and/or controls personnel help install and start up your Optiflow™ skid systems upon request.
We fully back and support our systems by providing lifecycle services such as troubleshooting, maintenance, reconditioning, and asset tracking.
