Roben, Mfg, Inc. is a leading provider of custom critical process storage tank fabrication services, specializing in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of tailor-made storage solutions for mission-critical applications in various industries. With our expertise, state-of-the-art facilities, and commitment to reliability and performance, we deliver custom critical process storage tanks that meet the exacting requirements of our clients and ensure seamless operation of vital processes.
How do you ensure the reliability of critical process storage tanks?
We ensure the reliability of critical process storage tanks through several strategies
- Robust design with appropriate safety factors
- Use of high-quality, certified materials
- Redundant systems for critical components
- Comprehensive testing and validation procedures
- Integration of advanced monitoring and control systems
- Detailed preventive maintenance plans
- Thorough documentation and traceability
Our goal is to minimize the risk of failures or unplanned downtime in critical processes.
Can you design tanks for ultra-high purity applications?
Yes, we specialize in designing tanks for ultra-high purity applications. This involves
- Selection of high-purity materials (e.g., 316L stainless steel, high-performance alloys)
- Electropolished surfaces to minimize product adhesion and contamination
- Orbital welding techniques for high-integrity joints
- Designed for complete drainability and cleanability
- Integration of high-purity sampling systems
- Use of sanitary fittings and connections
- Capability for Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilize-in-Place (SIP) operations
We work closely with clients to meet specific purity requirements for their critical processes.
What types of process control features can be integrated into critical process tanks?
We can integrate a wide range of process control features into critical process tanks, including
- Temperature control systems (heating/cooling jackets, internal coils)
- Pressure monitoring and control systems
- Level measurement and control (e.g., radar, ultrasonic, load cells)
- pH and conductivity sensors
- Dissolved oxygen (DO) sensors
- Agitation systems with variable speed control
- Flow meters and control valves
- Data logging and historian systems
- Integration with plant-wide control systems (DCS, SCADA)
The specific features are tailored to the requirements of each critical process.
How do you handle projects requiring compliance with pharmaceutical or biotechnology regulations?
For projects requiring compliance with pharmaceutical or biotechnology regulations, we follow a comprehensive approach
- Design in accordance with cGMP guidelines and ASME BPE standards
- Use of FDA-compliant materials and components
- Implementation of design review processes
- Provision of detailed documentation for regulatory submissions
- Support for validation activities (IQ/OQ/PQ)
- Adherence to GAMP 5 for computerized systems
- Traceability of materials and fabrication processes
- Provision of certificates of conformance and material certificates
We have extensive experience working within regulated environments and can support clients through all stages of regulatory compliance.
What are the typical lead times for custom critical process storage tank fabrication?
Lead times for custom critical process storage tanks can vary depending on the complexity, size, and specific requirements. Typical lead times range from 16 to 52 weeks, broken down as follows
- Process analysis and conceptual design: 4-8 weeks
- Detailed engineering and approval: 4-8 weeks
- Material procurement: 6-16 weeks
- Fabrication and assembly: 8-24 weeks
- Testing and documentation: 2-4 weeks
For projects with urgent timelines, we can explore options for expedited fabrication. We work closely with our clients to establish realistic project schedules and keep them informed of progress throughout the fabrication process.
