Mastering machinery trains for industrial applications

Industrial operations across basic industries, refineries and petrochemical plants, as well as the industrial gases sector, rely on highly engineered machinery trains to ensure efficient and reliable production. These integrated systems combine compressors, electric motors, steam or gas turbine drives, and expanders into precisely coordinated assemblies tailored to specific process requirements. Designing such machinery trains requires in-depth understanding of system interactions and operating conditions. By carefully matching all components, optimized performance, high availability, and efficient energy utilization can be achieved.

Mastering machinery trains through modular expertise

Building on decades of turbomachinery expertise, Everllence has translated this complexity into a portfolio of modular construction kits. Each kit is designed around proven technologies and standardized building blocks, while remaining flexible enough to accommodate application-specific demands. This modular approach enables turnkey delivery, compact layouts, and reliable performance – whether for offshore installations, large-scale industrial plants, or emerging energy applications. The result: machinery trains that are faster to deploy, easier to integrate, and engineered to perform over their entire lifecycle.

Our modular construction kits

NAMAX machinery train for nitric acid production

NAMAX is Everllence’s modular machinery train for nitric acid production, designed for plant capacities from 400 to over 3,000 mtpd. Developed for modern dual-pressure processes, the NAMAX concept increases power density and enables higher rotational speeds – directly improving overall process efficiency. By integrating the AR-MAX1 air compressor into the train, all core components operate at a common speed, eliminating the need for an intermediate gearbox. Combined with robust fixed-casing compressor designs, a reduced footprint, and flexible base frame configurations, NAMAX delivers low CAPEX and OPEX as well as simplified transport, installation, and commissioning. With hundreds of references worldwide, NAMAX is a proven, future-ready solution for nitric acid plants.

Turbomachinery trains FAQs

Turbomachinery trains are engineered assemblies of rotating equipment – such as compressors, turbines, expanders, and drive systems – which perform high-efficiency mechanical work in continuous industrial processes. These machinery trains are extremely common in sectors such as chemical manufacturing, iron and steel production, and fertilizer synthesis (e. g., ammonia and urea), where they are used in critical operations such as gas compression, heat recovery, and energy transfer. Designed for reliability and efficiency, turbomachinery trains from Everllence are tailored to meet demanding process conditions such as high pressure, extreme temperatures, and corrosive environments.
Configuring turbomachinery as a train offers significant enhancements in performance, reliability, and operational efficiency. Turbo trains allow direct mechanical coupling between turbines and compressors, minimizing energy losses and improving overall system efficiency. They also reduce the need for multiple standalone units, saving valuable space in plant layouts and simplifying installation. A single turbomachinery train centralizes control, monitoring, and maintenance – enhancing responsiveness, simplifying automation, and increasing uptime.
