Modernization Measures

• On-site assessment and inventory review
• Detailed examination and inspection
• Development of a strategy/concept for meaningful modernization
• Supply of replacement equipment and replacement of obsolete components
• Installation- and commissioning monitoring (warranty coverage for new components supplied by GKT)

Selective maintenance and condition improvement measures offer an effective way of modernizing individual machines and systems that are getting on in years.

Individual apparatuses – either from our in-house production or from other manufacturers – are professionally refurbished and reinstalled according to the „old-meets-new“ principle.

If a specific conversion or retrofit is required, GKT delivers tailored solutions by replacing key components with modern equipment and integrating additional systems.

All modifications are engineered for seamless integration, ensuring minimal downtime and reliable operation.

The reasons for unsatisfactory operation are often to be found in specific bottlenecks in the process. Through a comprehensive analysis of the overall operating conditions, GKT uncovers the problem areas and eliminates them with targeted measures.

Individual measures are necessary depending on the initial situation. Compared to a new system, however, the investment is still significantly smaller.

• Bundle replacement – retrofitting

End-of-life bundles are replaced with new bundles.

The system conditions – including the plate dimensions and evaporation surface – remain the same.

With this simple but effective conversion of existing falling film evaporators, your system is modernized in the shortest possible downtimes and at the lowest possible cost.

• Bundle replacement – debottlenecking

Problem areas in the process are examined and eliminated in a targeted manner, but with more extensive measures.

End-of-life bundles are replaced and also the evaporation surface is redimensioned.
