Powering Global Heavy Energy Projects
The global transition and expansion of energy infrastructure require structural components built to massive scales with uncompromising precision. Whether modernizing traditional power plants, building next-generation renewable grids, or constructing advanced energy storage facilities, the demands on heavy metal fabrication have never been higher.
With 180 acres of dedicated manufacturing space and an impressive 250-ton lifting capacity, Openex Metal Fabrication is positioned as a primary contract manufacturer for global EPCs and OEM power generation companies. We regularly process extremely thick, high-strength steels to manufacture fully compliant energy structures.
Our Capabilities by Energy Sector
Wind Energy Structures
Massive plate rolling and submerged arc welding (SAW) for onshore and offshore wind tower sections, transition pieces, and precision 5-axis machining for wind turbine hubs and giant foundation flanges.
Hydropower Equipment
Extensive experience in fabricating massive, thick-walled steel components subjected to immense water pressures, including penstocks, draft tubes, and heavy turbine housings.
Gas Turbine & Thermal
Manufacturing specialized components like Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) casings, industrial boiler pressure parts, gas turbine enclosures, and massive exhaust stacks.
Advanced Energy Storage
Building the grid of the future. We fabricate leak-proof, highly pressurized vacuum chambers, thermal energy storage tanks, and heavy structural skids for massive grid batteries.
Uncompromising Code Compliance
Failures in energy infrastructure are not an option. Thatβs why we invest heavily in our in-house dimensional metrology, materials testing, and quality assurance programs. When your components hit the field, they are guaranteed to meet performance standards.
