Industrial Louvers
Industrial louvers are one of the many products that Economy Metal Works commonly produces for customers in the construction, petrochemical, power generation and other industries. At EMW we take pride in our flexibility and diversification in both services and products, so heavy-duty, industrial louvers are just one of the many variations in the type of louver that we are happy to produce. From prototype to production, EMW is equipped to deliver the custom manufactured heavy-duty louvers that your application demands.
What Are Heavy Duty Louvers?
Our heavy-duty louvers are reinforced versions of standard louvers. Like everything we do at EMW, our heavy-duty, industrial louvers are custom manufactured to the customer’s requirements, so the degree of strength and reinforcement is based upon your needs and specifications.
A louver is an assembly of slanted blades (also known as plates or fins) designed to permit a flow of air while deflecting things as objects, dirt, or wind-driven water. Heavy-duty louvers are reinforced for tough duty, where high velocities of air are expected. They might have to stand up to flying objects, or be able to absorb occasional impacts from heavy equipment passing by.
We can manufacture heavy-duty louvers, like all of our products, in mild carbon steel, 304 & 316 stainless steel, galvanized and aluminum (3000, 5000 and 6000 series aluminum). A variety of finishing options/a> are available. In addition, EMW is highly experienced in manufacturing decorative louvers, gable louvers, stamped louvers and custom louvers.
Our Heavy Duty Louvers Are Formed to Fit Your Requirements
Our heavy duty, industrial louvers are created through a metal forming process (not through a metal extrusion process), which gives us the flexibility required to manufacture a unique louver product that fits the requirements of each customer’s application. EMW’s metal forming process also allows for the manufacture of a heavy-duty louver that meets close tolerances.
EMW is a full service metal fabricator offering a wide range of capabilities in the manufacture of industrial louvers and a vast range of other products. These capabilities include:
- Rolling up to 1/4" x 8' long
- CAD/CAM design and programming
- Water jet precision cutting with a 12'x12' working envelope and dual cutting heads
- Saw, torch, and plasma cutting
- CNC precision shearing up to 12 ft. in 1/4" carbon steel, 3/8" aluminum and 3/16" stainless steel
- 12' press brakes up to 350 tons with CNC back gauging
- MIG and TIG welding of all alloys (GMAW, FCAW, GTAW certified welders and welding to ASME Sec. IX & AWS D1.1 code)
- CNC punching up to 1/4" plate
We have finishing options (powder coat or wet paint) available when needed. Although we are not paint experts by trade or claim to be, we do offer coating/application services through outside sources. All coating will be at the customer's request and specification. To ensure that our customers receive the proper coatings for their applications, we require the customer's approval on their specifications prior to coating. EMW does not make coating recommendations for any application. Essentially, you tell us the kind of coating or finish you need or prefer and we will make sure that coating or finish is applied properly.
Whether you have CAD drawings ready or just verbal instructions to provide, you can be confident that EMW has the experience, know-how and determination to follow-through on your project and manufacture custom industrial louvers that will fit your application.
