The importance of the piping in achieving high-level process performance is obvious.
At Fedegari, the piping, as a whole, is unquestionably one of the most distinctive features of each
machine. In custom-made machines, however, this sub-system becomes even more critical: each machine is
a “one-of-a-kind” unit and, as such, only benefits to a very small extent from optimization as is the
case with mass-produced machines.
Fedegari’s originality and flexibility set the foundations for devising a manufacturing model that
enables building systems with very high-end characteristics. This result was achieved by working
simultaneously on several fronts: from design to development of standardized assemblies to the use
of specific components, very often manufactured in-house.
In engineering, programs for the CAD work-station have been fine-tuned by using standard modules
for specific design areas and by exclusively restricting redesign to parts of the system never
previously built. The use of standardized assemblies ensures that some parts of the piping are
always made in the same way.
The use of specific components also allows devising or selecting products ensuring excellent
performance and higher overall system reliability.
The piping manufactured by Fedegari also stands out for lack of crevices (a factor which could
compromise fluid sterility), for the exclusive use of sanitary-grade components, for the extremely
straight-forward construction and simple maintenance. Each piping is entirely made of AISI 316L
(DIN 1.4435) stainless steel.
All pipings are in fact assembled by using components and techniques usually used to manufacture
sterile fluid loops.
