Heat Exchangers for Manufacturing & Machinery

Heat exchangers usage in manufacturing

In manufacturing, temperature control makes or breaks the day. If cooling slips, machines overheat. If heating isn’t stable, you lose batches. And every extra kilowatt wasted hits your margins.

That’s why so many plants lean on Tranter. Our plate heat exchangers are efficient and tough enough for real industrial duty. They keep your lines running and products consistent, and your energy bills under control.

HVAC-manufactoring

Reliable performance, lower operating costs

In manufacturing, every heat exchanger variable shows up in uptime, energy bills, product quality, and crowded spaces.

With Tranter, you get equipment built to keep your processes steady and efficient.

  • Engineered to your actual loads, flows, and duty cycles, so control stays tight and installs go right.
  • Recover heat from condensers, exhaust, or process loops to reduce fuel spend and emissions.
  • Channel geometries optimized for dirty, heavy-cycling conditions and keeping capacity stable.
  • Modular frames and flexible connections drop into skids, retrofits, and plant rooms without rework.
  • Fast sizing/spec help, install tweaks, and ongoing diagnostics from people who know heat exchangers.

How Tranter’s solutions make a difference in manufacturing

Ensure product quality

Heat-sensitive lines suffer when temperatures drift. Our exchangers hold tight approach temperatures, keeping batches consistent and scrap down.

Internal-workload

Designed to perform

We design to your load profile, water quality, and cleaning cycles, so performance always holds up to the spec sheet — at minimum.

Optimized flow

High pressure drop robs pumps and budgets. We restore headroom with flow paths that keep ΔP in check while maintaining the thermal approach you need.

Budgetary-constraints

Maintenance made easy

Opening, cleaning, and reassembly shouldn’t take a day. Quick-open frames and clear access points cut service time and operator burden.

Applications across Manufacturing & Machinery

Automotive industry

From stamping presses to paint lines, automotive plants run hot and heavy. Tranter heat exchangers help you manage coolant, process water, and lube oil reliably with designs that meet the industry’s strict standards.

Hydraulics and lube oil systems

Hydraulic circuits and lube oil systems demand stable cooling without adding pressure drop.

Our plate exchangers are flexible enough for small or high flow duties, and in turbomachinery we can even supply complete lube oil cooler skids for compressors and rotating equipment.

Metal work

Pressing, cutting, and shaping metals puts serious strain on both equipment and lubrication systems. Tranter exchangers provide precise thermal control for heating and cooling metals, while keeping lube oil stable and safe.


Compressor manufacturing

Compressors are the heartbeat of many industrial systems, from ORC to refrigeration. Tranter exchangers keep them healthy by cooling and condensing process fluids while stabilizing lube oil. The result: longer compressor life and more reliable performance.

Diesel engines

Engines can’t afford to run too hot. Our compact plate-and-frame exchangers control jacket water and coolant temperatures directly on the engine, preventing overheating and ensuring reliable, long-term performance.
