FIG. 01 · FACTORY ENGINEERING OVERVIEW
Engineering-led design
Engineering philosophy
Engineering begins long before the first machine arrives.
A sandwich panel factory is a system of decisions — market, site, capacity, chemistry, utilities, people. Engineering is the discipline of resolving those decisions on paper, so the plant performs on the floor.
Factory performance begins with planning. Every kilowatt, every square metre, every second of cycle time is engineered before it is built — because a factory can only run as well as it was designed.
- Independent of any machinery vendor
- Documented deliverables, benchmarked decisions
- Accountable to operating performance, not purchase orders
Engineering team
Senior engineers, working the way great factories are built.
Multi-disciplinary teams — process, mechanical, electrical, civil, chemistry, controls — collaborating around the same 3D model, the same P&ID, the same schedule.
FIG. 02
Engineering studio
Cross-discipline review — process, mechanical, controls, chemistry — around one factory model.
FIG. 03
3D factory modelling
Every plant is walked through in 3D before it is built — clash-checked, load-verified, operator-reviewed.
Multi-disciplinary
Process, mechanical, electrical, civil, chemistry, controls.
Model-first
3D layout and P&ID before any drawing is issued for construction.
Peer-reviewed
Every deliverable signed off by a senior discipline lead.
Accountable
KPIs contracted at the start, measured at commissioning.
Engineering deliverables
What arrives on your desk before construction begins.
Every engagement produces the same core set of engineering documents — the artefacts a bank, a builder and an operator can each rely on.
DELIVERABLE / 02
Material Flow Diagram
End-to-end path of coils, chemistry and panels — from receiving to dispatch, sized to target capacity.
DELIVERABLE / 03
Process Engineering
PFD, mass and heat balance, reaction chemistry and cure kinetics engineered around the panel recipe.
DELIVERABLE / 04
Equipment Selection Report
Technical specifications and comparative evaluation of every major module, with a documented decision matrix.
DELIVERABLE / 05
Utility Engineering
Electrical, compressed air, chilled water, hot oil, gas and extraction sized and routed alongside the process.
Automation engineering
PLC, SCADA and Industry 4.0 — engineered as one control layer.
Every NEVO factory ships with a coherent controls architecture: deterministic PLC control on the line, plant-wide SCADA on top, secure edge gateways for remote monitoring and an MES-ready historian for Industry 4.0 analytics.
PLC control
Siemens S7-1500 / Rockwell / Beckhoff.
SCADA & HMI
WinCC / FactoryTalk with role-based access.
Remote monitoring
Edge gateway, VPN, 24/7 dashboards.
Industry 4.0
OEE, historian, MES and ERP integration.

Project execution
From foundations to first panel — engineered every step.
Execution is where engineering earns its fee. Our site teams enforce the design intent from ground-breaking to acceptance run.
STEP · 01
Factory Construction
Structural erection supervised against engineered loads and tolerances.
STEP · 02
Installation
Mechanical and electrical installation aligned to the engineered general arrangement.
STEP · 03
Commissioning
Cold and hot commissioning, chemistry setup and performance qualification.
STEP · 04
Training
Operators, maintenance, quality and leadership trained to signed-off skill matrices.
Continuous improvement
Engineering does not stop at handover.
A factory that stops evolving starts decaying. NEVO's optimisation practice keeps OEE, quality and cost per m² on a measurable improvement curve.
FIG. 05
Production optimisation
OEE, availability, performance and quality tracked continuously — the north star of every optimisation project.
FIG. 06
Quality control lab
Density, peel, compression, dimensional and thermal testing — engineered laboratories, engineered discipline.
SERVICE
OEE tracking
Availability × performance × quality, live.
SERVICE
Quality control
Certified test regimes for every panel batch.
SERVICE
Performance monitoring
Remote KPI dashboards and monthly reviews.
SERVICE
Factory audits
Independent audits with prioritised action plans.
Integrated solutions
Engineering, panels and raw materials — one engineered ecosystem.
Factories engineered by NEVO can be paired with NEVO-supplied panels and matched raw materials, so specification, chemistry and line behaviour are aligned from the first cell.
FIG. 07
Finished sandwich panels
Bridge demand during factory build-up with panels engineered to the same standard as your future line.
FIG. 08
Raw materials
Steel, chemistry, insulation cores and adhesives, matched to the recipe and line speed engineered for your plant.
