Custom & OEM Heat Exchanger Manufacturer: A Complete Guide

A custom heat exchanger is a unit uniquely designed by a manufacturer like Shanghai Jiangxing to meet the specific thermal, physical, and material requirements of a customer's process. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) production involves us manufacturing heat exchangers for another company to integrate into their larger product or system, often under their brand name. We offer both services, providing engineering expertise for one-off projects and reliable, scalable production for OEM partners.

Our custom design process is collaborative and engineering-led. It begins with an initial consultation to understand your needs, led by our contact Evan. We then perform thermal modeling to determine the required size and plate configuration. This is followed by preparing CAD drawings for your approval, selecting the appropriate materials (e.g., 316L, Titanium), and finally, fabrication and rigorous pressure testing at our Shanghai facility. Our process ensures the final unit performs exactly as required.

To begin the design process for a custom unit, our engineers require key technical data. This includes the types of fluids involved, their flow rates, inlet and outlet temperatures, operating pressures, and any physical space or connection constraints. The more detailed the information you provide, the more accurately we can model and design the ideal thermal solution for your application. We can work with you to define these parameters if they are not fully known.

For OEM partners, Shanghai Jiangxing offers a reliable and cost-effective manufacturing solution. Our location in Shanghai, China provides significant advantages in production cost and access to a robust supply chain. We maintain strict confidentiality and quality control, with capabilities to manufacture according to ASME, PED, and other international codes. Our experience in global logistics ensures your products are delivered on time, anywhere in the world. To discuss a partnership, contact Evan at jxmike@shheatex.com.

We can customize our full range of products, including gasketed plate heat exchangers, fully-welded units, brazed plate models, and shell-and-tube exchangers. Customizations can range from unique connection sizes and locations to non-standard materials for plates or shells, and specific design pressures or temperatures to handle challenging industrial processes. Our engineering team is adept at finding solutions for unique requirements.
