At EMG-BSI, we are committed to providing the highest quality special machinery assembly and retrofit solutions. Our expertise, combined with our ability to understand each client's specific challenges, allows us to design, assemble, and integrate tailor-made equipment that meets the most stringent industry requirements.








Assembly of special machines
Special machine assembly involves the construction and assembly of custom industrial devices designed for specific tasks within a production line or manufacturing process.
These machines can be used in various industries, such as automotive, aerospace, food processing, among others.
Assembly often involves the creation of automated systems, custom production lines or unique machines adapted to specific needs.
The assembly of special machines brings together the expertise of many trades. Working closely with the design offices and methods departments of many companies, our assembly teams are at your disposal to find industrial solutions to each of your problems together.
Retrofit: renovation of special machines
Retrofitting involves modernizing and improving existing equipment by integrating newer, more efficient technologies.
This approach allows obsolete or outdated machines to be optimized by adapting them to current performance, safety, energy efficiency and regulatory requirements.
Retrofitting can include adding new components, upgrading control systems, or even completely transforming machines to make them more efficient and productive.





Electricity and automation
For this type of request, EMG-BSI brings its expertise and adapts its electrical engineering, industrial automation and computerized systems solutions to the mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic constraints of your special machines.

What is your process?
The process of assembling and retrofitting special machines begins with a thorough analysis of the customer's needs. At EMG-BSI, our team of experienced engineers assesses the specific requirements, technical constraints, and objectives to be achieved.
Then, we design tailor-made solutions, using the latest technologies and the most advanced manufacturing methods to assemble machines tailored to each project.
Why use a subcontractor for the assembly of special machines?
Using a subcontractor specializing in the assembly of special machinery offers many benefits for businesses. Here are some key reasons why outsourcing these services can be beneficial:
Specialized expertise: Special machinery assembly subcontractors often have extensive expertise in this field. Their experience allows them to understand technical challenges, provide innovative solutions, and optimize the assembly process for maximum performance.
Resources and Equipment: These subcontractors typically have facilities equipped with cutting-edge technology and specialized resources needed to design, assemble, and test special machines. This saves your company from having to invest heavily in these infrastructures.
Flexibility and agility: Outsourcing the assembly of special machines offers valuable flexibility. Subcontractors can adapt to your needs in terms of production capacity, deadlines, and changing project requirements.
Cost reduction: By outsourcing, you can potentially reduce the costs associated with recruiting qualified personnel, purchasing specialized equipment, and managing assembly operations. Subcontractors can often offer more cost-effective solutions.
Focus on core business: By delegating assembly to specialists, your company can focus on its core activities, thus increasing its productivity and competitiveness in the market.
Quality and Compliance: Specialized subcontractors place a high value on quality and compliance with industry standards. They often have rigorous quality control processes to ensure reliable and compliant results.
Peak Production Management: When demand spikes or additional capacity is needed, subcontractors can respond quickly without your company having to invest in additional resources in the long term.
Reduced lead times: Experienced subcontractors are often able to meet tight deadlines thanks to their expertise, optimized processes and focus on assembly projects.
What are the advantages of retrofitting?
Retrofitting an old machine offers several significant advantages, including:
1. Modernization and Performance Improvement
Older machines may sometimes not meet current standards in terms of performance, safety, or efficiency. Retrofitting allows you to integrate modern technologies to improve performance, reduce downtime, and increase productivity.
2. Economy and Profitability
Investing in a retrofit can be more cost-effective than purchasing a new machine. By modernizing an existing machine, you save on acquisition costs while benefiting from improved performance comparable to that of a new machine.
3. Adaptability to New Standards and Regulations
Older machines may not comply with current safety standards or regulations. Retrofitting allows equipment to be upgraded to comply with new standards, ensuring operator safety and regulatory compliance.
4. Maximizing Machine Lifespan
By modernizing and replacing obsolete or worn components, retrofitting can extend the useful life of machines. It also avoids frequent replacement costs and contributes to a better return on investment.
5. Integration of New Features
Retrofitting allows you to integrate new features into an existing machine. This can include automation, adding sensors for data collection, improving controls, and more, to meet modern production requirements.
6. Reduced Downtime
By refurbishing and modernizing existing machinery, retrofitting reduces downtime by minimizing unplanned breakdowns and improving operational reliability.
7. Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility
Retrofitting promotes sustainability by avoiding complete machine replacement. This reduces waste associated with disposing of old machines while providing improved performance with a reduced environmental footprint.
