Building Precision from the First Line on the Drawing
At LMG, precision begins long before any steel is cut or welded, it starts on the drafting screen. Our engineering and drafting team plays a foundational role in ensuring every project meets the highest standards of quality and performance. By using advanced CAD software and a library of more than 900 proprietary drawing packages, our designers can create detailed, accurate, and cost-efficient designs tailored to each client’s needs. Structural analysis, nozzle load evaluations, and lifting-lug designs are reviewed by professional engineers registered under APEGA, EGBC, and APEGS. This upfront accuracy minimizes design errors, prevents costly revisions, and ensures our fabrication teams are working from clear, dependable information.
How Our Facilities and Processes Maintain Tight Tolerances
Precision only matters if it carries through to fabrication, and that’s where LMG’s specialized facilities make a difference. In Nisku, our high-definition plasma cutting table and dedicated plate prep equipment allow us to handle and process steel with exceptional accuracy. Meanwhile, our Vermilion and Battleford shops offer controlled indoor environments, large-scale handling capacity, and dedicated blast and paint bays, ensuring that every stage of fabrication can be done consistently, efficiently, and safely.
These facilities operate within a robust Quality Management System designed to monitor procedures, documentation, training, and audits. This framework allows us to maintain consistency from project to project, reduce waste, and uphold exacting standards across all departments. The result is tight tolerances, predictable outcomes, and fewer opportunities for error.
Inspection, Compliance, and the Assurance Behind Every Product
Precision doesn’t end when the fabrication is complete. Every product at LMG undergoes a rigorous inspection process performed by certified professionals, including API-653 and NACE inspectors. Using a combination of visual inspections, non-destructive testing methods, and hydrostatic or pneumatic pressure testing, our team verifies that each component meets both industry requirements and our own internal expectations.
Compliance is another area where precision plays a critical role. LMG holds certifications including an ABSA Certificate of Authorization for ASME Section VIII Division 1 pressure vessels, ASME B31.1/B31.3 piping, and CSA W47.1 welding. These credentials aren’t just paperwork, they reflect the systems, training, and accuracy required to deliver products that perform safely in demanding environments.
The Value Precision Delivers to Every Client
When prevision is built into every stage of a project, clients see the benefits immediately. Accurate drawings and clean fabrication processes reduce delays, eliminate re-work, and streamline scheduling. High-quality inspection and documented compliance give clients confidence that their equipment is reliable, safe, and fully aligned with industry standards. Long-term, equipment built with precision is easier to maintain, modify, and operate, offering better performance and a longer service life.
At LMG, precision isn’t a single step, it’s a culture that spans engineering, fabrication, and quality control. It’s the reason our clients trust their most critical projects to us, and it’s what allows us to deliver consistent, reliable results every time.
