Industrial Equipment Installation BC — Millwright Services
From rigging and setting to precision alignment and first-start commissioning — complete machinery installation across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.
Industrial equipment installation demands more than muscle — it requires millwright expertise to rig, set, level, align, and commission machinery to OEM specifications before it ever turns over. Raider Industrial's journeyman millwrights handle complete equipment installation across BC: from receiving and inspection through precision levelling, grouting, shaft alignment, and witnessed first-start commissioning. We work in food processing plants, port terminals, manufacturing facilities, and construction environments across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.
We carry the rigging equipment, precision measurement tools, and OEM documentation experience to install a wide range of industrial machinery — pumps, compressors, gearboxes, conveyors, mixers, presses, and general rotating equipment. ISN and Avetta prequalified, WCB compliant, and experienced with the contractor documentation requirements of BC's major industrial operators.
What We Do
Industrial Equipment Installation services across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley
Equipment Rigging & Setting
Safe rigging, transport within facility, and precision setting of machinery onto prepared foundations or structural supports. We use appropriate lifting equipment and rigging hardware for the load.
Precision Levelling & Shimming
Machinery levelled to specification using precision machinist levels and stainless shim stock. Correct levelling is the foundation for accurate shaft alignment and long equipment life.
Base Plate & Grouting
Base plate preparation, anchor bolt installation, and epoxy or cementitious grouting to create a rigid, vibration-damping foundation for pumps, compressors, and heavy machinery.
Shaft Alignment
Laser shaft alignment to OEM tolerances after installation. We document pre- and post-alignment readings and correct soft foot before final alignment to ensure readings are stable.
Mechanical Assembly & Coupling
Coupling installation, belt and chain drive tensioning, guard fitting, and mechanical assembly of drive train components to OEM torque specifications.
Commissioning & First Start
Witnessed first-start commissioning including rotation checks, vibration baseline measurement, temperature monitoring, and documentation. We stay on-site through initial run to catch installation issues before they become failures.
