Industrial Engineering Services
In 1956 we founded our hydro-air division. Since then we’ve been helping clients get the best possible performance from their compressed air systems and from their various pumping processes.
Industrial Equipment Engineering Built Around the Application
Pye-Barker provides industrial engineering services for pump, compressed air, blower and vacuum systems throughout Georgia and Florida.
Our team evaluates the application, operating conditions and complete system before equipment is selected. Flow, pressure, demand, air quality, piping, controls, maintenance access and future production requirements can all affect system performance.
Whether a facility is planning a new line, replacing equipment or correcting a performance problem, Pye-Barker can help define the requirement and develop a practical path forward.

Start With What the System Must Deliver
Industrial equipment should be selected around the actual process requirement, rather than an isolated model number. Pye-Barker reviews what the system must move, compress or evacuate; the required flow, pressure or vacuum; operating hours; environmental conditions; controls; utilities; maintenance needs and expected changes in demand.
That complete-system approach helps identify restrictions, undersized components, air-treatment problems, control issues and other conditions that can limit performance even when the primary equipment is correctly sized.
What Our Industrial Engineering Services Include
Support can be tailored to a new system, an expansion, equipment replacement or an existing performance problem.
Application and System Evaluation
Review the process requirement, operating conditions, existing equipment and the complete system surrounding the application.
Flow, Pressure and Demand Analysis
Define the flow, pressure, vacuum, air quality and demand profile the system must maintain under real operating conditions.
Equipment Sizing and Selection
Compare suitable pump, compressor, blower, vacuum and supporting equipment options based on the required duty.
System and Controls Review
Consider piping, storage, treatment, filtration, controls, instrumentation, access and integration with existing plant systems.
Engineered Packages
Coordinate equipment, accessories, controls and supporting components as a complete package where the application requires it.
Installation and Startup Support
Support installation coordination, startup, commissioning and corrective action when performance does not match the approved requirement.
Equipment and Systems We Engineer
Pump System Engineering
Pump selection depends on more than flow and pressure. Fluid properties, viscosity, solids, temperature, suction conditions, materials, seals, piping, controls and duty cycle can affect reliability and process performance. Pye-Barker helps evaluate these conditions before specifying new or replacement equipment.
Compressed Air System Engineering
A compressed air system must balance production demand, pressure, air quality, storage, treatment and control. Pye-Barker can help review compressors, dryers, filtration, receivers, distribution, controls and demand-side conditions so the complete system supports the application.
Blower and Vacuum System Engineering
Blower and vacuum performance depends on required airflow, pressure or vacuum level, piping loss, filtration, separation, temperature, contamination and operating environment. Pye-Barker evaluates the complete duty before recommending equipment or system changes.

How the Engineering Process Works
Define the Requirement
Document the application, required performance, operating schedule, constraints and success criteria.
Evaluate the System
Review existing equipment, piping, treatment, controls, utilities and the conditions affecting performance.
Engineer the Solution
Size and specify the equipment, accessories and system changes required for the approved duty.
Coordinate Installation and Startup
Support installation, startup and commissioning so the completed system can be checked against the requirement.
Support Long-Term Performance
Provide service, repair, parts and system-improvement support as equipment and production requirements change.
Engineering Support Beyond Equipment Selection
Pye-Barker has supported Southeastern manufacturers with pumps, compressed air equipment, blowers and vacuum systems since 1936, with dedicated Hydro-Air engineering capabilities dating to 1956.
Our engineers, manufacturer-trained service technicians and sales representatives work across equipment selection, engineered packages, installation, startup, maintenance and repair. That continuity helps keep the original operating requirement connected to the system throughout its service life.
