In the industrial processing sector, expanding an existing plant to meet new regulatory or productivity requirements is a frequent challenge. Operational flexibility and rapid integration are key factors in maintaining efficiency and quickly responding to market demands.
In this context the autonomous industrial modules integration for fluid handling is becoming an increasingly widespread and effective solution—particularly in the food, chemical, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries.
These functional and versatile modules—often custom-designed—are ready for integration into production lines. As they are typically assembled and tested in-house by specialized technicians before delivery, they arrive on site installation-ready. This drastically reduces plant downtime and simplifies the startup process.

G‑Skid: Granzotto’s Proven Industrial Modules for Fluid Handling
Industrial modules—also known as skids—are compact, self-contained units that house all components required for a specific process: pumps, valves, piping, measuring instruments, control systems, and electrical panels. Everything is mounted on a supporting frame (skid), which facilitates transport, positioning, and installation.
Thanks to their plug-and-play configuration, Granzotto’s G‑Skid tested industrial modules offer fast installation, maximum flexibility, smart automation, and certified testing—enabling improved production operations, reduced costs, and increased efficiency.
This cross-sector adaptability makes industrial modules a strategic solution for companies managing complex fluids, striking a balance between standardization and customization, and between technical performance and regulatory compliance.

Vantaggi dei moduli industriali integrabili
Installazione rapida e riduzione dei costi operativi
I moduli industriali preassemblati e collaudati in fabbrica semplificano l’installazione, limitando l’intervento in campo a semplici connessioni meccaniche ed elettriche. Questo consente di ridurre tempi di fermo impianto, costi di manodopera e rischi legati all’installazione, garantendo un avvio produttivo veloce e sicuro.
Affidabilità certificata e conformità normativa
Ogni modulo viene testato con controlli funzionali e strumenti certificati secondo le normative alimentari, chimiche, ATEX e ISO. Il collaudo in fabbrica assicura elevata affidabilità, sicurezza operativa e agevola l’ottenimento delle certificazioni necessarie per l’accesso ai mercati internazionali.
Modularità e personalizzazione su misura
Grazie alla struttura modulare, i sistemi si adattano facilmente a diverse applicazioni industriali. Materiali, automazione, compatibilità fluidi e standard igienici sono configurabili in base alle esigenze specifiche. I moduli sono inoltre integrabili con impianti esistenti e facilmente espandibili.
Automazione intelligente e Industria 5.0
I moduli sono equipaggiati con sistemi di controllo avanzati (PLC, HMI, SCADA) per il monitoraggio in tempo reale, la gestione remota e l’ottimizzazione del processo. L’automazione riduce gli errori umani, garantisce tracciabilità, migliora l’efficienza e si allinea ai requisiti del Piano Transizione 5.0, valorizzando il ruolo dell’operatore e migliorando sostenibilità e sicurezza.
Key Advantages of Industrial Modules
Fast Installation and Reduced Operating Costs
Pre-assembled and factory-tested modules simplify on-site installation, requiring only basic mechanical and electrical connections. This significantly cuts downtime, labor costs, and installation risks—ensuring a quick and safe startup.
Certified Reliability and Regulatory Compliance
Each module undergoes functional testing with certified instruments and complies with food, chemical, ATEX, and ISO standards. Factory testing ensures high reliability, operational safety, and facilitates the necessary certifications for international market access.
Modular Design and Custom Configuration
The modular structure makes systems easily adaptable to a wide range of industrial applications. Materials, automation systems, fluid compatibility, and hygienic standards are all configurable based on specific requirements. Modules can also be integrated into existing systems and expanded as needed.
Smart Automation and Industry 5.0 Integration
Modules are equipped with advanced control systems (PLC, HMI, SCADA) for real-time monitoring, remote management, and process optimization. Automation minimizes human error, ensures traceability, improves efficiency, and aligns with Industry 5.0 guidelines—enhancing operator roles while improving sustainability and safety.
Typical Applications
G‑Skid modules are designed for a wide range of functions across various stages of the production cycle in the wine, food (sauces, juices, water), cosmetics, chemical (paints, lubricants), and petrochemical industries. The product range includes fully customized solutions based on fluid properties (viscosity, chemical compatibility, temperature) and applicable regulations.
- CIP (Clean-In-Place): Automated cleaning and sanitizing systems that don’t require plant disassembly
- Pigging Systems: Product recovery using pig push technology inside pipelines
- Piping Systems: Controlled fluid distribution using pumps, valves, and dosing systems
- Process Temperature Control: Integrated thermal regulation units
- Dosing and Mixing: High-precision multi-recipe formulation capability
- Filtration: Mechanical fluid treatment for impurity removal
Key Industrial Sectors
Industrial modules integration offer exceptional versatility for the fluid handling. Their compact and modular design not only streamlines system planning, but also simplifies installation and maintenance. High customization potential ensures that each module can be tailored to the unique operational needs of its target industry.
Winemaking and Alcoholic Beverage Production
Modular systems are especially effective for managing critical stages such as dosing and liquid mixing, ensuring high standards of safety and hygiene. Precise temperature control and integrated CIP systems contribute to consistent product quality and simplified cleaning procedures.
Food Industry
Widely used in the production of sauces, juices, oils, and dairy products, these modules are engineered to meet strict hygiene standards. They offer precise dosing and agitation functions along with cleaning capabilities that reduce daily maintenance and cross-contamination risks.
Chemical and Cosmetics Industries
In industries handling aggressive or flammable substances, modules are built with chemically resistant materials (PP, PVC, PE) to ensure durability and compatibility. They are also designed for operation in ATEX-classified environments, making them safe for use in explosion-risk zones. Precise filtration and dosing control are critical here for both product quality and process safety.
