Machine Retrofitting

Machine retrofitting and engineering is the assessment and modification of existing machines instead of purchasing new machines or “greening” an old machine by adding more energy-efficient engineering features to it. Retrofit refers to any improvement work on an existing building to improve its energy efficiency, making them easier to heat, able to retain that heat for longer, and replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy.

Retrofitting is needed where the building is not in good condition as compared to existing building. It aims at strengthening a structure with requirements of current code for seismic design.
