Machine Tool Rebuilds
Machine tool rebuilding involves a detailed process to assess, measure, dismantle, catalog, research, scrape, grind, paint, fit, align, and test run. Hydraulics, pneumatics, electrical, mechanical, safety – all aspects of machine operation come under the highest levels of examination to insure like-new performance and accuracy.
You can rely on Prime Tool Rebuilders to get your machine tool rebuild job done right—on time and on budget:
- Complete machine tool disassembly/reassembly
- Way Work (including scraping, alignment, and linear way replacement)
- Expert part reconditioning and/or, machining, rebuilding, sourcing
- Work-holding Chuck repair and replacement
- Ball Screw Repair and Replacement
- Motor repair and replacement
- Spindle Repair and Rebuild
- Hand Scraping
- Grinding
- Drives Upgrades
Machine Tool Retrofits
Machine tool retrofits most often go hand in hand with machine repair or rebuild projects. A CNC Control Retrofit empowers good old machines to do even more, with additional functionality and restored reliability.
Retrofits & Modifications
Specifically designed for your machine, our retrofit solutions help:
- Improve productivity
- Expand capabilities
- Energy savings
- Extend machinery life
- Assure machine safety
Whole machine assessment (mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic)
- Panel building and re-wiring
- Complete retrofit integration
- Follow-up training and documentation (if requested)
Retrofit solutions that improve reliability and productivity and prolong machine life are obvious ways to achieve bottom line improvements. But the possibilities go far beyond that. Expanding the capabilities of your machines will open doors to new applications and business without investing in new equipment.
We can also provide customers with a full range of energy saving solutions, from simple heater band upgrades to Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) that reduce energy consumption.
