Services
CNC Retrofit
CNC Retrofit services replace outdated controls with modern systems, enhancing machine efficiency and reducing downtime. We specialise in Siemens, Fanuc, and Bosch Rexroth technologies, offering full electrical overhauls and pre-installation testing. Clients benefit from improved programming capabilities and long-term support for sustained operational excellence.
Machine Refurbishment
Machine Refurbishment restores mechanical accuracy through slideway grinding, component replacement, and full rebuilds to OEM specifications. This extends machinery lifespan while cutting costs compared to new purchases. Our process adheres to BS 4656 standards, ensuring precision and reliability for industries requiring high-tolerance operations.
Special Purpose Machines
Special Purpose Machines are engineered for unique production needs, integrating advanced automation and design. We collaborate closely with clients to develop cost-effective, innovative solutions that boost productivity and reduce maintenance expenses. These systems range from standalone units to complete production cells tailored to specific manufacturing processes.
Electrical Cabinet Build
Electrical Cabinet Build services create compliant, high-quality control systems using AutoCAD LT and BS EN 60204 standards. Our in-house team assembles panels with safety-focused components, ensuring seamless integration with machinery. This guarantees reliable operation and compliance with machinery directive and EMC regulations.
Project Management
Project Management oversees end-to-end execution of refurbishment and retrofit projects, from initial design to commissioning. We coordinate mechanical, electrical, and software elements, ensuring timely delivery and adherence to client specifications. This holistic approach minimises downtime and guarantees alignment with operational goals.
