Refurbishment and Repair of Mill Components

We manufacture high-precision rolls and specialise in expert refurbishment and repair services for various mill components.

Whether it’s repairing worn surfaces on rolls, replacing damaged parts on bearings, or enhancing performance through precision refurbishment techniques, our team is dedicated to delivering outstanding results that prolong the lifespan and efficiency of your mill equipment.

Our rolling mill refurbishment services currently cover manufacturing or repair services for the following components:

Shafts and Spindles

We can refurbish them to your requirements, mainly for machine tools like lathes, mills, and grinders.

Spacers

Spacers play a vital role in mill production by ensuring proper spacing, but they can wear down over time. They protect components and improve overall machinery performance and durability, so they must maintain their original shape.

Slitter and Separator Blades

Mainly used in the paper, metal, and textile industries, slitter blades are used to cut materials into narrower strips or rolls. In contrast, separator blades help divide and organise the cut materials. If you need your blades sharpened or replaced, we have the machine capability to do this.

Shear/Cut-off Dies

Shear or cut-off dies cut materials to specific lengths or separate finished parts from raw stock. We can repair your cut-off and shear tooling to enhance your rolling process.

Circular Knives

Circular knives are used to cut various materials across various industries. They need to be kept in good condition to avoid rough cuts and avoiding any production issues.

Bearing Sleeves

Bearing sleeves are typically manufactured from durable materials like carbon, chrome, or stainless steel. They are precision-engineered components designed for severe service applications in high-volume production environments.

Mill Stands and Other Components.

We can refurbish various components, so please get in touch with your specific requirements.
