Machine Tool Repair and Rebuilds

This category includes any tools or systems related to the repairing or rebuilding of machines and tools used in the fabricating and metalworking process. A ‘rebuild’ includes restoring a machine to its original mechanical specifications, during which each mechanical component is cleaned, inspected, repaired or replaced, and then rebuilt and recalibrated. Worn surfaces are scraped, bearings and seals are repaired or replaced, hydraulic and lubrication systems are rebuilt, exterior surfaces may be repainted, and machine geometric alignments are returned to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) specifications.
