Paper Industries
If you operate plant in the paper industry, you’ll be familiar with the range of machinery repairs and the constant challenge presented by meeting production targets, working to tightly controlled operating budgets and upgrading equipment to stay competitive in competitive markets.
Cost-effective In Situ repairs
Traditionally, paper industry repairs rely on time-consuming strip down and repair. Our skills and expertise (gained over several decades in the industry) now make in situ repairs a cost-effective and reliable alternative when you must save time and money – and get plant working again as fast as possible.
Processes for the paper industry
Here’s a selection of the work we can do for you:
- Grinding of drying cylinders.
- Grinding and hydrostatic debarking of drum tyres and thrust faces.
- Sleeving of damaged drying-cylinder journals.
- Calendar roll and frame machining.
- Line boring and milling of printing machine frames.
- Thermal spraying of cylinders.
Whether we’re regrinding drying rolls or repairing your plant with advanced thermal spraying, we regularly complete jobs in a fraction of the time they used to take. The benefits for reduced downtime are obvious and the quality is the best. For complete peace of mind, we also offer related services such as pressure vessel reassessment before your plant re-enters service.
