Machine Tool Rebuilding

Conventional manual machines which have lost their accuracy or are breaking down on a regular basis can be brought back to their original geometric standards by reconditioning the slideways and replacing any sub-standard components. This work is carried out at our facility in Halifax where almost everything is done in house.

We have worked with a wide variety of machine tools and manufacturers over the years. These include: Butler, Asquith, Schiess, Innse, Sharmann, Webster & Bennett, Mori Seiki, Fellows, Reischauer, Pittler, Noble & Lund, Jones & Shipman, Huron, Waldrich, Dronsfield, Crawford Swift, Binns & Berry, Mitsubishi, Mazak, Craven, Tos, Liebherr, Axa, Giddings & Lewis, Kearns, Union, Herkules, Oerlikon, Matrix, Schmaltz, Marbaix, Safop and many others.

Machine Tool Relocation

Broadbent Stanley have the ability to relocate machine tools either within an existing facility or from one facility to another and indeed from one side of the world to the other.

We have the expertise to check the existing alignments and accuracy of the machine in its existing position. Once recorded the machine is then disconnected in a controlled manner, stripped into shippable sized pieces and then we check that the packaging is sufficient to endure the journey and that no damage will occur. This damage can even be as simple as rust problems in countries where humidity is high. Once at the final destination, we will inspect the package, remove the packaging and then start the installation, ensuring that all the bases and alignments are checked at every stage. Finally the machine is fully commissioned and the alignments and accuracy are re-checked.
