How a repair runs

Scope of work. We agree in writing what will be done, and the hold points if you have a QCP.
Testing where needed. Ultrasonic testing by a specialist NDT partner.
Pre-machine the worn or damaged areas.
Fit new parts, for example press-fitting new rings.
Final machine to drawing.
Check run-out on rotating parts.
QCP sign-off. We sign off each stage on your QCP. If anything must deviate from the drawing, we raise it through your concession process.

Where a repair needs it, we also arrange specialist welding, including shaft welding, hard chrome plating and thermal spray coatings through specialist partners.

Repair or replace?

Send photos or the part. If a repair will not restore the part to drawing, we quote a new one: we make shafts, rings, sleeves and bushes to drawing, and have made shafts, sleeves and nuts to a worn sample.
