OUR COMPREHENSIVE
RANGE OF SERVICES
Line boring is a specialized machining process used to repair and restore cylindrical bores, typically in large equipment and machinery. The process involves enlarging or repairing existing bores using a boring bar that is inserted into the bore and rotated to cut material. Line boring is commonly used in the mining, construction, and agricultural industries to repair or modify equipment such as excavators, bulldozers, and tractors.
Hot tapping is a technique used to create a branch connection on an existing pipeline without interrupting the flow of the fluid or gas being transported. The process involves drilling a hole into the pipeline, installing a valve, and attaching a branch pipe to the valve. Hot tapping is used in the oil and gas industry, as well as in water treatment and distribution systems.
Roller grinding is a process used to maintain and repair large rotating rollers used in heavy machinery such as cranes, excavators, and conveyor systems. The process involves grinding the surface of the roller to remove damage and wear and restore the roller to its original dimensions. Roller grinding is essential for ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of heavy machinery in industries such as mining, construction, and manufacturing.
Milling is a machining process used to remove material from a workpiece using a rotating cutter. Key milling is a specific type of milling used to create keyways or slots in a workpiece. Milling and key milling are used in a variety of industries to produce a wide range of products, from machine parts and components to automotive and aerospace components.
Flange facing is a machining process used to resurface and clean the mating surfaces of flanges in piping systems. The process involves machining the surface of the flange to ensure that it is flat and smooth, which helps to create a leak-free seal when the flanges are bolted together. Flange facing is used in a variety of industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.
Pipe cutting and weld prepping is a process used to prepare pipes for welding and installation. The process involves cutting pipes to length and preparing the edges of the pipe for welding, including bevelling and facing. Pipe cutting and weld prepping are used in a variety of industries, including oil and gas, power generation, and water treatment.
Boring and tapping are machining processes used to create holes and threads in a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Boring involves enlarging an existing hole, while tapping involves cutting threads into a hole. Boring and tapping are used in a variety of industries to produce a wide range of products, from machine parts and components to automotive and aerospace components.
Kiln tyre and support roller grinding is a specialized service used to refurbish and repair large rotary kilns, dryers, and similar equipment used in various industries, including cement, mining, power generation, and chemical plants. The process involves grinding the surfaces of the kiln tyres and support rollers to remove wear and damage and restore their original specifications.
Journal turning and cutting is a machining process used to repair and restore cylindrical surfaces, typically on large equipment and machinery such as turbines and generators. The process involves turning and cutting the surface of the journal to remove damage and wear and restore it to its original dimensions. Journal turning and cutting is used in industries such as power generation and heavy equipment manufacturing.
