Re-engineered rotary transfer machines from original maker 30/01/2007
 
rotary transfer machines, re-engineered machine tools, rebuilt machine tools A re-engineering technology department, Mikron Respeed Systems, has been set up by Mikron Machining Technology in Agno, Switzerland.

The new activity is able to source a used Mikron rotary transfer machine from the 7,000 or so installations worldwide and supply a range of services and upgrades in technology according to customer requirements and budget available. As a result, an ‘as new’ Mikron rotary transfer machine can be purchased with application and project engineering support as a turnkey solution for a price around 50 per cent of a new machine cost with a one-year warranty and full support from the original manufacturer.

To secure order entry and continuous work flow, a minimum stock of 15 machines have been sourced. These have all been stripped down, the castings checked and any refurbish work carried out. Tables, unit heads, electrics and electronics, coolant and hydraulic systems have been inspected and upgraded when needed, with new bearings, bushes, seals, and relays fitted.
