CNC MACHINE TOOLS RETROFIT/REBUILD

A retrofit consists of replacing the machine's control. Retrofits are usually done at the customer's location, thereby saving downtime and transportation cost. Machines that are in good condition are the best candidates for retrofits. A rebuild on a CNC machine tool usually consists of a retrofit and some mechanical work, but not a complete remanufacture. Repairing or replacing ballscrews is common, as is repairing a specific item on the machine tool. Depending on the extent of work required, rebuilds may be done at the customer's location or offsite at a rebuilders.
