Emergency Machining

• Equipment breakdown: In industrial settings, equipment can unexpectedly break down, leading to production stoppages. Emergency machining works to reduce your downtime in these circumstances.
• Component failure: Critical components within machinery or mechanical systems can fail due to wear and tear, material fatigue, or unforeseen circumstances. Emergency machining is needed to manufacture or repair these failed components to ensure the smooth functioning of the system.
• Accidents or collisions: Accidental collisions or impacts can cause severe damage to machine parts or equipment. Emergency machining is required to assess the damage, provide immediate repairs, or fabricate new parts to quickly restore functionality to your operations.
• Tooling failure: Tooling failures in manufacturing processes can lead to defective or damaged products. Emergency machining services can help diagnose the issue, repair or replace the faulty tooling, and prevent further production delays or quality issues.
• Unavailability of spare parts: Spare parts may not be readily available in stock or may have long lead times for delivery. In such cases, emergency machining can be employed to manufacture or modify existing parts to meet immediate requirements and minimise downtime.

In all these scenarios, emergency machining services provide immediate solutions, minimise downtime, and ensure the continuity of your operations.

A quick response time is essential. Emergency machining services are designed to provide immediate assistance in urgent situations, that’s why we aim to respond to emergencies within 24 hours.

We begin by providing a thorough assessment of the problem. Our specialist team of machinists will undergo a site survey, evaluating the situation to determine the best course of action. They may clean, inspect, and disassemble equipment to determine the required componentry that needs to be created or repaired. Throughout this, they will keep you up to date with a detailed explanation of the problem and the proposed solution.

Once these bespoke components and solutions have been created, our machinists will reassemble your equipment, allowing you to return to your day-to-day operations. We provide clear communication throughout the process – keeping you informed about the progress, any challenges faced, and the estimated time for completion.

Expect a reliable and durable solution. Emergency machining services aim to fix the problem promptly while ensuring a long-term solution. The machinists will strive to deliver high-quality work that meets your expectations and ensures the smooth operation of your machinery.

• Minimal downtime during an emergency. Quick repairs reduce the impact on productivity and avoid costly production delays. Our services are available 24/7, ensuring that repairs can be made promptly, even during weekends or holidays.
• Flexibility in addressing unexpected breakdowns or accidents. It eliminates the need to wait for new parts to be manufactured or delivered (when out of stock), as our emergency machinists create your custom components. This saves time and allows for tailored solutions, ensuring a precise fit and optimal functionality.
• Helps prevent further damage or safety hazards. By swiftly repairing or replacing damaged parts, potential risks associated with operating machinery with faulty components can be mitigated. This protects both machinery and personnel, enhancing workplace safety.
