Universal offers a large selection of industrial machinery, with options available both as-is and fully reconditioned to fit diverse operational needs. Recently, our expert team reconditioned a cut-off press machine, restoring it to optimal running condition and showcasing our reconditioning capabilities.
Complete Overhaul
The process began with disassembling the press, followed by power-washing and detail-cleaning all components. We then painted the parts and reassembled the machine to factory specifications.
Repairs and Modifications
Key repairs included certified welding of a cracked upper plate and rethreading worn holes. We modified the base height to meet the customer’s passline requirements, machined post extensions to create a 16.5″ opening height, cut a slug chute into the bed, and added new holes for die rails.
New Replacement Parts
The machine was outfitted with new airbags, internal components for Ross valves, vibration dampeners, air lines, an upgraded regulator, air dryer, adjustable bump stops, cushions, and a safety air shut-off valve.
Testing
After reconditioning, we conducted a comprehensive functionality test to ensure reliable operation.
