- Spindles
We check the spindles and related equipment that impacts machining performance. - Spindle Oil Systems
We evaluate the critical spindle oil system, ensuring the rolling elements avoid direct contact with the raceways. - Electrical Systems
Our technicians evaluate electrical components for issues that may impact otherwise good mechanical systems. - Hydraulic Systems
Proper hydraulic system service reduces CNC machine failure and maximizes operating life. - Way Lube Systems
A healthy way lube system ensures machine tool performance, uptime, and utilization. - X / Y / Z Axis
Our technicians carefully check axis alignment and make necessary adjustments, calibrations, or repairs. - Machine Geometry
We help you establish geometrically correct machine tools by checking and rectifying various elements. - Wire EDM Machines
A wire EDM requires considerable attention as one of the most maintenance-intensive pieces of equipment in the machine shop.
Preventive Maintenance
We provide customers with preventive maintenance support and information resources to keep your machines running.

Reduce Downtime
Fixing CNC machines after they break down takes longer, mainly because the problem often involves ordering replacement parts and calling in a technician.
Maintain Peak Efficiency
CNC machines heading toward a breakdown often operate below optimum capacity.
Prolong Machine Life
Performing proper inspections and timely parts replacements extends the machine’s life and ensures the greatest ROI.
Maintain Quality
Upkeep and routine servicing reduce wasted production materials and improve product quality.
Reduce Tool Failure
Maintaining machines at factory specifications avoids the risk of a catastrophic problem that may impact tools and automation systems.
