This page continues our case study series on how portable line boring supports the metal industry. By providing on-site precision machining, we help factories extend equipment life, improve efficiency, and reduce downtime. Here are additional project examples.
Case 4 — Robotic Welding Cells
Problem: Robotic welding arms lost accuracy due to worn pivot joints.
Solution: We manufactured custom fixtures to line bore the joints without dismantling the robots.
Result: Restored precision welding, improving production consistency.
Case 5 — Heavy Casting Machines
Problem: Large die-casting equipment suffered oversized bores, causing frequent breakdowns.
Solution: Bore welding was applied to build up worn areas, followed by line boring with a custom boring bar.
Result: Extended the life of the casting machine by several years.
Case 6 — Industrial Mixers
Problem: Shaft housings in industrial metal mixers showed excessive wear, creating vibration.
Solution: A portable boring machine restored alignment and balance, reducing stress on drive motors.
Result: Energy efficiency improved and bearing life extended.
