Roll Services
Roll overhaul
Our overhaul process includes a complete teardown and inspection of all components to include bearing housings and subcomponents, NDT, and journal inspection. Upon completion, our customer receives a detailed inspection report that includes all measured data in relation to the fit specifications they require. This report will also include repair recommendations for our customers to consider along with prices and lead times.
Upon completion of customer elected repairs and a QC check the roller is then re-assembled, lubricated, balanced, and painted to the customers desired specifications.
Roll Journal replacement
The journal replacement service is our specialty. We have the capability to replace journals on covered rollers and non-covered rollers weighing up to 60,000 lbs. Using top of the line CAD (SolidWorks & Autodesk) we can reverse engineer the current configuration for replacement as well as re-design journals to adapt to new conditions.
New Roll
We can manufacture a new roll up to 30,000 LBS which would include most wire & felt rolls, reel spools, broke conveyor rolls and smaller press rolls.
Balancing
With our Schenck HM6B three plane balancer we can balance rollers or any other rotating equipment to a G1.0 specification at up to 10,000 FPM depending on the size and length of the roller. Max OD is 80” and max length is 400”.
New roll components
With our wide range of CNC capabilities we can manufacture new roll components such as bearing housings, housing covers, and subcomponents such as retainers and water flingers.
Other services
CNC Machining
As one of the southeast’s premiere CNC machine shops, we at Georgia Machine Works utilize advanced Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining to offer exceptional precision machine shop services. Our CNC automated systems are profiling high-quality products, taking your design schematics and transforming them into tangible products with unmatched precision and accuracy.
Our CNC milling capabilities go beyond traditional 3-axis machining to include 4th and 5th-axis machining, which allows us to machine more complex features or multiple features on the same part with fewer re-positioning and fixturing requirements. Additionally, we have programmers on-site that are capable of designing and creating advanced tool paths for machined parts using offline programming software.
With our expertise and manufacturing capabilities, we are able to manufacture custom parts to a tight tolerance that meets your exact requirements for quality and accuracy. Call us today for more information or to discuss your precision CNC machining needs!
