Our machine rebuild projects satisfy a variety of objectives: upgrading product quality, changing grades or increasing production. Our assignment usually begins with planning and procurement, advancing through to detailed design, construction management and startup assistance. Each rebuild is carefully planned to minimize downtime and disruption to existing manufacturing operations.

We have worked on rebuild projects ranging from complete machines involving all of the support facilities, to the replacement of a single speed limiting item such as a headbox, press section, winder or paper machine drive. Our experience covers paper machines from the wet end to the dry end as well as:

• Vacuum systems
• White water management
• Coating facilities
• Electrical systems and drives
• Structural and dynamic modeling of the machine structural system
• Machine component design
• Utilization of used equipment
