Retrofit
Retrofit is cost effective alternative to buying a new machine. Any large machine older than ten years and mechanically sound is a prime target for retrofit. If you happen to own one of those we encourage you to consider benefits of retrofit:
- New controls are much faster and more reliable
- They are user friendlier and easier to integrate into networks
- Programming is easier with many new options and features
- Data storage capabilities are improved beyond comparison
- Accuracy of machines fitted with new controls is improved due to enhanced setting capabilities and faster processors
- Retrofitting existing machine eliminates need for new foundation, operator training, moving and installation cost etc.
- Some operations on your machine could be customized to suite your specific needs
- New features could be added, such as glass scales, tool / touch probes, tool changer or even additional axis
- Retrofit increases value of the machine for more than you invest if you decide to sell it afterwards
We can also rebuild your Machine Tool to bring it even step closer to new condition.
