Assessing Machine Condition:
When your machinery reaches SYKES MACHINES, we begin with a comprehensive evaluation. This evaluation empowers our
Engineering Department to outline dependable retrofitting and upgrading plans for each machine. We strategize
the necessary actions, resources, and spare parts, minimizing downtime during execution. We also offer on-site
visits to understand your needs better and provide initial technical and financial evaluations.
Dismantling Mechanical Components:
Positioning your machinery at our facilities, we move on to disassembling and removing mechanical parts and
functional sub-assemblies. Wear and tear are taken into account, and we inspect these elements for repairs or
replacements. Our seasoned engineers evaluate the requirements and any severely damaged parts that need direct
replacement. This process is pivotal to ensure swift refurbishment, reducing downtime for you.
Adjusting and Repairing:
Following the disassembly, a thorough inspection of each mechanical part occurs. Based on wear during its life cycle,
our expert engineers determine adjustments, repairs, or replacements. Components like spindles, bearings,
belts, motors, gears, sensors, and more are meticulously examined. Necessary repairs or replacements are made to
restore original performance and tolerance, guaranteeing satisfying results for you.
Electrical and Electronic Enhancement:
Beyond mechanical improvements, we focus on electrical and electronic upgrades. SYKES MACHINES replaces or upgrades electric
and electronic components, ensuring compatibility with the latest technology. Components prone to obsolescence are swapped out.
This electrical transformation complements the mechanical enhancements, resulting in a comprehensive machinery improvement.
Assembly and Testing:
Rejuvenated parts and components are assembled by our skilled engineers. Every aspect, from mechanical to electrical,
is tested for proper operation, accuracy, and alignment. This phase ensures that the rebuilt machine functions
seamlessly, offering reliability and confidence.
Compliance and Safety:
We strictly adhere to safety regulations during the retrofitting process. This includes adding safety features, guards,
and emergency systems. Our focus is on creating a safer work environment for users and workers, aligning with current regulations.
Installation and Activation:
Once retrofitted and optimized, your machinery is ready for installation at your facility. This step ensures that
the machine integrates well with your operations, promising precision and efficiency.
Precision Calibration and Customer Approval:
Our ultimate goal is your satisfaction. We calibrate and extensively test the retrofitted machine's performance,
verifying geometries, tolerances, and other essential aspects. This testing, using advanced technology and
expert personnel, guarantees the machine functions flawlessly. Only when we've achieved your complete satisfaction
and ensured peak performance, our job is considered done. This marks the beginning of our ongoing Preventive
Maintenance contracts or Technical Support, sustaining the machine's exceptional performance.
In essence, SYKES MACHINES doesn't just retrofit machines; we elevate possibilities. Our meticulous process
ensures that your machinery is reborn, embodying excellence, reliability, and innovation.
