The services our subcontract partners may support
1. Manual machine tools sales and refurbishments
We welcome enquiries from engineers and businesses with experience in manual machine tools, refurbishment and the practical requirements of older workshop equipment. Relevant knowledge of machine condition, suitable replacements and ongoing spares support can help customers make informed decisions about their machinery.
2. Manual machine tool servicing
We are interested in subcontractors experienced in planned machine tool servicing, including checking wear, movement, lubrication and general machine condition. Regular maintenance can help identify developing issues and reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns.

Experienced engineers may be able to support on-site fault finding and breakdown repairs to help return machine tools to working condition. This includes diagnosing machine faults and identifying practical repair options. Experience with grinder spindle, feed and movement issues is also valuable when addressing problems affecting finish and accuracy.

We welcome enquiries from businesses with experience in identifying and sourcing machine tool spare parts, particularly for established and older machinery. Knowledge of Myford, Jones & Shipman, Colchester and Bridgeford spares is especially relevant.
