When a replacement component is unavailable or a fabricated assembly needs machined features, Protech can machine custom parts and coordinate them with laser cutting, welding and fabrication.
Machining is often the missing step between a fabricated part and a working piece of equipment. Pin bores, shafts, bushings, spacers, threaded components, mounting features and custom repair parts can require dimensions and finishes that fabrication alone cannot provide.
Protech uses its machining capability for stand-alone parts and as part of larger fabrication projects. That combination is especially useful when repairing agricultural or construction equipment where the replacement part may be discontinued, backordered or not available in the exact configuration needed.
Where practical, an existing component can provide dimensions and geometry for a replacement part.
DXF, STEP, drawings and dimensional information can be reviewed to determine an efficient manufacturing route.
Machined features can be combined with laser cutting, welding and fabrication instead of coordinating multiple suppliers.
Potentially, yes. Protech can review an existing part, drawing or CAD model to determine whether a replacement can be manufactured economically.
No. Machined components can be quoted as stand-alone repair or custom parts as well as components used in larger Protech assemblies.
STEP files, dimensioned drawings, PDFs and clear photos are useful. For repair work, the existing part may also be needed for inspection and measurement.
Send the application details, photos, drawings or CAD files and we’ll review the job before pricing it.
