Bespoke Machining Solutions

When you are looking for a solution to you machining needs occasional only a bespoke machine will do. At Reekie Machining we have been involved in numerous special machines builds utilising that latest of technologies.

Welding

We can provide DNV approved and qualified welding procedures to compliment our insitu machining repairs including overlays on shafts, bores and sealing faces. Our automated bore welder can be used on bores and shafts.

Spark Erosion

For extremely hard materials or broken tooling we can offer spark erosion as an alternative to machining

Metrology & Precision Measurement

When your project calls for tight dimensional and geometrical tolerances that cannot be easily measured conventionally, our team are highly skilled in using the latest measurement technologies including Faro Arms, Laser trackers and Easy laser measuring equipment.

Turning

When requirements for on site turning arise, Reekie Machining have years of experience in repairing tubular components of all shapes and sizes. Typical applications include motor, gearbox shafts and fan shafts.

Size

  • Up to 550mm Ø and 435mm length
  • Larger diameters can be machined by utilizing shaft’s own bearings and drive systems, Reekie slides / slideways are mounted parallel to shaft and machine to requirement
  • Machines can be modified / sourced for other requirements

Ability

  • Turning operations performed on shafts, pins or other cylinders, concentric or eccentric to required datums
  • Surface finishes up to Ra0.8μm when fitted with grinding and finishing attachments
  • Screwing cutting using turning machines/ boring machines to give required thread form and pitch configurations
  • Option of dual power sources
