Slitter head and leveler repair services
SMS group can expertly restore vital processing line components, such as slitter heads and levelers, to OEM specifications. And because Pro-Eco equipment was made by an SMS group company, we have access to the original drawings and any required technical information. Our expert slitter head repair includes aligning the arbors and base plate; carefully measuring arbor run out; measuring axial and radial loaded bearing and eccentric slop; and making height adjustments to minimize backlash.
We also expertly service all types of levelers. Typically the leveler is disassembled; bearings and bearing housings are carefully checked and repaired or replaced; and leveler frames are restored to original design specifications. The leveler is then carefully reassembled, calibrated, reinstalled and precisely aligned in the field.
Our slitter head and leveler services insure that equipment is precisely restored to OEM dimensions and tolerances so that it performs like new and production output and product quality is optimized.
Mandrels, chocks and shear repairs
We have the equipment and expertise to repair uncoiler and recoiler mandrels; chocks; and mechanical and flying shears to OEM specifications. Because our field service technicians can perform field inspections, mandrel issues can be identified and repairs can be made in the field minimizing line downtime.
