Understanding the basic difference between machine tool retrofit, remanufacture and rebuild process

Friday, April 4th, 2008

A retrofit essentially comprises ‘replacing the machine’s control’. Retrofits are generally executed at the customer’s location, saving downtime as well as transportation cost. Machines in good condition are best suitable for retrofits. Many of the components can be replaced or added, such as spindle motor and/or spindle drive, re-wire of the machine tool, and new feedback devices. (more…)
