Emergency Breakdowns and Engineering Repairs

We were contacted by our customer as they had an emergency breakdown; their roller had broken up in the plant which caused their processing plant to be shutdown.

The roller was delivered to us to use as a pattern to work from. We had previously carried out similar work so we had all the details on file which enabled us to refer back to. This made the job quicker to carry out as our staff already knew what was required.

Materials involved were: flat strip and tube, guillotined plate, location hubs, shaft machining. Machines involved were: guillotine, spiral section rollers, welders (mag welding) lathes. Painted in our spray shop to the customer’s colours.

The customer was contacting us frequently so the production would be back up and running at their end. This breakdown work was turned around in 1 day.

The customer gave us a fantastic feedback and was very satisfied. RB Engineering works on all their breakdown work as we are very quick on turnaround times. This quick action by RB Engineering saved the company thousands of pounds of potential downtime.
