Machine Relocations

Relocating heavy machinery requires precision, planning, and expertise. Whether you’re moving a single CNC machine or an entire production line, our professional machine relocation services ensure minimal downtime, maximum safety, and complete operational efficiency.

Why Choose Us For Your Machine Relocation?

Industrial machinery is delicate and expensive, making improper relocation a costly risk. Our expert team ensures that every move is executed safely and efficiently, preventing damage and costly disruptions. With our detailed planning and risk assessments, we minimise downtime and ensure your machines arrive at their destination in perfect working order. Once reinstalled, we carefully align and calibrate your equipment to maintain optimal performance. Additionally, we adhere to all health and safety regulations, providing you with complete peace of mind throughout the relocation process.

The Benefits of Our Professional Machine Relocation

Investing in professional machine relocation services provides several key benefits. By using structured methods, we minimise downtime and ensure that your machinery is moved and reinstalled swiftly, reducing production delays. Our expert dismantling techniques and secure packing methods prevent damage during transport, while precision installation and calibration ensure your equipment performs at its best without the need for extensive adjustments. Additionally, we ensure full compliance with industry safety regulations, offering peace of mind and cost savings by preventing misalignment, breakdowns, and expensive repairs.

Several precautions must be taken to ensure a smooth relocation process. A pre-move assessment evaluates machinery, site conditions, and access points to plan the best strategy. We mitigate risks such as uneven floors or confined spaces and use proper lifting equipment like cranes and forklifts to avoid damage. During transport, components are packed securely with anti-vibration materials. Once the equipment reaches its new location, our team performs reinstallation and alignment checks to guarantee that everything is in full working order before operation resumes.

Our Machine Relocation Process

1. Pre-Move Assessment & Planning

Every relocation begins with a comprehensive site survey. Our experts evaluate the machinery specifications, facility layout, and logistics challenges to develop a detailed relocation strategy. We identify critical factors such as machine weight, dimensions, lifting points, and access restrictions to ensure a smooth transition. Additionally, we assess the electrical and mechanical disconnection requirements to avoid any complications during the move.

2. Dismantling & Secure Packing

Once planning is complete, our technicians carefully dismantle the machinery, ensuring that each component is handled with precision. Sensitive parts, including ball screws, linear guides, and spindles, are protected using specialist wrapping and shock-absorbing materials. Components are labelled and stored securely to prevent mix-ups during reassembly.

3. Safe Transportation & Logistics

We coordinate transportation using specialised vehicles equipped to handle heavy loads. Our logistics team ensures that each machine is securely fastened and protected against road vibrations, temperature changes, and external impacts. Whether it’s a short internal move or a long-distance relocation, we take every precaution to ensure the safe arrival of your equipment.

4. Reinstallation, Calibration & Alignment

Upon arrival, our team carefully reinstalls the machinery, reconnecting all mechanical and electrical systems. Using precision instruments, we conduct alignment and calibration procedures to restore the machine’s accuracy and efficiency. Our goal is to ensure that your equipment operates as if it was never moved, eliminating any risk of performance issues.To maintain peak performance, we provide scheduled servicing, including filter replacements, system inspections, and efficiency checks.

5. Final Testing & Operational Verification

Before completing the relocation, we conduct extensive functional testing to confirm that the machinery operates correctly. This includes checking spindle runout, backlash, coolant flow, and other critical performance factors. Our team remains on-site to make final adjustments and provide guidance on restarting operations smoothly.
