PRECISION OD & ID GRINDING AND TURNING
SPECIALIZING IN THE REPAIR AND MANUFACTURE OF CYLINDRICAL COMPONENTS
SHAFTS, SPINDLES, ROLLS, RODS, MANDRELS, PINS, AND MORE
SINGLE PIECE OR PRODUCTION RUNS.
NEW FABRICATION
Meadville Plating has the capabilities to finish grind and machine to
exacting specifications. Tolerances of .0002” are common. Cylindrical
grinder and lathe capacities of up to 20" diameters and 87” in
length and weight capacities of 1,500 lbs allow us the ability to handle
a large range of components. Our repair services have provided our customers
with untold savings, both in time and money. Our machining department
can manufacture new cylindrical products or components to OEM specifications,
part drawings or by referencing an existing component. In the majority
of cases we can manufacture your component at a greatly reduced cost
when compared to the cost of OEM.
REPAIR AND SALVAGE
Repairs with Hard Chrome
Increased Service Life, Less Down Time, Lower Maintenance Costs, Less
Hassle
Utilizing Hard
Chrome Plating (68 Rc) to repair high wear surfaces can increase
the life of the part two to three times over the originally manufactured
product. Please see our industrial hard chrome page for more information.
Repairs with Hard Sulfamate Nickel?
Machinable, Thick Deposits, Hard 48Rc., Excellent Corrosion Protection
By utilizing our Hard
Sulfamate Nickel, we are able to salvage components that have sustained
extreme wear or damage.. Our machining department will pre-machine
the damaged surface to prepare it for plating. We then apply our
Machinable Alloy Plating and finish machine or grind to the original
finished dimensions. The result is a component equal to or better
than the original part, and in most cases, at a cost much less than that
of new. With MAP deposits of over .100” are possible. MAP
will not cause stresses or affect the properties of the substrate like
repairs with weld. The use of MAP also provides extreme corrosion
protection to the finished component. In severe ware applications
we can apply a layer of hard chrome over MAP to provide even more protection
and extend service life.
Our ability to complete the entire process in house allows us the capability
to provide superior delivery and very competitive pricing.
