Equipment Overhaul from Dowding & Mills - market leaders in Engineering, Calibration & Electronics.

Equipment overhaul is a necessary process to maintain high levels of efficiency, performance and reliability of all types of plant and equipment. The rate of deterioration of equipment depends upon the duty, operating cycle and properties of the materials being handled, a regular overhaul will reduce maintenance and operating expenditure without incurring production losses.

Through an extensive branch network Dowding & Mills can cost effectively overhaul and recondition a wide range of plant and equipment. Projects are configured to meet individual customer requirements and range from initial strip-down and inspection through to reinstallation and commissioning.

Reconditioning is often the quickest and most cost-effective method of returning equipment to service. Components can be rebuilt or manufactured in Dowding & Mills workshops to avoid protracted delivery times for new equipment and spare parts. Reconditioning also avoids additional costs and delays arising from modifications to associated plant to accommodate new equipment.

PUMP REPAIRS

Pumps play a key role in most industrial processes and their efficiency and performance has a significant effect on the operating expenditure of many companies. Efficiency and performance deteriorates in-service, increasing energy costs as internal clearances open up and flow passages become roughened due to wear, erosion, corrosion and cavitation.

Dowding & Mills has extensive engineering expertise and experience in pump repairs, which encompasses overhauling and reconditioning complete pump sets from the driver and its control system through to the pump itself, single and multi stage centrifugal pumps and reciprocating and rotary positive displacement pumps.

COMPRESSOR REPAIRS

Using the specialist facilities at Fridgemotors, all types of refrigeration and air conditioning compressors are remanufactured. In addition to a full electrical overhaul or rewind, all refrigeration/air conditioning compressors are stripped, cleaned and inspected before re-manufacturing takes place, using new OEM produced components, seals and gaskets. Units will have a light load run before a full leak endurance test at the manufacturer's recommended pressures and duration.

Ex-stock availability of most re-manufactured compressors and a fast turn-around for non-stock items.

GEARBOX REPAIRS

All types and size of gearbox repairs can be overhauled within the branch network.

In-house designing and manufacturing facilities mean that gearboxes can be manufactured completely within the group's facilities to meet customers' specifications.

POWER PRESS REFURBISHMENT

The automotive and white goods industries use Dowding & Mills' services for the overhaul of power presses and their components. Dowding & Mills has an exclusive agreement with Clearing International to provide its entire off site workshop requirements and spares support service.
