A Roberts brothers clam shell pipe cutting machine was sent to Mirage to investigate the possibility of refurbishment and overhaul. The machine main bearing needed complete overhaul and the toolpost systems were replaced with Mirage's own split frame toolpost.

Sir Meccanica WS3 line boring machine
When brought into Mirage the drive and feed of this machine had been otally destroyed, we set up a meeting with the client and decided the best course of action was to adapt our hydraulic LB60 drive and feed mechanism to the original WS3 boring bars , tool posts and end supports and thsi resulted in a machine that is now prepared for more arduous conditions than previously attempted. |
Silk - 1445
A customer brought in a AX1445 for refurbishment after heavy use overseas. The main drive and some gearbox parts were replaced and the machine was operational after only 10 days in our factory.
