Bearings can often run so hot that they can result in a seizure. But it is not only the bearings and races that can be compromised, it’s the chocks and the rolls—impacting the performance in your process. Journal damage can be costly in more ways than one. By returning your journals to the proper tolerances, MP&P repair services will improve your roll’s performance and keep it in production for extended use in your facility.

Plus, MP&P saves you money and lost production time.

When a roll has to be sent to us, your goal is to get it back online. One way we approach that is to restore the original dimensions rather than replacing the journals. If journals require replacement due to extensive wear, then we will do so, and in either case, get your roll back online quickly. Our engineering team has met many complex and severe challenges and saved customers from disaster.

There are times when production rolls or print cylinders require complete reconditioning, but sometimes a simple repair to the journal, or a re-stubbing of journals may be all it takes to keep your production line running effectively.

The cost of repairing a journal, versus replacing or reconditioning an entire roll or cylinder will reduce maintenance costs. Replacing and repairing journals has been an important part of how we save money for our customers every day.

Our engineering team is ready to take action so you can minimize loss. It would be to your advantage to contact us today.  203. 574.5400
