Servicing of the Labotom-3 Abrasive Cutter

Spectrographic supply a full refurbishment and servicing package, transforming your machines from zero to hundred. This ensures the machine is fully rejuvenated, minus the usual expense, by:

• Improving machine performance and precision
• Minimising disruption from machine down-time         
• Minimising machinery depreciation

Starting off in need of a clean, a full refurbishment of the vices, a new return spring and repair of the lid gas strut, the Labotom-3 Abrasive Cutter was going to be a big job.

First of all the machine was totally stripped, to allow for a thorough and efficient clean.

Cleaning of the Labotom was vital to allow the machine to be painted to a high standard. The above and right pictures show before and after the clean, highlighting the vast aesthetic improvement.

To allow for better viewing, the service team went the extra mile and fit an LED lamp, as well as providing a full refurbishment of both vices to ensure they are working as new.

As well as working like new it is always important to us that the machine feels like new. This meant fitting a new gas strut, as well as making adjustments to the return spring, with a new part. As well as working and feeling like new the final touch was to make it look that way, ensuring a full rejuvenation. This meant a fresh paint job on the lid, meaning the machine would look good, and fit nicely into any lab for the many years of service that it had left.
