Refurbish and upgrade
We can rebuild and upgrade all types of headboxes: air pad, hydraulic and atmospheric
Headboxes are rebuilt as per our standards to like-new condition to meet your specifications. Upon request, Mecfab will analyze your existing headbox’s capacities and propose the best solution. We can readjust all mechanisms and refurbish all the systems that are not at their best. All our rebuilds are done using either solid stainless steel, stainless steel clad on mild steel or other non-corrosive materials.
Advantages and benefits of a rebuild:
- Expense can be allocated to your maintenance budget instead of being accounted as a capital investment
- Quick return on investment
- Custom rebuild to your paper machine requirements
- Much less expensive than a new headbox
- Shorter delivery time than a new headbox
- Possibility of reconditioning on site during a shutdown
- Highest quality of polishing thanks to excellent workmanship and quality control
