DETCO has access to used transfer line slide units, which are completely disassembled and re-furbished by DETCO craftsmen. Commercial parts, i.e.: pumps, ballscrews, etc. are purchased. DETCO components, i.e.: ways, gibs, keepers are manufactured to suit and replaced. The main components, i.e.: bases, tables/platens are surface ground or scraped where required by DETCO craftsmen, and restored to original OEM specifications.

DETCO works with many transfer line OEM’s in building original equipment slide units. The OEM provides either raw castings or patterns. When provided with patterns, DETCO secures castings from the foundry. All castings are machined and surface ground or scraped where necessary. DETCO craftsmen then assemble, fit, and test run the units similar to the procedure used when rebuilding slide units. In addition, DETCO is capable of assembling many different large and small assemblies, of any kind. Do not hesitate to ask.

DETCO also has the ability to refurbish small and medium size machinery in the same manner as refurbishing transfer line slide units. In addition, DETCO is capable of assembling many different, large and small assemblies, of any kind. We will consider all inquiries.

DETCO personnel can refurbish equipment in customer facilities or in a DETCO facility.
