CNC Machine and Large Machinery Cover

Every cover fabricated from the machine drawing

The problem it prevents

A machine tool is sold on its accuracy. A corroded slideway destroys that permanently.

The machine is worth a fortune, and the surface that decides its value is a few microns thick. It cannot be polished out.

Machine tools have exposed slideways, ballscrews and precision ground surfaces that corrode from the lightest condensation, inside an enclosure too large for any standard packaging.

What it is

Covers are made to the machine's own dimensions in the material and shape required, for machines of any size.

The same capability covers mechanical power presses, punching machines, industrial machinery and machine components of any shape.

Key features

  • Made for machines of any size and shape
  • Protects slideways, ballscrews and precision ground surfaces
  • VCI option for exposed machined surfaces
  • Suitable for export crating and sea freight
  • Vacuum laminate construction for high precision equipment

How we build it

There is no standard size in this work at all. Every cover is fabricated from the machine drawing. Our ability to work to any size and shape, and to combine that with VCI and vacuum laminate, is the core capability of this whole section.
