I know every job is different but maybe a idea on prices?

Thanks for the reply David.

many factors can dictate the prices including, travel expenses, machines used, size of bores and materials used for bushing or sleeves. Usually we aim for a day rate in the realms of £800-£1000 per day.
Some of the machines we use may need to be hired so that can also change the price.

Time scales of repairs are also dictated by the severity and size of the damage

I hope this helps as a brief guide. My website www.industrialfirldservices.co.uk should be up and running by the end of the month if you wish to visit this when online

kind regards

Speaking from experiance the quality of peoples workman ship offering these services varies greatly!

How ever if your any good at it do post some videos, its not such a boring job as the title surgests i quite like watching them and bore welding etc on different jobs.

Theres a lot of skill and tricks to do it well, i've had a few really poor attemps from different guys in the past but have since found one decent guy that knows how to do a good finish.

Here's some photos of jobs I've completed in the past with my previous employers before starting IFS, Not just boring jobs but In-situ crankshaft machining on an Msc container ship stranded in the sea due to a seized shell, machined to a 0.001" tolerance and level within 0.010 MM/M to the main bearing, also some crank recovery in there from a diesel train.

not to mention the boring of a tapered rudder stock on a P&O ferry or the portable Milling on a rolling stand in a steel works.

I have videos of the process but can't seem to upload them direct.

There's a good engineer nr Bury St Edmunds does similar. He recently came here to remove the hinge pins on my 8m twose rolls with a thermal lance

As a new user You may need to post a few random posts to enable stuff on the forum? Or change the file video is on maybe?

I was sort of meaning like a farmer would like to know how much the new boom pin pivot would be welded and bored out
Round here everyone seems to quote say 100 a hole if you get what i mean plus travel etc

 

[Fendtbro]

Sounds a useful service but £100? An hour sounds virtually double what the machine shops charges? Think I would cart the job to our local engineering outfit for a few hundred of a saving, And Agri doesn’t pay like the plant job can. But a quick question please?? Would you tackling shovel arms, take into account of the backframe/bucket centres before starting the job? Starting boring not knowing the exact width that the bushing centres will be ultimately held at is the start of a bad job surely, given that the arms flex about all over the place when the frames get welded in the factory. We’ve just been caught out with this..

 

[Barleymow]

Has quote to do main carriage pin on jcb 525 58 was £500 to line bore etc
