Modernising outdated thread rollers 29 October 2024

With a philosophy to not discard anything, TLM Srl is specialising in a comprehensive reconditioning process for TLM machines, or those from other manufacturers, to update, modernise and make older machines more efficient.

Recently, the Italian manufacturer acquired a very old thread rolling machine from a client, one of the first built by TLM and completely overhauled and modernised it by updating its transmission. Today, this thread roller is hard to distinguish from a new machine, having been transformed into a combined machine by adding a state of the art pointing machine at the rear. 

TLM explains: “We examine the condition of the machinery and evaluate with our clients the most cost-effective actions to undertake. This model of thread rolling machine upgrade ensures savings on purchase costs, easier adjustment and includes a specific warranty. The result is clearly visible – a thread roller that looks new, with the versatility of a combined machine.”
